Emerging role of immunogenic cell death in cancer immunotherapy: Advancing next-generation CAR-T cell immunotherapy by combination. Cancer Lett 2024:217079. [PMID: 38936505 DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2024.217079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a stress-driven form of regulated cell death (RCD) in which dying tumor cells' specific signaling pathways are activated to release damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), leading to the robust anti-tumor immune response as well as a reversal of the tumor immune microenvironment from "cold" to "hot". Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, as a landmark in anti-tumor immunotherapy, plays a formidable role in hematologic malignancies but falls short in solid tumors. The Gordian knot of CAR-T cells for solid tumors includes but is not limited to, tumor antigen heterogeneity or absence, physical and immune barriers of tumors. The combination of ICD induction therapy and CAR-T cell immunotherapy is expected to promote the intensive use of CAR-T cell in solid tumors. In this review, we summarize the characteristics of ICD, stress-responsive mechanism, and the synergistic effect of various ICD-based therapies with CAR-T cells to effectively improve anti-tumor capacity.

Bak S, Kim KS, Na K. Human adipose-derived stem cells genetically programmed to induce necroptosis for cancer immunotherapy. Cancer Gene Ther 2024:10.1038/s41417-024-00794-4. [PMID: 38858535 DOI: 10.1038/s41417-024-00794-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024]
Abstract
Herein, we present human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) inserted with the receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIP3) gene (RP@ADSCs), which induces cell necroptosis, for tumor immunotherapy. Necroptosis has characteristics of both apoptosis, such as programmed cell death, and necrosis, such as swelling and plasma membrane rupture, during which damage-related molecular patterns are released, triggering an immune response. Therefore, necroptosis has the potential to be used as an effective anticancer immunotherapy. RP@ADSCs were programmed to necroptosis after a particular time after being injected in vivo, and various pro-inflammatory cytokines secreted during the stem cell death process stimulated the immune system, showing local and sustained anticancer effects. It was confirmed that RIP3 protein expression increased in ADSCs after RP transfection. RP@ADSCs continued to induce ADSCs death for 7 days, and various pro-inflammatory cytokines were secreted through ADSCs death. The efficacy of RP@ADSCs-mediated immunotherapy was evaluated in mouse models bearing GL-26 (glioblastoma) and K1735 (melanoma), and it was found that RP resulted in an increase in the population of long-term cytotoxic T cells and a decrease in the population of regulatory T cells. This shows that RP@ADSCs have potential and applicability as an excellent anticancer immunotherapy agent in clinical practice.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common gastrointestinal tract diseases with significant morbidity and mortality. Current treatments remain unspecific and supportive due to the severity and clinical course of AP, which can fluctuate rapidly and unpredictably. Mitochondria, cellular power plant to produce energy, are involved in a variety of physiological or pathological activities in human body. There is a growing evidence indicating that mitochondria damage-associated molecular patterns (mtDAMPs) play an important role in pathogenesis and progression of AP. With the pro-inflammatory properties, released mtDAMPs may damage pancreatic cells by binding with receptors, activating downstream molecules and releasing inflammatory factors. This review focuses on the possible interaction between AP and mtDAMPs, which include cytochrome c (Cyt c), mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM), mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), cardiolipin (CL), adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and succinate, with focus on experimental research and potential therapeutic targets in clinical practice. Preventing or diminishing the release of mtDAMPs or targeting the mtDAMPs receptors might have a role in AP progression.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a programmed cell death pathway, has been demonstrated to be activated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the precise role of necroptosis and its correlation with immune cell infiltration in AD remains unclear. In this study, we conducted non-negative matrix factorization clustering analysis to identify three subtypes of AD based on necroptosis-relevant genes. Notably, these subtypes exhibited varying necroptosis scores, clinical characteristics and immune infiltration signatures. Cluster B, characterized by high necroptosis scores, showed higher immune cell infiltration and was associated with a more severe pathology, potentially representing a high-risk subgroup. To identify potential biomarkers for AD within cluster B, we employed two machine learning algorithms: the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and Random Forest. Subsequently, we identified eight feature genes (CARTPT, KLHL35, NRN1, NT5DC3, PCYOX1L, RHOQ, SLC6A12, and SLC38A2) that were utilized to develop a diagnosis model with remarkable predictive capacity for AD. Moreover, we conducted validation using bulk RNA-seq, single-nucleus RNA-seq, and in vivo experiments to confirm the expression of these feature genes. In summary, our study identified a novel necroptosis-related subtype of AD and eight diagnostic biomarkers, explored the roles of necroptosis in AD progression and shed new light for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the leading causes of cancer‑related mortality worldwide, is challenging to identify in its early stages and prone to metastasis, and the prognosis of patients with this disease is poor. Treatment options for HCC are limited, with even radical treatments being associated with a risk of recurrence or transformation in the short term. Furthermore, the multi‑tyrosine kinase inhibitors approved for first‑line therapy have marked drawbacks, including drug resistance and side effects. The rise and breakthrough of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have provided a novel direction for HCC immunotherapy but these have the drawback of low response rates. Since avoiding apoptosis is a universal feature of cancer, the induction of non‑apoptotic regulatory cell death (NARCD) is a novel strategy for HCC immunotherapy. At present, NARCD pathways, including ferroptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis, are novel potential forms of immunogenic cell death, which have synergistic effects with antitumor immunity, transforming immune 'cold' tumors into immune 'hot' tumors and exerting antitumor effects. Therefore, these pathways may be targeted as a novel treatment strategy for HCC. In the present review, the roles of ferroptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis in antitumor immunity in HCC are discussed, and the relevant targets and signaling pathways, and the current status of combined therapy with ICIs are summarized. The prospects of targeting ferroptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis in HCC immunotherapy are also considered.

Abstract
Preeclampsia (PE) is considered as a disease of placental origin. However, the specific mechanism of placental abnormalities remains elusive. This study identified thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) is downregulated in preeclamptic placentae and negatively correlated with blood pressure. Functional studies show that THBS1 knockdown inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion and increases the cycle arrest and apoptosis rate of HTR8/SVneo cells. Importantly, THBS1 silencing induces necroptosis in HTR8/SVneo cells, accompanied by the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Necroptosis inhibitors necrostatin-1 and GSK'872 restore the trophoblast survival while pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK has no effect. Mechanistically, the results show that THBS1 interacts with transforming growth factor B-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), which is a central modulator of necroptosis quiescence and affects its stability. Moreover, THBS1 silencing up-regulates the expression of neuronal precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated 4 (NEDD4), which acts as an E3 ligase of TAK1 and catalyzes K48-linked ubiquitination of TAK1 in HTR8/SVneo cells. Besides, THBS1 attenuates PE phenotypes and improves the placental necroptosis in vivo. Taken together, the down-regulation of THBS1 destabilizes TAK1 by activating NEDD4-mediated, K48-linked TAK1 ubiquitination and promotes necroptosis and DAMPs release in trophoblast cells, thus participating in the pathogenesis of PE.

Abstract
The disialoganglioside, GD2, is a promising therapeutic target due to its overexpression in certain tumors, particularly neuroblastoma (NB), with limited expression in normal tissues. Despite progress, the intricate mechanisms of action and the full spectrum of the direct cellular responses to anti-GD2 antibodies remain incompletely understood. In this study, we examined the direct cytotoxic effects of the humanized anti-GD2 antibody hu14.18K322A (hu14) on NB cell lines, by exploring the associated cell-death pathways. Additionally, we assessed the synergy between hu14 and conventional induction chemotherapy drugs. Our results revealed that hu14 treatment induced direct cytotoxic effects in CHLA15 and SK-N-BE1 cell lines, with a pronounced impact on proliferation and colony formation. Apoptosis emerged as the predominant cell-death pathway triggered by hu14. Furthermore, we saw a reduction in GD2 surface expression in response to hu14 treatment. Hu14 demonstrated synergy with induction chemotherapy drugs with alterations in GD2 expression. Our comprehensive investigation provides valuable insights into the multifaceted effects of hu14 on NB cells, shedding light on its direct cytotoxicity, cell-death pathways, and interactions with induction chemotherapy drugs. This study contributes to the evolving understanding of anti-GD2 antibody therapy and its potential synergies with conventional treatments in the context of NB.

Abstract
In recent years, the incidence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has been steadily rising, emerging as a major chronic liver disease of global concern. The course of MASLD is varied, spanning from MASLD to metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH). MASH is an important contributor to cirrhosis, which may subsequently lead to hepatocellular carcinoma. It has been found that PANoptosis, an emerging inflammatory programmed cell death (PCD), is involved in the pathogenesis of MASLD and facilitates the development of NASH, eventually resulting in inflammatory fibrosis and hepatocyte death. This paper reviews the latest research progress on PANoptosis and MASLD to understand the mechanism of MASLD and provide new directions for future treatment and drug development.

Abstract
Necroptosis has been shown to contribute to myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI). This study aims to gain new insights into the signaling pathway of necroptosis in rat MIRI using RNA sequencing. MIRI was induced in male rats by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min, followed by reperfusion for 120 min. RNA sequencing was performed to obtain mRNA profiles of MIRI group and MIRI group treated with necrostatin-1 (Nec-1,an inhibitor of necroptosis). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were then identified. The DEGs were prominently enriched in the TNF-α signaling pathway, the MAPK signaling pathway and cytokine-cytokine receptor pathways. The majority of the results were associated with genes like Thumpd3,Egr2,Dot1l,Cyp1a1,Dbnl,which primarily regulate inflammatory response and apoptosis, particularly in myocardium. The above results suggested that Nec-1 might be involved in the regulation of necroptosis and the inflammatory response through the above-mentioned genes.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a lytic form of regulated cell death reported to contribute to inflammatory diseases of the gut, skin and lung, as well as ischemic-reperfusion injuries of the kidney, heart and brain. However, precise identification of the cells and tissues that undergo necroptotic cell death in vivo has proven challenging in the absence of robust protocols for immunohistochemical detection. Here, we provide automated immunohistochemistry protocols to detect core necroptosis regulators - Caspase-8, RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL - in formalin-fixed mouse and human tissues. We observed surprising heterogeneity in protein expression within tissues, whereby short-lived immune barrier cells were replete with necroptotic effectors, whereas long-lived cells lacked RIPK3 or MLKL expression. Local changes in the expression of necroptotic effectors occurred in response to insults such as inflammation, dysbiosis or immune challenge, consistent with necroptosis being dysregulated in disease contexts. These methods will facilitate the precise localisation and evaluation of necroptotic signaling in vivo.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a pivotal contributor to the pathogenesis of various human diseases, including those affecting the nervous system, cardiovascular system, pulmonary system, and kidneys. Extensive investigations have elucidated the mechanisms and physiological ramifications of necroptosis. Among these, protein phosphorylation emerges as a paramount regulatory process, facilitating the activation or inhibition of specific proteins through the addition of phosphate groups to their corresponding amino acid residues. Currently, the targeting of kinases has gained recognition as a firmly established and efficacious therapeutic approach for diverse diseases, notably cancer. In this comprehensive review, we elucidate the intricate role of phosphorylation in governing key molecular players in the necroptotic pathway. Moreover, we provide an in-depth analysis of recent advancements in the development of kinase inhibitors aimed at modulating necroptosis. Lastly, we deliberate on the prospects and challenges associated with the utilization of kinase inhibitors to modulate necroptotic processes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the systematic review is to verify the presence of PANoptosis in periodontitis based on the published literatures studying cell death in periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a comprehensive review of literature studying the types of cell death in vitro cellular experiments, in vivo rodent studies and clinical studies from three major databases: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The present systematic review was recorded in the PROSPERO database, under registration number CRD42022383456. RESULTS In total, 51 articles were included in this study. Our analysis of in vitro cell models revealed that pyroptosis, necroptosis, and apoptosis could be induced by periodontal pathogens in macrophages, fibroblasts, stem cells, and periodontal ligament cells. Furthermore, three types of cell death were detected in in vivo rodent periodontitis models. Clinical studies on human periodontitis tissue specimens and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) showed that some key proteins related to pyroptosis, necroptosis, and apoptosis were elevated in periodontitis. CONCLUSIONS Various studies have established similar in vivo and in vitro models with three modes of death detected under the same conditions, revealing complex interactions between different types of cell death pathways in periodontitis and the potential for PANoptosis to occur in periodontitis.

Abstract
Emerging research into metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) up until January 2024 has highlighted the critical role of cuproptosis, a unique cell death mechanism triggered by copper overload, in the disease's development. This connection offers new insights into MASLD's complex pathogenesis, pointing to copper accumulation as a key factor that disrupts lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The identification of cuproptosis as a significant contributor to MASLD underscores the potential for targeting copper-mediated pathways for novel therapeutic approaches. This promising avenue suggests that managing copper levels could mitigate MASLD progression, offering a fresh perspective on treatment strategies. Further investigations into how cuproptosis influences MASLD are essential for unraveling the detailed mechanisms at play and for identifying effective interventions. The focus on copper's role in liver health opens up the possibility of developing targeted therapies that address the underlying causes of MASLD, moving beyond symptomatic treatment to tackle the root of the problem. The exploration of cuproptosis in the context of MASLD exemplifies the importance of understanding metal homeostasis in metabolic diseases and represents a significant step forward in the quest for more effective treatments. This research direction lights path for innovative MASLD management and reversal.

Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), a member of the receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) family with serine/threonine protein kinase activity, interacts with RIPK1 to generate necrosomes, which trigger caspase-independent programmed necrosis. As a vital component of necrosomes, RIPK3 plays an indispensable role in necroptosis, which is crucial for human life and health. In addition, RIPK3 participates in the pathological process of several infections, aseptic inflammatory diseases, and tumors (including tumor-promoting and -suppressive activities) by regulating autophagy, cell proliferation, and the metabolism and production of chemokines/cytokines. This review summarizes the recent research progress of the regulators of the RIPK3 signaling pathway and discusses the potential role of RIPK3/necroptosis in the aetiopathogenesis of various diseases. An in-depth understanding of the mechanisms and functions of RIPK3 may facilitate the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Redox Biol 2024; 70:103072.

Abstract
T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain-3 (Tim-3) is a versatile immunomodulator that protects against intestinal inflammation. Necroptosis is a type of cell death that regulates intestinal homeostasis and inflammation. The mechanism(s) underlying the protective role of macrophage Tim-3 in intestinal inflammation is unclear; thus, we investigated whether specific Tim-3 knockdown in macrophages drives intestinal inflammation via necroptosis. Tim-3 protein and mRNA expression were assessed via double immunofluorescence staining and single-cell RNA sequencing (sc-RNA seq), respectively, in the colonic tissues of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and healthy controls. Macrophage-specific Tim3-knockout (Tim-3M-KO) mice were generated to explore the function and mechanism of Tim-3 in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. Necroptosis was blocked by pharmacological inhibitors of receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIP)1, RIP3, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Additionally, in vitro experiments were performed to assess the mechanisms of neutrophil necroptosis induced by Tim-3 knockdown macrophages. Although Tim-3 is relatively inactive in macrophages during colon homeostasis, it is highly active during colitis. Compared to those in controls, Tim-3M-KO mice showed increased susceptibility to colitis, higher colitis scores, and increased pro-inflammatory mediator expression. Following the administration of RIP1/RIP3 or ROS inhibitors, a significant reduction in intestinal inflammation symptoms was observed in DSS-treated Tim-3M-KO mice. Further analysis indicated the TLR4/NF-κB pathway in Tim-3 knockdown macrophages mediates the TNF-α-induced necroptosis pathway in neutrophils. Macrophage Tim-3 regulates neutrophil necroptosis via intracellular ROS signaling. Tim-3 knockdown macrophages can recruit neutrophils and induce neutrophil necroptosis, thereby damaging the intestinal mucosal barrier and triggering a vicious cycle in the development of colitis. Our results demonstrate a protective role of macrophage Tim-3 in maintaining gut homeostasis by inhibiting neutrophil necroptosis and provide novel insights into the pathogenesis of IBD.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a form of necrosis, and alterations in mitochondrial dynamics, a coordinated process of mitochondrial fission and fusion, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to determine the role of mitochondrial morphology in canonical necroptosis induced by a combination of TNFα and zVAD (TNF/zVAD) in H9c2 cells, rat cardiomyoblasts. Time-course analyses of mitochondrial morphology showed that mitochondria were initially shortened after the addition of TNF/zVAD and then their length was restored, and the proportion of cells with elongated mitochondria at 12 h was larger in TNF/zVAD-treated cells than in non-treated cells (16.3 ± 0.9% vs. 8.0 ± 1.2%). The knockdown of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) and fission 1, fission promoters, and treatment with Mdivi-1, a Drp-1 inhibitor, had no effect on TNF/zVAD-induced necroptosis. In contrast, TNF/zVAD-induced necroptosis was attenuated by the knockdown of mitofusin 1/2 (Mfn1/2) and optic atrophy-1 (Opa1), proteins that are indispensable for mitochondrial fusion, and the attenuation of necroptosis was not canceled by treatment with Mdivi-1. The expression of TGFβ-activated kinase (TAK1), a negative regulator of RIP1 activity, was upregulated and the TNF/zVAD-induced RIP1-Ser166 phosphorylation, an index of RIP1 activity, was mitigated by the knockdown of Mfn1/2 or Opa1. Pharmacological TAK1 inhibition attenuated the protection afforded by Mfn1/2 and Opa1 knockdown. In conclusion, the inhibition of mitochondrial fusion increases TAK1 expression, leading to the attenuation of canonical necroptosis through the suppression of RIP1 activity.

[PMID: 38237325 PMCID: PMC10828597 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.103448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Currently, glycerol is the most effective cryoprotectant when combined with straw packaging for preserving chicken sperm. Glycerol, however, has toxic effects on sperm cells, which can reduce fertility when present in inseminated semen. Historically, the serial dilution (SD) method was developed to eliminate glycerol and mitigate its adverse effects. We have recently developed a new method for removing glycerol called sucrose-Percoll (SP), that can be performed at either 4°C (4°C-SP) or 20°C (20°C-SP). This SP protocol has been found to be simpler and faster to improve fertility compared to the traditional SD method. Nevertheless, the reasons for such effectiveness differences between glycerol removal procedures remained unclear and required more comprehensive understandings for future protocol developments. Here, we examined the effects of SP and SD protocols on the fertility duration. We also investigated the potential causes of varying effects of these methods by analyzing sperm quality parameters and sperm storage in the hen's reproductive tract. The fertility was significantly higher in 4°C-SP than 20°C-SP during the first 6 d after insemination, and also higher than sperm processed using SD. No difference was observed between 20°C-SP and SD between 7 and 13 d. However, a 2.7-time higher fertility was shown with 4°C-SP. In addition, the SP method demonstrated a 2-fold greater ability to remove glycerol than the SD method. Sperm centrifuged at 4°C-SP exhibited higher sperm storage compared to 20°C-SP and were higher than sperm treated with SD. Overall, our findings revealed that the differences in efficiencies between SP and SD methods were not related to in vitro sperm quality but resulted from a higher ability to remove glycerol, a higher storage capacity in the female reproductive tract, and a longer fertility ability. Since no impacts were observed in sperm cellular characteristics, further experiments are necessary to investigate the influences of glycerol removal treatments at the molecular level.

Abstract
Necroptosis is considered a programmed necrosis that requires receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), and pore-forming mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) to trigger a regulated cell membrane lysis. Membrane rupture in necroptosis has been shown to fuel innate immune response due to release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Recently published studies indicate that mature erythrocytes can undergo necroptosis as well. In this review, we provide an outline of multiple cell death modes occurring in erythrocytes, discuss possible immunological aspects of diverse erythrocyte cell deaths, summarize available evidence related to the ability of erythrocytes to undergo necroptosis, outline key involved molecular mechanisms, and discuss the potential implication of erythrocyte necroptosis in the physiology and pathophysiology. Furthermore, we aim to highlight the interplay between necroptosis and eryptosis signaling in erythrocytes, emphasizing specific characteristics of these pathways distinct from their counterparts in nucleated cells. Thus, our review provides a comprehensive summary of the current knowledge of necroptosis in erythrocytes. To reflect critical differences between necroptosis of nucleated cells and necroptosis of erythrocytes, we suggest a term erythronecroptosis for necroptosis of enucleated cells.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive dysfunction and loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). Several pathways of programmed cell death are likely to play a role in dopaminergic neuron death, such as apoptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis and ferroptosis, as well as cell death associated with proteasomal and mitochondrial dysfunction. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying dopaminergic neuron death could inform the design of drugs that promote neuron survival. Necroptosis is a recently characterized regulated cell death mechanism that exhibits morphological features common to both apoptosis and necrosis. It requires activation of an intracellular pathway involving receptor-interacting protein 1 kinase (RIP1 kinase, RIPK1), receptor-interacting protein 3 kinase (RIP3 kinase, RIPK3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL). The potential involvement of this programmed cell death pathway in the pathogenesis of PD has been studied by analysing biomarkers for necroptosis, such as the levels and oligomerization of phosphorylated RIPK3 (pRIPK3) and phosphorylated MLKL (pMLKL), in several PD preclinical models and in PD human tissue. Although there is evidence that other types of cell death also have a role in DA neuron death, most studies support the hypothesis that this cell death mechanism is activated in PD tissues. Drugs that prevent or reduce necroptosis may provide neuroprotection for PD. In this review, we summarize the findings from these studies. We also discuss how manipulating necroptosis might open a novel therapeutic approach to reduce neuronal degeneration in PD.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to identify the potential necroptosis related genes (NRGs)-associated miRNAs signature and explore the impact on the prognosis of stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD). METHODS Employing rigorous methodologies, we utilized univariate Cox, Lasso and multivariate Cox regression analyses to develop a prognostic signature. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) and ROC curves were applied to assess the prognostic value of signature in a training group and an independent test group. Furthermore, we conducted Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) for enrichment of tumor-related pathways. The risk score was calculated for each patient based on the expression of miRNAs which were enrolled in the signature. Patients were stratified into high- and low-risk groups. The immune cell infiltration and immunotherapy were compared between the two groups. Finally, the diagnostic potential of the miRNA was explored by RT-qPCR. RESULTS We constructed a prognostic model based on 6 NRGs-associated miRNAs. K-M plots underscored superior survival outcomes in the low-risk group. GSEA results revealed the enrichment of several tumor-related pathways in the high-risk group. Notably, CD8+ T cells, Tregs and activated memory CD4+ T cells exhibited negative correlations with the risk score. Additionally, a few immune checkpoint genes, such as CTLA4, PD1 and PD-L1, were significantly upregulated in the low-risk group. Furthermore, the serum expression levels of all these 6 miRNAs were significantly elevated in STAD patients. CONCLUSIONS Our study identified a robust risk score derived from a signature of 6 NRGs-associated miRNAs, demonstrating high efficacy for prognosis of STAD. These results not only contributed to our understanding of STAD pathogenesis, but also held promise for potential clinical applications, particularly in the realm of personalized immunotherapy for STAD patients.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the cardioprotective mechanism of exercise or exercise combined with inducible costimulatory molecules (ICOS) monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy against isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac remodeling. MAIN METHODS Totally 24 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (normal saline treatment), ISO group (subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol, 10 mg/kg/day, once daily for 5 consecutive days), the exercise with subcutaneous ISO injection group (EPI), and the exercise with injected with ISO and ICOS mAb group (EPII). The mice in EPI and EPII group were trained on a small animal treadmill for 4 weeks (13 m/min, 0% grade, 60min/day). KEY FINDINGS Exercise significantly attenuated CD45+, Mac-2 inflammatory cell infiltration, cardiac fibrosis and inhibited the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL/CaMKII and cardiomyocyte pyroptosis pathways to counter ISO-induced severe cardiac injury. The administration of the ICOS mAb may inhibit the cardioprotection of exercise against ISO-induced heart damage. Compared to those in EPI, our data showed that the increasing levels of myocardial fibrosis, the leukocyte infiltration of cardiac tissue and proteins expression of cardiac myocyte necrosis and pyroptosis signaling pathways in the EPII group. SIGNIFICANCE Our results demonstrated that exercise decreased leukocyte infiltration in heart, inhibited the cardiomyocyte pyroptosis and necroptosis signaling pathways, and attenuated inflammatory responses to alleviate ISO-induced cardiac fibrosis. However, the antifibrotic effects of combined treatment with exercise and ICOS mAb intervention did not exhibit synergistic enhancement.

Abstract
Historically considered a metabolically inert cellular layer separating the blood from the underlying tissue, the endothelium is now recognized as a highly dynamic, metabolically active tissue that is critical to organ homeostasis. Under homeostatic conditions, lung endothelial cells (ECs) in healthy subjects are quiescent, promoting vasodilation, platelet disaggregation, and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. In contrast, lung ECs are essential contributors to the pathobiology of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), as the quiescent endothelium is rapidly and radically altered upon exposure to environmental stressors, infectious pathogens, or endogenous danger signals into an effective and formidable regulator of innate and adaptive immunity. These dramatic perturbations, produced in a tsunami of inflammatory cascade activation, result in paracellular gap formation between lung ECs, sustained lung edema, and multi-organ dysfunction that drives ARDS mortality. The astonishing plasticity of the lung endothelium in negotiating this inflammatory environment and efforts to therapeutically target the aberrant ARDS endothelium are examined in further detail in this review.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a programmed cell death mechanism distinct from apoptosis, has garnered attention for its role in various pathological conditions. While initially recognized for its involvement in cell death, recent research has revealed that key necroptotic mediators, including receptor-interacting protein kinases (RIPKs) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), possess additional functions that go beyond inducing cell demise. These functions encompass influencing critical aspects of metabolic regulation, such as energy metabolism, glucose homeostasis, and lipid metabolism. Dysregulated necroptosis has been implicated in metabolic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD), contributing to chronic inflammation and tissue damage. This review provides insight into the multifaceted role of necroptosis, encompassing both cell death and these extra-necroptotic functions, in the context of metabolic diseases. Understanding this intricate interplay is crucial for developing targeted therapeutic strategies in diseases that currently lack effective treatments.

Abstract
Programmed cell death (PCD) is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism of cell suicide that is controlled by various signaling pathways. PCD plays an important role in a multitude of biological processes, such as cell turnover, development, tissue homeostasis and immunity. Some forms of PCD, including apoptosis, autophagy-dependent cell death, pyroptosis, ferroptosis and necroptosis, contribute to carcinogenesis and cancer development, and thus have attracted increasing attention in the field of oncology. Recently, increasing research-based evidence has demonstrated that PCD acts as a critical modulator of tumor immunity. PCD can affect the function of innate and adaptive immune cells, which leads to distinct immunological consequences, such as the priming of tumor-specific T cells, immunosuppression and immune evasion. Targeting PCD alone or in combination with conventional immunotherapy may provide new options to enhance the clinical efficacy of anticancer therapeutics. In this review, we introduce the characteristics and mechanisms of ubiquitous PCD pathways (e.g., apoptosis, autophagy-dependent cell death, pyroptosis and ferroptosis) and explore the complex interaction between these cell death mechanisms and tumor immunity based on currently available evidence. We also discuss the therapeutic potential of PCD-based approaches by outlining clinical trials targeting PCD in cancer treatment. Elucidating the immune-related effects of PCD on cancer pathogenesis will likely contribute to an improved understanding of oncoimmunology and allow PCD to be exploited for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Pneumonia remains a major global health challenge, necessitating the development of effective therapeutic approaches. Recently, necroptosis, a regulated form of cell death, has garnered attention in the fields of pharmacology and immunology for its role in the pathogenesis of pneumonia. Characterized by cell death and inflammatory responses, necroptosis is a key mechanism contributing to tissue damage and immune dysregulation in various diseases, including pneumonia. This review comprehensively analyzes the role of necroptosis in pneumonia and explores potential pharmacological interventions targeting this cell death pathway. Moreover, we highlight the intricate interplay between necroptosis and immune responses in pneumonia, revealing a bidirectional relationship between necrotic cell death and inflammatory signaling. Importantly, we assess current therapeutic strategies modulating necroptosis, encompassing synthetic inhibitors, natural products, and other drugs targeting key components of the programmed necrosis pathway. The article also discusses challenges and future directions in targeting programmed necrosis for pneumonia treatment, proposing novel therapeutic strategies that combine antibiotics with necroptosis inhibitors. This review underscores the importance of understanding necroptosis in pneumonia and highlights the potential of pharmacological interventions to mitigate tissue damage and restore immune homeostasis in this devastating respiratory infection.

Abstract
Several reports assume that myocardial necroptotic cell death is induced during the development of chronic heart failure. Although it is well accepted that angiotensin II induces apoptotic cell death of cardiac myocytes, the involvement of angiotensin II in the induction of myocardial necroptosis during the development of heart failure is still unknown. Therefore, we examined the role of angiotensin II in myocardial necroptosis using rat failing hearts following myocardial infarction and cultured cardiomyocytes. We found that administration of azilsartan, an angiotensin II AT1 receptor blocker, or trandolapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, to rats from the 2nd to the 8th week after myocardial infarction resulted in preservation of cardiac function and attenuation of mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) activation. Furthermore, the ratio of necroptotic cell death was increased in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes cultured with conditioned medium from rat cardiac fibroblasts in the presence of angiotensin II. This increase in necroptotic cells was attenuated by pretreatment with azilsartan. Furthermore, activated MLKL was increased in cardiomyocytes cultured in conditioned medium. Pretreatment with azilsartan also prevented the conditioned medium-induced increase in activated MLKL. These results suggest that angiotensin II contributes to the induction of myocardial necroptosis during the development of heart failure.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neuron degenerative disease among the old, characterized by uncontrollable movements and an impaired posture. Although widely investigated on its pathology and treatment, the disease remains incompletely understood. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has been applied to the area of PD, providing valuable data for related research. However, few works have taken deeper insights into the causes of neuron death and cell-cell interaction between the cell types in the brain. Our bioinformatics analyses revealed necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) enrichment in neuron degeneration and selecting the cells by NRGs levels showed two subtypes within the main degenerative cell types in the midbrain. NRG-low subtype was largely replaced by NRG-high subtype in the patients, indicating the striking change of cell state related to necroptosis in PD progression. Moreover, we carried out cell-cell interaction analyses between cell types and found that microglia (MG)'s interaction strength with glutamatergic neuron (GLU), GABAergic neuron (GABA), and dopaminergic neuron (DA) was significantly upregulated in PD. Also, MG show much stronger interaction with NRG-high subtypes and a stronger cell killing function in PD samples. Additionally, we identified CLDN11 as a novel interaction pattern specific to necroptosis neurons and MG. We also found LEF1 and TCF4 as key transcriptional regulators in neuron degeneration. These findings suggest that MG were significantly overactivated in PD patients to clear abnormal neurons, especially the NRG-high cells, explaining the neuron inflammation in PD. Our analyses provide insights into the causes of neuron death and inflammation in PD from single-cell resolution, which could be seriously considered in clinical trials.

Pratt MR, Vocadlo DJ. Understanding and exploiting the roles of O-GlcNAc in neurodegenerative diseases. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:105411. [PMID: 37918804 PMCID: PMC10687168 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2023.105411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
O-GlcNAc is a common modification found on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. Determining the catalytic mechanism of the enzyme O-GlcNAcase (OGA), which removes O-GlcNAc from proteins, enabled the creation of potent and selective inhibitors of this regulatory enzyme. Such inhibitors have served as important tools in helping to uncover the cellular and organismal physiological roles of this modification. In addition, OGA inhibitors have been important for defining the augmentation of O-GlcNAc as a promising disease-modifying approach to combat several neurodegenerative diseases including both Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. These studies have led to development and optimization of OGA inhibitors for clinical application. These compounds have been shown to be well tolerated in early clinical studies and are steadily advancing into the clinic. Despite these advances, the mechanisms by which O-GlcNAc protects against these various types of neurodegeneration are a topic of continuing interest since improved insight may enable the creation of more targeted strategies to modulate O-GlcNAc for therapeutic benefit. Relevant pathways on which O-GlcNAc has been found to exert beneficial effects include autophagy, necroptosis, and processing of the amyloid precursor protein. More recently, the development and application of chemical methods enabling the synthesis of homogenous proteins have clarified the biochemical effects of O-GlcNAc on protein aggregation and uncovered new roles for O-GlcNAc in heat shock response. Here, we discuss the features of O-GlcNAc in neurodegenerative diseases, the application of inhibitors to identify the roles of this modification, and the biochemical effects of O-GlcNAc on proteins and pathways associated with neurodegeneration.

Receptor interacting protein kinase-3 mediates both myopathy and cardiomyopathy in preclinical animal models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2023; 14:2520-2531. [PMID: 37909859 PMCID: PMC10751447 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13265] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive muscle degenerative disorder, culminating in a complete loss of ambulation, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and a fatal cardiorespiratory failure. Necroptosis is the form of necrosis that is dependent upon the receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) 3; it is involved in several inflammatory and neurodegenerative conditions. We previously identified RIPK3 as a key player in the acute myonecrosis affecting the hindlimb muscles of the mdx dystrophic mouse model. Whether necroptosis also mediates respiratory and heart disorders in DMD is currently unknown. METHODS Evidence of activation of the necroptotic axis was examined in dystrophic tissues from Golden retriever muscular dystrophy (GRMD) dogs and R-DMDdel52 rats. A functional assessment of the involvement of necroptosis in dystrophic animals was performed on mdx mice that were genetically depleted for RIPK3. Dystrophic mice aged from 12 to 18 months were analysed by histology and molecular biology to compare the phenotype of muscles from mdxRipk3+/+ and mdxRipk3-/- mice. Heart function was also examined by echocardiography in 40-week-old mice. RESULTS RIPK3 expression in sartorius and biceps femoris muscles from GRMD dogs positively correlated to myonecrosis levels (r = 0.81; P = 0.0076). RIPK3 was also found elevated in the diaphragm (P ≤ 0.05). In the slow-progressing heart phenotype of GRMD dogs, the phosphorylated form of RIPK1 at the Serine 161 site was dramatically increased in cardiomyocytes. A similar p-RIPK1 upregulation characterized the cardiomyocytes of the severe DMDdel52 rat model, associated with a marked overexpression of Ripk1 (P = 0.007) and Ripk3 (P = 0.008), indicating primed activation of the necroptotic pathway in the dystrophic heart. MdxRipk3-/- mice displayed decreased compensatory hypertrophy of the heart (P = 0.014), and echocardiography showed a 19% increase in the relative wall thickness (P < 0.05) and 29% reduction in the left ventricle mass (P = 0.0144). Besides, mdxRipk3-/- mice presented no evidence of a regenerative default or sarcopenia in skeletal muscles, moreover around 50% less affected by fibrosis (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our data highlight molecular and histological evidence that the necroptotic pathway is activated in degenerative tissues from dystrophic animal models, including the diaphragm and the heart. We also provide the genetic proof of concept that selective inhibition of necroptosis in dystrophic condition improves both histological features of muscles and cardiac function, suggesting that prevention of necroptosis is susceptible to providing multiorgan beneficial effects for DMD.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a type of caspase independent 'programmed or regulated' necrotic cell death that has a morphological resemblance to necrosis and mechanistic analogy to apoptosis. This type of cell death requires RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL, death receptors, toll like receptors, interferons, and various other proteins. Necroptosis is implicated in plethora of diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, Crohn's disease, and head and neck cancers including oral squamous cell carcinoma. Oral carcinomas show dysregulation or mutation of necroptotic proteins, mediate antitumoral immunity, activate immune response and control tumor progression. Necroptosis is known to play a dual role (pro tumorigenic and anti-tumorigenic) in cancer progression and targeting this pathway could be an effective approach in cancer therapy. Necroptosis based chemotherapy has been proposed in malignancies, highlighting the importance of necroptotic pathway to overcome apoptosis resistance and serve as a "fail-safe" pathway to modulate cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis. However, there is dearth of information regarding the use of necroptotic cell death mechanism in the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma. In this review, we summarise molecular mechanism of necroptosis, and its protumorigenic and antitumorigenic role in cancers to shed light on the possible therapeutic significance of necroptosis in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a common abdominal emergency with a high mortality rate and a lack of effective therapeutic options. Although mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation is a potential treatment for SAP, the mechanism remains unclear. It has been suggested that MSCs may act mainly through paracrine effects; therefore, we aimed to demonstrate the therapeutic efficacy of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) for SAP. Na-taurocholate was used to induce a rat SAP model through retrograde injection into the common biliopancreatic duct. After 72 h of EVs transplantation, pancreatic pathological damage was alleviated, along with a decrease in serum amylase activity and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. Interestingly, when UCMSCs were preconditioned with 10 ng/mL tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) for 48 h, the obtained EVs (named TNF-α-EVs) performed an enhanced efficacy. Furthermore, both animal and cellular experiments showed that TNF-α-EVs alleviated the necroptosis of acinar cells of SAP through RIPK3/MLKL axis. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that TNF-α-EVs were able to enhance the therapeutic effect on SAP by inhibiting necroptosis compared to normal EVs. This study heralds that TNF-α-EVs may be a promising therapeutic approach for SAP in the future.

Abstract
Host innate immunity plays a pivotal role in the early detection and neutralization of invading pathogens. Here, we show that pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase-like protein (MLKL) is required for host defence against Streptococcus pluranimalium infection by enhancing NLRP3 inflammasome activation and extracellular trap formation. Notably, Mlkl deficiency leads to increased mortality, increased bacterial colonization, severe destruction of organ architecture, and elevated inflammatory cell infiltration in murine models of S. pluranimalium pulmonary and systemic infection. In vivo and in vitro data provided evidence that potassium efflux-dependent NLRP3 inflammasome signalling downstream of active MLKL confers host protection against S. pluranimalium infection and initiates bacterial killing and clearance. Moreover, Mlkl deficiency results in defects in extracellular trap-mediated bactericidal activity. In summary, this study revealed that MLKL mediates the host defence response to S. pluranimalium, and suggests that MLKL is a potential drug target for preventing and controlling pathogen infection.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative condition, is defined by neurofibrillary tangles, amyloid plaques, and gradual cognitive decline. Regardless of the advances in understanding AD's pathogenesis and progression, its causes are still contested, and there are currently no efficient therapies for the illness. The post-mortem analyses revealed widespread neuronal loss in multiple brain regions in AD, evidenced by a decrease in neuronal density and correlated with the disease's progression and cognitive deterioration. AD's neurodegeneration is complicated, and different types of neuronal cell death, alone or in combination, play crucial roles in this process. Recently, the involvement of non-apoptotic programmed cell death in the neurodegenerative mechanisms of AD has received a lot of attention. Aberrant activation of necroptosis and ferroptosis, two newly discovered forms of regulated non-apoptotic cell death, is thought to contribute to neuronal cell death in AD. In this review, we first address the main features of necroptosis and ferroptosis, cellular signaling cascades, and the mechanisms involved in AD pathology. Then, we discuss the latest therapies targeting necroptosis and ferroptosis in AD animal/cell models and human research to provide vital information for AD treatment.

Abstract
PANoptosis, a unique new form of programmed cell death (PCD), is characterized by pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, but it cannot be explained by pyroptosis, apoptosis or necroptosis alone. Assembly of the PANoptosome complex is a key feature of PANoptosis. To date, four kinds of PANoptosomes with distinct sensors and regulators have been defined, namely Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) PANoptosome, absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) PANoptosome, receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) PANoptosome, and nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat-containing receptor 12 (NLRP12). Each PANoptosome contains three components: sensors for pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), adaptors as connected bridges, and catalytic effectors or executioners. Mechanistically, different PAMPs or DAMPs are recognized by the sensors in a context-dependent manner, which initiates PANoptosome assembly through adaptors, and ultimately engages synchronous activation of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis via different catalytic effectors. Resultantly, PANoptosis is emerged as a prospective and promising therapeutic target for various diseases. This review covers the accumulating evidence about the roles and mechanisms of PANoptosis in innate immunity and discusses the attractive prospect of manipulating PANoptosis as a new treatment for diseases.

Abstract
Fibrosis is a common process of tissue repair response to multiple injuries in all chronic progressive diseases, which features with excessive deposition of extracellular matrix. Fibrosis can occur in all organs and tends to be nonreversible with the progress of the disease. Different cells types in different organs are involved in the occurrence and development of fibrosis, that is, hepatic stellate cells, pancreatic stellate cells, fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. Various types of programmed cell death, including apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis and necroptosis, are closely related to organ fibrosis. Among these programmed cell death types, necroptosis, an emerging regulated cell death type, is regarded as a huge potential target to ameliorate organ fibrosis. In this review, we summarize the role of necroptosis signalling in organ fibrosis and collate the small molecule compounds targeting necroptosis. In addition, we discuss the potential challenges, opportunities and open questions in using necroptosis signalling as a potential target for antifibrotic therapies.

Abstract
Background & Aims Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is a central player in triggering necroptotic cell death. However, whether macrophage RIPK3 may regulate NOD1-dependent inflammation and calcineurin/transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 7 (TRPM7)-induced hepatocyte death in oxidative stress-induced liver inflammatory injury remains elusive. Methods A mouse model of hepatic ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, the primary hepatocytes, and bone marrow-derived macrophages were used in the myeloid-specific RIPK3 knockout (RIPK3M-KO) and RIPK3-proficient (RIPK3FL/FL) mice. Results RIPK3M-KO diminished IR stress-induced liver damage with reduced serum alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase levels, macrophage/neutrophil infiltration, and pro-inflammatory mediators compared with the RIPK3FL/FL controls. IR stress activated RIPK3, inositol-requiring transmembrane kinase/endoribonuclease 1α (IRE1α), x-box binding protein 1 (XBP1), nucleotide-binding oligomerisation domain-containing protein 1 (NOD1), NF-κB, forkhead box O1 (Foxo1), calcineurin A, and TRPM7 in ischaemic livers. Conversely, RIPK3M-KO depressed IRE1α, XBP1, NOD1, calcineurin A, and TRPM7 activation with reduced serum tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) levels. Moreover, Foxo1M-KO alleviated IR-induced liver injury with reduced NOD1 and TRPM7 expression. Interestingly, chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with massively parallel sequencing revealed that macrophage Foxo1 colocalised with XBP1 and activated its target gene Zc3h15 (zinc finger CCCH domain-containing protein 15). Activating macrophage XBP1 enhanced Zc3h15, NOD1, and NF-κB activity. However, disruption of macrophage Zc3h15 inhibited NOD1 and hepatocyte calcineurin/TRPM7 activation, with reduced reactive oxygen species production and lactate dehydrogenase release after macrophage/hepatocyte coculture. Furthermore, adoptive transfer of Zc3h15-expressing macrophages in RIPK3M-KO mice augmented IR-triggered liver inflammation and cell death. Conclusions Macrophage RIPK3 activates the IRE1α-XBP1 pathway and Foxo1 signalling in IR-stress livers. The XBP1-Foxo1 interaction is essential for modulating target gene Zc3h15 function, which is crucial for the control of NOD1 and calcineurin-mediated TRPM7 activation. XBP1 functions as a transcriptional coactivator of Foxo1 in regulating NOD1-driven liver inflammation and calcineurin/TRPM7-induced cell death. Our findings underscore a novel role of macrophage RIPK3 in stress-induced liver inflammation and cell death, implying the potential therapeutic targets in liver inflammatory diseases. Impact and implications Macrophage RIPK3 promotes NOD1-dependent inflammation and calcineurin/TRPM7-induced cell death cascade by triggering the XBP1-Foxo1 axis and its target gene Zc3h15, which is crucial for activating NOD1 and calcineurin/TRPM7 function, implying the potential therapeutic targets in stress-induced liver inflammatory injury.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1942. [PMID: 38001795 PMCID: PMC10669546 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12111942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Zinc is a structural component of proteins, functions as a catalytic co-factor in DNA synthesis and transcription of hundreds of enzymes, and has a regulatory role in protein-DNA interactions of zinc-finger proteins. For many years, zinc has been acknowledged for its anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory functions. Furthermore, zinc is a potent inhibitor of caspases-3, -7, and -8, modulating the caspase-controlled apoptosis and necroptosis. In recent years, the immunomodulatory role of zinc in sepsis and COVID-19 has been investigated. Both sepsis and COVID-19 are related to various regulated cell death (RCD) pathways, including apoptosis and necroptosis. Lack of zinc may have a negative effect on many immune functions, such as oxidative burst, cytokine production, chemotaxis, degranulation, phagocytosis, and RCD. While plasma zinc concentrations decline swiftly during both sepsis and COVID-19, this reduction is primarily attributed to a redistribution process associated with the inflammatory response. In this response, hepatic metallothionein production increases in reaction to cytokine release, which is linked to inflammation, and this protein effectively captures and stores zinc in the liver. Multiple regulatory mechanisms come into play, influencing the uptake of zinc, the binding of zinc to blood albumin and red blood cells, as well as the buffering and modulation of cytosolic zinc levels. Decreased zinc levels are associated with increasing severity of organ dysfunction, prolonged hospital stay and increased mortality in septic and COVID-19 patients. Results of recent studies focusing on these topics are summarized and discussed in this narrative review. Existing evidence currently does not support pharmacological zinc supplementation in patients with sepsis or COVID-19. Complementation and repletion should follow current guidelines for micronutrients in critically ill patients. Further research investigating the pharmacological mechanism of zinc in programmed cell death caused by invasive infections and its therapeutic potential in sepsis and COVID-19 could be worthwhile.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress is the primary cause of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in kidney transplantation, leading to delayed graft function (DGF) and implications on patient health. Necroptosis is believed to play a role in renal IRI. This research presents a comprehensive analysis of necroptosis-related genes and their functional implications in the context of IRI in renal transplantation. Methods The necroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (NR-DEGs) were identified using gene expression data from pre- and post-reperfusion renal biopsies, and consensus clustering analysis was performed to distinguish necroptosis-related clusters. A predictive model for DGF was developed based on the NR-DEGs and patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups. We investigated the differences in functional enrichment and immune infiltration between different clusters and risk groups and further validated them in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. Finally, we verified the expression changes of NR-DEGs in an IRI mouse model. Results Five NR-DEGs were identified and were involved in various biological processes. The renal samples were further stratified into two necroptosis-related clusters (C1 and C2) showing different occurrences of DGF. The predictive model had a reliable performance in identifying patients at higher risk of DGF with the area under the curve as 0.798. Additionally, immune infiltration analysis indicated more abundant proinflammatory cells in the high-risk group, which was also found in C2 cluster with more DGF patients. Validation of NR-DEG in scRNA-seq data further supported their involvement in immune cells. Lastly, the mouse model validated the up-regulation of NR-DEGs after IR and indicated the correlations with kidney function markers. Conclusions Our research provides valuable insights into the identification and functional characterization of NR-DEGs in the context of renal transplantation and sheds light on their involvement in immune responses and the progression of IRI and DGF.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a solid tumor characterized by poor prognosis and resistance to treatment. Resistance to apoptosis, a cell death process, and anti-apoptotic mechanisms, are some of the hallmarks of cancer. Exploring non-apoptotic cell death mechanisms provides an opportunity to overcome apoptosis resistance in PDAC. Several recent studies evaluated ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis as the non-apoptotic cell death processes in PDAC that play a crucial role in the prognosis and treatment of this disease. Ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis play a crucial role in PDAC development via several signaling pathways, gene expression, and immunity regulation. This review summarizes the current understanding of how ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis interact with signaling pathways, the genome, the immune system, the metabolism, and other factors in the prognosis and treatment of PDAC.

Abstract
p53 is a redox-sensitive transcription factor that can regulate multiple cell death programs through different signaling pathways. In this review, we assess the role of p53 in the regulation of necroptosis, a programmed form of lytic cell death highly involved in the pathophysiology of multiple diseases. In particular, we focus on the role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) as essential contributors to modulate necroptosis execution through p53. The enhanced generation of mtROS during necroptosis is critical for the correct interaction between receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) and 3 (RIPK3), two key components of the functional necrosome. p53 controls the occurrence of necroptosis by modulating the levels of mitochondrial H2O2 via peroxiredoxin 3 and sulfiredoxin. Furthermore, in response to increased levels of H2O2, p53 upregulates the long non-coding RNA necrosis-related factor, favoring the translation of RIPK1 and RIPK3. In parallel, a fraction of cytosolic p53 migrates into mitochondria, a process notably involved in necroptosis execution via its interaction with the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. In conclusion, p53 is located at the intersection between mtROS and the necroptosis machinery, making it a key protein to orchestrate redox signaling during necroptosis.

Abstract
Long-term or high-dose glucocorticoid use can lead to serious orthopedic complications, including femoral head necrosis. Both basic and clinical studies have shown that high doses dexamethasone (Dex) can directly induce osteoblasts death. This study investigated the mechanism underlying Dex induced osteoblast death. In this study, we showed that Dex induces osteoblast necroptosis, rather than apoptosis, through the inhibition of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity. We also demonstrated that inactivation of AMPK-mediated necroptosis is through receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIP3), but not RIP1. Furthermore, we found that Dex-induced necroptosis is dependent on mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) following with directly activation of RIP1 and inactivation of AMPK. These findings provide new insights into the mechanism of Dex-induced osteoblast death and may have implications for the development of new therapies for osteoporosis and other bone-related diseases.

Abstract
Mitochondria are well known as organelles responsible for the maintenance of cellular bioenergetics through the production of ATP. Although oxidative phosphorylation may be their most important function, mitochondria are also integral for the synthesis of metabolic precursors, calcium regulation, the production of reactive oxygen species, immune signaling, and apoptosis. Considering the breadth of their responsibilities, mitochondria are fundamental for cellular metabolism and homeostasis. Appreciating this significance, translational medicine has begun to investigate how mitochondrial dysfunction can represent a harbinger of disease. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of mitochondrial metabolism, cellular bioenergetics, mitochondrial dynamics, autophagy, mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns, mitochondria-mediated cell death pathways, and how mitochondrial dysfunction at any of these levels is associated with disease pathogenesis. Mitochondria-dependent pathways may thereby represent an attractive therapeutic target for ameliorating human disease.

Abstract
Parkinson disease (PD) is an age-dependent neurodegenerative disease with very high prevalence by age 80 years. Necroptosis is a newly identified form of programmed cell death implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, but has not yet been conclusively associated with PD. This study examined the contributions of necroptosis to PD using bioinformatics analysis. Datasets GSE26927, GSE49036, and GSE54536 from the gene expression omnibus database were analyzed for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). These DEGs were then subjected to gene ontology and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis to identify associated functions and signaling mechanisms. Necroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (NRDEGs) were then identified by the overlap of DEGs and the necroptosis gene set hsa04217. The STRING database and Cytoscape software were then used to build and visualize a protein-protein interaction network and identify hubs and key functional modules among NRDEGs. In addition, immune cell type abundance was analyzed based on DEGs using ImmuCellAI. The identified DEGs, KEGG pathway enrichment terms, and protein-protein interaction network structures of NRDEGs were validated using an independent dataset (GSE54536). The necroptosis pathway was significantly enriched and activated in PD samples. Thirteen NRDEGs were identified in the GSE26927 and GSE49036 datasets, including receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 1, CASP8 and FADD like apoptosis regulator, TNFRSF1A associated via death domain, and interleukin 1 beta, of which 6 were validated in the GSE54536 dataset. According to gene ontology and KEGG analyses, these NRDEGs are involved in necroptosis-related processes, apoptosis, B cell receptor signaling pathways, and NOD-like receptor signaling pathways. Analysis of DEGs also revealed significant increases in CD8 + T cell and Tex cell infiltration and significant decreases in B cell and T gamma delta cell infiltration within the PD brain. Necroptosis pathways are active in PD and associated with immune cell infiltration. The factors controlling necroptotic signaling and immune infiltration identified in this study may be valuable diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for PD.

Abstract
Programmed cell death (PCD) has been a research focus for decades and different mechanisms of cell death, such as necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis have been discovered. Necroptosis, a form of inflammatory PCD, has gained increasing attention in recent years due to its critical role in disease progression and development. Unlike apoptosis, which is mediated by caspases and characterized by cell shrinkage and membrane blebbing, necroptosis is mediated by mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) and characterized by cell enlargement and plasma membrane rupture. Necroptosis can be triggered by bacterial infection, which on the one hand represents a host defense mechanism against the infection, but on the other hand can facilitate bacterial escape and worsen inflammation. Despite its importance in various diseases, a comprehensive review on the involvement and roles of necroptosis in apical periodontitis is still lacking. In this review, we tried to provide an overview of recent progresses in necroptosis research, summarized the pathways involved in apical periodontitis (AP) activation, and discussed how bacterial pathogens induce and regulated necroptosis and how necroptosis would inhibit bacteria. Furthermore, the interplay between various types of cell death in AP and the potential treatment strategy for AP by targeting necroptosis were also discussed.

Abstract
Cancer cells generally exhibit increased iron uptake, which contributes to their abnormal growth and metastatic ability. Iron chelators have thus recently attracted attention as potential anticancer agents. Here, we show that deferriferrichrysin (Dfcy), a natural product from Aspergillus oryzae acts as an iron chelator to induce paraptosis (a programmed cell death pathway characterized by ER dilation) in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells and H1299 human lung cancer cells. We first examined the anticancer efficacy of Dfcy in cancer cells and found that Dfcy induced ER dilation and reduced the number of viable cells. Extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK) was activated by Dfcy treatment, and the MEK inhibitor U0126, a small molecule commonly used to inhibit ERK activity, prevented the increase in ER dilation in Dfcy-treated cells. Concomitantly, the decrease in the number of viable cells upon treatment with Dfcy was attenuated by U0126. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the iron chelator Dfcy exhibits anticancer effects via induction of ERK-dependent paraptosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancers globally. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is still present as a highly effective drug in treating acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Chemotherapy resistance is one of the major problems in cancer therapy. Necroptosis, can overcomes resistance to apoptosis, and can promote cancer treatment. This study examines the necroptosis pathway in A549 cancer cells exposed to ATO. METHODS We used the MTT test to determine the ATO effects on the viability of A549 cells at three different time intervals. Also, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were performed in three-time intervals. The effect of ATO on apoptosis was evaluated by Annexin V / PI staining and, the RIPK1 and MLKL gene expression were measured by Real-Time PCR. RESULTS The ATO has dose and time-dependent cytotoxic effects, so at 24, 48, and 72 h, the IC50 doses were 33.81 '11.44 '2.535 µM respectively. A 50 μM ATO is the most appropriate to increase the MMP loss significantly at all three times. At 24 and 48 h after exposure of cells to ATO, the ROS levels increased. The RIPK1 gene expression increased significantly compared to the control group at concentrations of 50 and 100 μM; however, MLKL gene expression decreased. CONCLUSIONS The A549 cells, after 48 h exposure to ATO at 50 and 100 μM, induces apoptosis and necroptosis. Due to the reduced expression of MLKL, it can be concluded that ATO is probably effective in the metastatic stage of cancer cells.

J Invest Dermatol 2023; 143:1746-1756.e9.

Abstract
Epidermal keratinocytes form the first-line cellular barrier of the skin for protection against external injuries and maintenance of local tissue homeostasis. Expression of ZBP1 was shown to cause necroptotic keratinocyte cell death and skin inflammation in mice. We sought to characterize the relevance of ZBP1 and necroptosis in human keratinocytes and type 1-driven cutaneous acute graft-versus-host disease. in this study, we identify ZBP1 expression, necroptosis, and interface dermatitis as being the hallmarks of acute graft-versus-host disease. ZBP1 expression was dependent on leukocyte-derived IFNγ, and interference with IFNγ signaling by Jak inhibition prevented cell death. In predominantly IL-17-driven psoriasis, both ZBP1 expression and necroptosis could not be detected. Of note, in contrast to the signaling in mice, ZBP1 signaling in human keratinocytes was not affected by RIPK1's presence. These findings show that ZBP1 drives inflammation in IFNγ-dominant type 1 immune responses in human skin and may further point to a general role of ZBP1-mediated necroptosis.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) causes significant global disease burden and is a leading cause of mortality. NAFLD induces a myriad of aberrant changes in hepatocytes at both the cellular and molecular level. Although the disease spectrum of NAFLD is widely recognised, the precise triggers for disease progression are still to be fully elucidated. Furthermore, the propagation to cirrhosis is poorly understood. Whilst some progress in terms of treatment options have been explored, an incomplete understanding of the hepatic cellular and molecular alterations limits their clinical utility. We have therefore reviewed some of the key pathways responsible for the pathogenesis of NAFLD such as innate and adaptative immunity, lipotoxicity and fibrogenesis, and highlighted current trials and treatment options for NAFLD patients.

Abstract
Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are required for peripheral T cell homeostasis in lymphoid organs, but the molecular mechanism underlying this requirement has remained unclear. We here show that T cell-specific CD47-deficient (Cd47 ΔT) mice have a markedly reduced number of T cells in peripheral tissues. Direct interaction of CD47-deficient T cells with cDCs resulted in activation of the latter cells, which in turn induced necroptosis of the former cells. The deficiency and cell death of T cells in Cd47 ΔT mice required expression of its receptor signal regulatory protein α on cDCs. The development of CD4+ T helper cell-dependent contact hypersensitivity and inhibition of tumor growth by cytotoxic CD8+ T cells were both markedly impaired in Cd47 ΔT mice. CD47 on T cells thus likely prevents their necroptotic cell death initiated by cDCs and thereby promotes T cell survival and function.

The Active Fraction of Polyrhachis vicina Roger (AFPR) activates ERK to cause necroptosis in colorectal cancer. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 312:116454. [PMID: 37059246 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.116454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Polyrhachis vicina Roger (P. vicina), a traditional Chinese medicinal animal, has been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis, cancer, and other conditions. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, our previous pharmacological investigations have demonstrated that it is effective against cancer, depression, and hyperuricemia. Nevertheless, the key active components and targets of P. vicina in cancers are still unexplored. AIM OF THE STUDY The study aimed to evaluate the pharmacological treatment mechanism of the active fraction of P. vicina (AFPR) in treating colorectal cancer (CRC) and to further reveal its active ingredients and key targets. METHODS To examine the inhibitory impact of AFPR on CRC growth, tumorigenesis assays, cck-8 assays, colony formation assays, and MMP detection were utilized. The primary components of AFPR were identified by GC-MS analysis. The network pharmacology, molecular docking, qRT-PCR, western blotting, CCK-8 assays, colony formation assay, Hoechst staining, Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining, and MMP detection were performed to pick out the active ingredients and potential key targets of AFPR. The function of Elaidic acid on necroptosis was investigated through siRNA interference and the utilization of inhibitors. Elaidic acid's effectiveness to suppress CRC growth in vivo was assessed using a tumorigenesis experiment. RESULTS Studies confirmed that AFPR prevented CRC from growing and evoked cell death. Elaidic acid was the main bioactive ingredient in AFPR that targeted ERK. Elaidic acid greatly affected the ability of SW116 cells to form colonies, produce MMP, and undergo necroptosis. Additionally, Elaidic acid promoted necroptosis predominantly by activating ERK/RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL. CONCLUSION According to our findings, Elaidic acid is the main active component of AFPR, which induced necroptosis in CRC through the activation of ERK. It represents a promising alternative therapeutic option for CRC. This work provided experimental support for the therapeutic application of P. vicina Roger in the treatment of CRC.
