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
Studying the molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) is critical to improve PD treatment. We used OpenArray technology to assess gene expression in the substantia nigra (SN) cells of mice in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model of PD and in controls. Among the 11 housekeeping genes tested, Rps27a was taken as the reference gene due to its most stable expression in normal and experimental conditions. From 101 genes encoding functionally significant proteins of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons, 57 highly expressed genes were selected to assess their expressions in the PD model and in the controls. The expressions of Th, Ddc, Maoa, Comt, Slc6a3, Slc18a2, Drd2, and Nr4a2 decreased in the experiment compared to the control, indicating decreases in the synthesis, degradation, and transport of dopamine and the impaired autoregulation of dopaminergic neurons. The expressions of Tubb3, Map2, Syn1, Syt1, Rab7, Sod1, Cib1, Gpx1, Psmd4, Ubb, Usp47, and Ctsb genes were also decreased in the MPTP-treated mice, indicating impairments of axonal and vesicular transport and abnormal functioning of the antioxidant and ubiquitin-proteasome systems in the SN. The detected decreases in the expressions of Snca, Nsf, Dnm1l, and Keap1 may serve to reduce pathological protein aggregation, increase dopamine release in the striatum, prevent mitophagy, and restore the redox status of SN cells.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a regulated form of cell death, is involved in the genesis and development of various life-threatening diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, cardiac myopathy, and diabetes. Necroptosis initiates with the formation and activation of a necrosome complex, which consists of RIPK1, RIPK2, RIPK3, and MLKL. Emerging studies has demonstrated the regulation of the necroptosis cell death pathway through the implication of numerous post-translational modifications, namely ubiquitination, acetylation, methylation, SUMOylation, hydroxylation, and others. In addition, the negative regulation of the necroptosis pathway has been shown to interfere with brain homeostasis through the regulation of axonal degeneration, mitochondrial dynamics, lysosomal defects, and inflammatory response. Necroptosis is controlled by the activity and expression of signaling molecules, namely VEGF/VEGFR, PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β, c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK), ERK/MAPK, and Wnt/β-catenin. Herein, we briefly discussed the implication and potential of necrosome activation in the pathogenesis and progression of neurological manifestations, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, and others. Further, we present a detailed picture of natural compounds, micro-RNAs, and chemical compounds as therapeutic agents for treating neurological manifestations.

Abstract
Necroptosis is one of the regulated cell death, which involves receptor interacting protein kinase (RIPK) 1/RIPK3/mixed lineage kinase domain like protein (MLKL) signaling pathway. Among them, MLKL is the final execution of necroptosis. The formation of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL necrosome induces the phosphorylated MLKL, and the activated MLKL penetrates into the membrane bilayer to form membrane pores, which damages the integrity of the membrane and leads to cell death. In addition to participating in necroptosis, MLKL is also closely related to other cell death, such as NETosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy. Therefore, MLKL is involved in the pathological processes of various diseases related to abnormal cell death pathways (such as cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer), and may be a therapeutic target of multiple diseases. Understanding the role of MLKL in different cell death can lay a foundation for seeking various MLKL-related disease targets, and also guide the development and application of MLKL inhibitors.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a type of precisely regulated necrotic cell death activated in caspase-deficient conditions. Multiple factors initiate the necroptotic signaling pathway, including toll-like receptor 3/4, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), dsRNA viruses, and T cell receptors. Presently, TNF-induced necroptosis via the phosphorylation of three key proteins, receptor-interacting protein kinase 1, receptor-interacting protein kinase 3, and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein, is the best-characterized process. Necroptosis induced by Z-DNA-binding protein 1 (ZBP-1) and toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR)-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon (TRIF) plays a significant role in infectious diseases, such as influenza A virus, Zika virus, and herpesvirus infection. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated the close association of necroptosis with multiple diseases, and disrupting necroptosis has been confirmed to be effective for treating (or managing) these diseases. The central nervous system (CNS) exhibits unique physiological structures and immune characteristics. Necroptosis may occur without the sequential activation of signal proteins, and the necroptosis of supporting cells has more important implications in disease development. Additionally, necroptotic signals can be activated in the absence of necroptosis. Here, we summarize the role of necroptosis and its signal proteins in CNS diseases and characterize typical necroptosis regulators to provide a basis for the further development of therapeutic strategies for treating such diseases. In the present review, relevant information has been consolidated from recent studies (from 2010 until the present), excluding the patents in this field.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, mechanisms of programmed cell death have attracted the scientific community because they are involved in diverse human diseases. Initially, apoptosis was considered as a crucial mechanistic pathway for programmed cell death; recently, an alternative regulated mode of cell death was identified, mimicking the features of both apoptosis and necrosis. Several lines of evidence have revealed that dysregulation of necroptosis leads to pathological diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular, lung, renal, hepatic, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory diseases. Regulated forms of necrosis are executed by death receptor ligands through the activation of receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK)-1/3 and mixed-lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), resulting in the formation of a necrosome complex. Many papers based on genetic and pharmacological studies have shown that RIPKs and MLKL are the key regulatory effectors during the progression of multiple pathological diseases. This review focused on illuminating the mechanisms underlying necroptosis, the functions of necroptosis-associated proteins, and their influences on disease progression. We also discuss numerous natural and chemical compounds and novel targeted therapies that elicit beneficial roles of necroptotic cell death in malignant cells to bypass apoptosis and drug resistance and to provide suggestions for further research in this field.

Abstract
The human receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) is a critical necroptosis regulator implicated in cancer, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis. Currently, there are no specific RIPK1 antagonists in clinical practice. In this study, we took a target-based computational approach to identify blood-brain-barrier-permeable potent RIPK1 ligands with novel chemotypes. Using molecular docking, we virtually screened the Marine Natural Products (MNP) library of 14,492 small molecules. Initial 18 hits were subjected to detailed ADMET profiling for bioavailability, brain penetration, druglikeness, and toxicities and eventually yielded 548773-66-6 as the best ligand. RIPK1 548773-66-6 binding was validated through duplicated molecular dynamics (MD) simulations where the co-crystallized ligand L8D served as a reference. Trajectory analysis indicated negligible Root-Mean-Square-Deviations (RMSDs) of the best ligand 548773-66-6 relative to the protein backbone: 0.156 ± 0.043 nm and 0.296 ± 0.044 nm (mean ± standard deviations) in two individual simulations. Visual inspection confirmed that 548773-66-6 occupied the RIPK1 ligand-binding pocket associated with the kinase activation loop. Further computations demonstrated consistent hydrogen bond interactions of the ligand with the residue ASP156. Binding free energy estimation also supported stable interactions of 548773-66-6 and RIPK1. Together, our in silico analysis predicted 548773-66-6 as a novel ligand for RIPK1. Therefore, 548773-66-6 could be a viable lead for inhibiting necroptosis in central nervous system inflammatory disorders.

The Regulatory Mechanism and Effect of RIPK3 on PE-induced Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2022; 80:236-250.

Abstract
ABSTRACT As a critical regulatory molecule, receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) can mediate the signaling pathway of programmed necrosis. Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) has been proved as a new substrate for RIPK3-induced necroptosis. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanism of RIPK3 on phenylephrine (PE)-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was induced by exposure to PE (100 μM) for 48 h. Primary cardiomyocytes were pretreated with RIPK3 inhibitor GSK'872 (10 μM), and RIPK3 siRNA was used to deplete the intracellular expression of RIPK3. The indexes related to myocardial hypertrophy, cell injury, necroptosis, CaMKII activation, gene expression, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial membrane potential were measured. We found that after cardiomyocytes were stimulated by PE, the expressions of hypertrophy markers, atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP), were increased, the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was increased, the level of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)was decreased, the oxidation and phosphorylation levels of CaMKII were increased, and CaMKIIδ alternative splicing was disturbed. However, both GSK'872 and depletion of RIPK3 could reduce myocardial dysfunction, inhibit CaMKII activation and necroptosis, and finally alleviate myocardial hypertrophy. In addition, the pretreatment of RIPK3 could also lessen the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by PE and stabilize the membrane potential of mitochondria. These results indicated that targeted inhibition of RIPK3 could suppress the activation of CaMKII and reduce necroptosis and oxidative stress, leading to alleviated myocardial hypertrophy. Collectively, our findings provided valuable insights into the clinical treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
