Molecular mechanisms of necroptosis and relevance for neurodegenerative diseases

© 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Necroptosis is a regulated cell death pathway morphologically similar to necrosis that depends on the kinase activity of receptor interacting protein 3 (RIP3) and the subsequent activation of the pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), being also generally dependent on RIP1 kinase activity. Necroptosis can be recruited during pathological conditions, usually following the activation of death receptors under specific cellular contexts. In this regard, necroptosis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple disorders, including acute and chronic neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, and multiple sclerosis. Here, we summarize the molecular mechanisms regulating the induction of necroptosis and downstream effectors of this form of cell death, besides exploring non-necroptotic roles for necroptosis-related proteins that may impact on alternative cell death pathways and inflammatory mechanisms in disease. Finally, we outline the recent evidence implicating necroptosis in neurodegenerative conditions and the emerging therapeutic perspectives targeting necroptosis in these diseases.
