Abstract
As the malignant tumor with the highest incidence in male, prostate cancer poses a significant threat to the reproductive health of elderly men. Our previous studies have shown that promoting necroptosis of cancer cells can effectively inhibit cancer cell proliferation. This study includes lentivirus-mediated knockdown of β2AR which resulted in stable transfectants that exhibited an increased ability to form clones compared to that of the negative control group. In the protein and mRNA levels, necroptosis associated RIP and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) were significantly higher in the treatment group than they were in the control group. Furthermore, cells treated with propranolol exhibited necrotic morphology as observed by transmission electron microscopy. The combination of β2AR suppression and necroptosis inhibitors resulted in a more potent suppression of cell proliferation compared to that observed in the control and negative control groups. Additionally, it elevated in the necrosis rate as determined by flow cytometry. Immunofluorescence staining revealed enhanced RIP and MLKL expression in the sh-β2AR group compared to levels in the negative control group. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments detected an interaction between β2AR and RIP. MLKL and RIPK3 levels were significantly higher in xenograft tumor sections from the sh-β2AR group compared to levels in the sh-NC group. To conclude, our research indicates the proliferation of PC-3 and DU-145 cprostate cancer cells can be suppressed by inhibiting β2AR, and this occurs through the RIP/MLKL-mediated pathway of necroptosis.

Abstract
Background The implication of necroptosis in cardiovascular disease was already recognized. However, the molecular mechanism of necroptosis has not been extensively studied in coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between CHD and control samples were acquired in the GSE20681 dataset downloaded from the GEO database. Key necroptosis-related DEGs were captured and ascertained by bioinformatics analysis techniques, including weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and two machine learning algorithms, while single-gene gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed their molecular mechanisms. The diagnostic biomarkers were selected via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Moreover, an analysis of immune elements infiltration degree was carried out. Authentication of pivotal gene expression at the mRNA level was investigated in vitro utilizing quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results A total of 94 DE-NRGs were recognized here, among which, FAM166B, NEFL, POLDIP3, PRSS37, and ZNF594 were authenticated as necroptosis-related biomarkers, and the linear regression model based on them presented an acceptable ability to different sample types. Following regulatory analysis, the ascertained biomarkers were markedly abundant in functions pertinent to blood circulation, calcium ion homeostasis, and the MAPK/cAMP/Ras signaling pathway. Single-sample GSEA exhibited that APC co-stimulation and CCR were more abundant, and aDCs and B cells were relatively scarce in CHD patients. Consistent findings from bioinformatics and qRT-PCR analyses confirmed the upregulation of NEFL and the downregulation of FAM166B, POLDIP3, and PRSS37 in CHD. Conclusion Our current investigation identified 5 necroptosis-related genes that could be diagnostic markers for CHD and brought a novel comprehension of the latent molecular mechanisms of necroptosis in CHD.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy, such as immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), has emerged as a groundbreaking approach for effective cancer treatment. Despite its considerable potential, clinical studies have indicated that the current response rate to cancer immunotherapy is suboptimal, primarily attributed to low immunogenicity in certain types of malignant tumors. Immunogenic cell death (ICD) represents a form of regulated cell death (RCD) capable of enhancing tumor immunogenicity and activating tumor-specific innate and adaptive immune responses in immunocompetent hosts. Therefore, gaining a deeper understanding of ICD and its evolution is crucial for developing more effective cancer therapeutic strategies. This review focuses exclusively on both historical and recent discoveries related to ICD modes and their mechanistic insights, particularly within the context of cancer immunotherapy. Our recent findings are also highlighted, revealing a mode of ICD induction facilitated by atypical interferon (IFN)-stimulated genes (ISGs), including polo-like kinase 2 (PLK2), during hyperactive type I IFN signaling. The review concludes by discussing the therapeutic potential of ICD, with special attention to its relevance in both preclinical and clinical settings within the field of cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the role of receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) in the diagnosis, estimation of disease severity, and prognosis of premature infants with necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). METHODS RIPK3, lactic acid (LA), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured in the peripheral blood of 108 premature infants between 2019 and 2023, including 24 with stage II NEC, 18 with stage III NEC and 66 controls. Diagnostic values of the indicators for NEC were evaluated via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Plasma RIPK3 and LA levels upon NEC suspicion in neonates with stage III NEC were 32.37 ± 16.20 ng/mL. The ROC curve for the combination of RIPK3, LA, CRP for NEC diagnosis were 0.925. The time to full enteral feeding (FEFt) after recovery from NEC was different between two expression groups of plasma RIPK3 (RIPK3 < 20.06 ng/mL and RIPK3 ≥ 20.06 ng/mL). CONCLUSION Plasma RIPK3 can be used as a promising marker for the diagnosis and estimation of disease severity of premature infants with NEC and for the guidance on proper feeding strategies after recovery from NEC.

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
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI), characterized by necroptosis and activation of MAPK pathway, causes sudden declines in renal function. To date, efficacious treatments are lacking. JianPiYiShen Formula (JPYSF) has a protective effect on the kidneys. The aim of this study is to explore the mechanism of JPYSF in cisplatin-induced AKI. METHODS Male C57/BL6J mice were divided into control group, cisplatin group and cisplatin + JPYSF group. Before establishing the model, the cisplatin + JPYSF group was administered JPYSF (18.35 g/kg/day) by gavage for 5 consecutive days. A single intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin (20 mg/kg) was used to establish AKI model. Measurement of renal function and H&E staining were performed to assess renal damage. WB, PCR, TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry were used to detect related indicators of mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, necroptosis, inflammation and MAPK pathway. And one-way analysis of variance was used to compare group differences. RESULTS Compared with the cisplatin group, JPYSF can attenuate AKI, reflected by the decrease in Scr and BUN levels, the improvement of renal tubular injury, and the downregulation of NGAL and KIM1. Cisplatin can induce mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress, triggering necroptosis. In this study, JPYSF improved mitochondrial dysfunction to enhance oxidative stress, as manifested by upregulation of OPA1, PGC-1α, SOD and CAT, and downregulation of DRP1 and MFF. Then JPYSF showed a significant protective effect in necroptosis, as embodied by reduced number of TUNEL-positive cells, decreased the gene expression of RIPK3 and MLKL, as well as downregulation the proteins expression of P-RIPK1, P-RIPK3, and P-MLKL. Moreover, necroptosis can aggravate inflammation. JPYSF ameliorated inflammation by improving inflammatory and anti-inflammatory indexes, including downregulation of TNF-α, IL-6, MCP-1 and LY6G, and upregulation of IL-10. In addition, JPYSF also inhibited MAPK pathway to improve necroptosis by decreasing the expression of P-JNK and P-ERK. CONCLUSION Our data showed that JPYSF prevents cisplatin-induced AKI by improving necroptosis through MAPK pathway, which is related to the improvement of mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation.

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
A series of experimental trials over the past two centuries has put forth Photobiomodulation (PBM) as a treatment modality that utilizes colored lights for various conditions. While in its cradle, PBM was used for treating simple conditions such as burns and wounds, advancements in recent years have extended the use of PBM for treating complex neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). PBM has exhibited the potential to curb several symptoms and signs associated with NDDs. While several of the currently used therapeutics cause adverse side effects alongside being highly invasive, PBM on the contrary, seems to be broad-acting, less toxic, and non-invasive. Despite being projected as an ideal therapeutic for NDDs, PBM still isn't considered a mainstream treatment modality due to some of the challenges and knowledge gaps associated with it. Here, we review the advantages of PBM summarized above with an emphasis on the common mechanisms that underlie major NDDs and how PBM helps tackle them. We also discuss important questions such as whether PBM should be considered a mainstay treatment modality for these conditions and if PBM's properties can be harnessed to develop prophylactic therapies for high-risk individuals and also highlight important animal studies that underscore the importance of PBM and the challenges associated with it. Overall, this review is intended to bring the major advances made in the field to the spotlight alongside addressing the practicalities and caveats to develop PBM as a major therapeutic for NDDs.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating fatal neurodegenerative disease with no cure. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) has been proposed to mediate pathogenesis of ALS. Primidone has been identified as an old drug that can also inhibit RIPK1 kinase. We conducted a drug-repurposing biomarker study of primidone as a RIPK1 inhibitor using SOD1G93A mice and ALS patients. SOD1G93A mice treated with primidone showed significant delay of symptomatic onset and improved motor performance. One-hundred-sixty-two ALS participants dosed daily with primidone (62.5 mg) completed 24-week follow-up. A significant reduction was showed in serum levels of RIPK1 and IL-8, which were significantly higher in ALS patients than that of healthy controls (P < 0.0001). Serum RIPK1 levels were correlated positively with the severity of bulbar symptoms (P < 0.05). Our study suggests that serum levels of RIPK1 and IL-8 in peripheral can be used as clinical biomarkers for the activation of RIPK1 in central nervous system in human ALS patients. Repurposing primidone may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for ALS. The effect of primidone for the treatment of other inflammatory diseases may also be considered, since the activation of RIPK1 has been implicated in mediating a variety of inflammatory diseases including COVID-19-associated cytokine release syndrome (CRS).

Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)-mediated necroptosis is believed to have a significant role in contributing to inflammatory diseases. Inhibiting RIPK1 has shown promise in effectively alleviating the inflammation process. In our current study, we employed scaffold hopping to develop a series of novel benzoxazepinone derivatives. Among these derivatives, compound o1 displayed the most potent antinecroptosis activity (EC50=16.17±1.878nM) in cellular assays and exhibited the strongest binding affinity to the target site. Molecular docking analyses further elucidated the mechanism of action of o1, revealing its ability to fully occupy the protein pocket and form hydrogen bonds with the amino acid residue Asp156. Our findings highlight that o1 specifically inhibits necroptosis, rather than apoptosis, by impeding the RIPK1/Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/mixed-lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) pathway's phosphorylation, triggered by TNFα, Smac mimetic, and z-VAD (TSZ). Additionally, o1 demonstrated dose-dependent improvements in the survival rate of mice with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS), surpassing the protective effect observed with GSK'772.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increasing amount of research has speculated that necroptosis could be a therapeutic strategy for treating cancer. However, understanding the prognostic value of the necroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (NRLs) in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM, hereafter referred to as melanoma) remains poor and needs to be developed. Our research aims to construct a model based on NRLs for the prognosis of patients with melanoma. METHODS We obtained the RNA-seq and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and retrieved 86 necroptosis-related genes from the GeneCards database. The lncRNAs associated with necroptosis were identified via the Pearson correlation coefficient, and the prognostic model of melanoma was constructed using LASSO regression. Next, we employed multiple approaches to verify the accuracy of the model. Melanoma patients were categorized into two groups (high-risk and low-risk) according to the results of LASSO regression. The relationships between the risk score and survival status, clinicopathological correlation, functional enrichment, immune infiltration, somatic mutation, and drug sensitivity were further investigated. Finally, the functions of AL162457.2 on melanoma proliferation, invasion, and migration were validated by in vitro experiments. RESULTS The prognostic model consists of seven NRLs (EBLN3P, AC093010.2, LINC01871, IRF2-DT, AL162457.2, AC242842.1, HLA-DQB1-AS1) and shows high diagnostic efficiency. Overall survival in the high-risk group was significantly lower than in the low-risk group, and risk scores could be used to predict melanoma survival outcomes independently. Significant differences were evident between risk groups regarding the expression of immune checkpoint genes, immune infiltration, immunotherapeutic response and drug sensitivity analysis. A series of functional cell assays indicated that silencing AL162457.2 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, invasion, and migration in A375 cells. CONCLUSION Our prognostic model can independently predict the survival of melanoma patients while providing a basis for the subsequent investigation of necroptosis in melanoma and a new perspective on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of melanoma.

Abstract
Pyroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis, which are the most well-studied regulated cell death (RCD) pathways, contribute to the clearance of infected or potentially neoplastic cells, highlighting their importance in homeostasis, host defense against pathogens, cancer, and a wide range of other pathologies. Although these four RCD pathways employ distinct molecular and cellular processes, emerging genetic and biochemical studies have suggested remarkable flexibility and crosstalk among them. The crosstalk among pyroptosis, apoptosis and necroptosis pathways is more evident in cellular responses to infection, which has led to the conceptualization of PANoptosis. In this review, we provide a brief overview of the molecular mechanisms of pyroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis and their importance in maintaining homeostasis. We discuss the intricate crosstalk among these RCD pathways and the current evidence supporting PANoptosis, focusing on infectious diseases and cancer. Understanding the fundamental processes of various cell death pathways is crucial to inform the development of new therapeutics against many diseases, including infection, sterile inflammation, and cancer.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a regulated form of cell death that has gained increasing attention in recent years. It plays a significant role in various physiological and pathological processes, including renal health and disease. This review article provides an overview of necroptosis as a regulated cell death pathway and explores its implications in renal physiology and renal diseases. The molecular signaling pathways involved in necroptosis, including the key players such as receptor-interacting protein kinases (RIPKs) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), are discussed in detail. The crosstalk between necroptosis and other cell death pathways, particularly apoptosis, is explored to understand the interplay between these processes in renal cells. In normal physiological conditions, necroptosis has been found to play a crucial role in renal development and tissue homeostasis. However, dysregulated necroptosis can contribute to tissue damage, inflammation, and fibrosis in renal diseases. The review highlights the involvement of necroptosis in acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and renal transplant rejection, elucidating the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and consequences. The therapeutic targeting of necroptosis in renal diseases is an emerging area of interest. Current and emerging strategies to modulate necroptosis, including the inhibition of key mediators and regulators, are discussed here. Additionally, the potential therapeutic targets and inhibitors of necroptosis, along with preclinical and clinical studies exploring their efficacy, are reviewed.

Abstract
Neuronal necroptosis (programmed necrosis) in the CNS naturally occurs through a caspase-independent way and, especially in neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parknson's disease (PD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and viral infections. Understanding necroptosis pathways (death receptor-dependent and independent), and its connections with other cell death pathways could lead to new insights into treatment. Receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) mediates necroptosis via mixed-lineage kinase-like (MLKL) proteins. RIPK/MLKL necrosome contains FADD, procaspase-8-cellular FLICE-inhibitory proteins (cFLIPs), RIPK1/RIPK3, and MLKL. The necrotic stimuli cause phosphorylation of MLKL and translocate to the plasma membrane, causing an influx of Ca2+ and Na+ ions and, the immediate opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) with the release of inflammatory cell damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) like mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), high-mobility group box1 (HMGB1), and interleukin1 (IL-1). The MLKL translocates to the nucleus to induce transcription of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex elements. MLKL-induced NLRP3 activity causes caspase-1 cleavage and, IL-1 activation which promotes neuroinflammation. RIPK1-dependent transcription increases illness-associated microglial and lysosomal abnormalities to facilitate amyloid plaque (Aβ) aggregation in AD. Recent research has linked neuroinflammation and mitochondrial fission with necroptosis. MicroRNAs (miRs) such as miR512-3p, miR874, miR499, miR155, and miR128a regulate neuronal necroptosis by targeting key components of necroptotic pathways. Necroptosis inhibitors act by inhibiting the membrane translocation of MLKL and RIPK1 activity. This review insights into the RIPK/MLKL necrosome-NLRP3 inflammasome interactions during death receptor-dependent and independent neuronal necroptosis, and clinical intervention by miRs to protect the brain from NDDs.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a newly-identified form of gene-regulated cell necrosis that is increasingly considered to be a pathway associated with human pathophysiological conditions. Cells undergoing necroptosis exhibit necrotic phenotypes, including disruption of the plasma membrane integrity, organelle swelling, and cytolysis. Accumulating evidence suggests that trophoblast necroptosis plays a complex role in preeclampsia (PE). However, the exact pathogenesis remains unclear. Its unique mechanisms of action in various diseases are expected to provide prospects for the treatment of PE. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore its molecular mechanism in PE in order to identify potential therapeutic options. This review examines the current knowledge regarding the role and mechanisms of necroptosis in PE and provides a theoretical basis for new therapeutic targets for PE.

Abstract
Cell death is a basic physiological process that occurs in all living organisms. A few key players in these mechanisms, as well as various forms of cell death programming, have been identified. Apoptotic cell phagocytosis, also known as apoptotic cell clearance, is a well-established process regulated by a number of molecular components, including 'find-me', 'eat-me' and engulfment signals. Efferocytosis, or the rapid phagocytic clearance of cell death, is a critical mechanism for tissue homeostasis. Despite having similar mechanism to phagocytic clearance of infections, efferocytosis differs from phagocytosis in that it induces a tissue-healing response and is immunologically inert. However, as field of cell death has rapid expanded, much attention has recently been drawn to the efferocytosis of additional necrotic-like cell types, such as necroptosis and pyroptosis. Unlike apoptosis, this method of cell suicide allows the release of immunogenic cellular material and causes inflammation. Regardless of the cause of cell death, the clearance of dead cells is a necessary function to avoid uncontrolled synthesis of pro-inflammatory molecules and inflammatory disorder. We compare and contrast apoptosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis, as well as the various molecular mechanisms of efferocytosis in each type of cell death, and investigate how these may have functional effects on different intracellular organelles and signalling networks. Understanding how efferocytic cells react to necroptotic and pyroptotic cell uptake can help us understand how to modulate these cell death processes for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CP) is a broad-spectrum antineoplastic agent, used to treat many different types of malignancies due to its high efficacy and low cost. However, its use is largely limited by acute kidney injury (AKI), which, if left untreated, may progress to cause irreversible chronic renal dysfunction. Despite substantial research, the exact mechanisms of CP-induced AKI are still so far unclear and effective therapies are lacking and desperately needed. In recent years, necroptosis, a novel subtype of regulated necrosis, and autophagy, a form of homeostatic housekeeping mechanism have witnessed a burgeoning interest owing to their potential to regulate and alleviate CP-induced AKI. In this review, we elucidate in detail the molecular mechanisms and potential roles of both autophagy and necroptosis in CP-induced AKI. We also explore the potential of targeting these pathways to overcome CP-induced AKI according to recent advances.

Abstract
The research on new treatments for dry eye diseases (DED) has exponentially grown over the past decades. The increased prevalence of dry eye conditions, particularly in the younger population, has received much attention. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to identify novel therapeutical targets. Regulated cell death (RCD) is an essential process to control the biological homeostasis of tissues and organisms. The identification of different mechanisms of RCD stimulated the research on their involvement in different human pathologies. Whereas apoptosis has been widely studied in DED and included in the DED vicious cycle, the role of RCD still needs to be completely elucidated. In this review, we will explore the potential roles of different types of RCD in DED and ocular surface dysfunction. Starting from the evidence of oxidative stress and inflammation in dry eye pathology, we will analyse the potential therapeutic applications of the following principal RCD mechanisms: ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis.

Abstract
Purpose Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a cell death modality that plays a vital role in anticancer therapy. In this study, we investigated whether lenvatinib induces ICD in hepatocellular carcinoma and how it affects cancer cell behavior. Patients and Methods Hepatoma cells were treated with 0.5 μM lenvatinib for two weeks, and damage-associated molecular patterns were assessed using the expression of calreticulin, high mobility group box 1, and ATP secretion. Transcriptome sequencing was performed to investigate the effects of lenvatinib on hepatocellular carcinoma. Additionally, CU CPT 4A and TAK-242 were used to inhibit TLR3 and TLR4 expressions, respectively. Flow cytometry was used to assess PD-L1 expression. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression models were applied for prognosis assessment. Results After treatment with lenvatinib, there was a significant increase in ICD-associated damage-associated molecular patterns, such as calreticulin on the cell membrane, extracellular ATP, and high mobility group box 1, in hepatoma cells. Following treatment with lenvatinib, there was a significant increase in the downstream immunogenic cell death receptors, including TLR3 and TLR4. Furthermore, lenvatinib increased the expression of PD-L1, which was later inhibited by TLR4. Interestingly, inhibiting TLR3 in MHCC-97H and Huh7 cells strengthened their proliferative capacity. Moreover, TLR3 inhibition was identified as an independent risk factor for overall survival and recurrence-free survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusion Our study revealed that lenvatinib induced ICD in hepatocellular carcinoma and upregulated PD-L1 expression through TLR4 while promoting cell apoptosis through TLR3. Antibodies against PD-1/PD-L1 can enhance the efficacy of lenvatinib in the management of hepatocellular carcinoma.

[PMID: 36229523 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-022-01034-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Revised: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Unilateral adrenalectomy is the standard treatment for patients with aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA), but it lacks an option for patients with APA who refuse or are not suitable for surgery. In this study, we studied whether catheter-based adrenal ablation for APA is comparable to adrenalectomy. A total of 2185 hypertensive patients were screened, and 112 patients with APA were recruited and counselled on the treatment options. Fifty-two patients opted for catheter-based adrenal ablation, and 60 opted for adrenalectomy. Clinical and biochemical outcomes were assessed at 6 months after treatment. Factors associated with hypertension remission and the advantages and limitations of this approach were evaluated. According to the primary aldosteronism surgical outcome (PASO) criteria, complete and partial clinical success was achieved in 21 (40.4%) and 23 (44.2%) patients in the ablation group vs. 33 (55.0%) and 23 (38.3%) patients in the adrenalectomy group, respectively. Complete and partial biochemical success was achieved in 30 (57.7%) and 17 (32.7%) patients in the ablation group vs. 51 (85.0%) and 5 (8.3%) patients in the adrenalectomy group, respectively. The complete clinical success rate was not (P > 0.05), but the complete biochemical success rate was significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.01). Factors associated with adrenal ablation-mediated hypertension remission were hypertension duration and serum potassium level at baseline. Compared with surgery, adrenal ablation requires a shorter operating time and time to resume physical activity. Catheter-based adrenal ablation may be an alternative and feasible option for APA patients unwilling to receive surgical treatment.

Dual Topoisomerase I/II Inhibition-Induced Apoptosis and Necro-Apoptosis in Cancer Cells by a Novel Ciprofloxacin Derivative via RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL Activation. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27227993. [PMID: 36432094 PMCID: PMC9694631 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27227993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are synthetic broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents that have been recently repurposed to anticancer candidates. Designing new derivatives of FQs with different moieties to target DNA topoisomerases could improve their anticancer efficacy. The present study aimed to synthesize a novel ciprofloxacin derivative, examine its anticancer activity against HepG2 and A549 cancer cells, and investigate the possible molecular mechanism underlying this activity by examining its ability to inhibit the topo I/II activity and to induce the apoptotic and necro-apoptotic pathways. Molecular docking, cell viability, cell migration, colony formation, cell cycle, Annexin V, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, ELISA, and western blotting assays were utilized. Molecular docking results showed that this novel ciprofloxacin derivative exerted dual topo I and topo II binding and inhibition. It significantly inhibited the proliferation of A549 and HepG2 cancer cells and decreased their cell migration and colony formation abilities. In addition, it significantly increased the % of apoptotic cells, caused cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase, and elevated the LDH release levels in both cancer cells. Furthermore, it increased the expression of cleaved caspase 3, RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL proteins. This novel ciprofloxacin derivative exerted substantial dual inhibition of topo I/II enzyme activities, showed antiproliferative activity, suppressed the cell migration and colony formation abilities for A549 and HepG2 cancer cells and activated the apoptotic pathway. In addition, it initiated another backup deadly pathway, necro-apoptosis, through the activation of the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL pathway.

Abstract
Icariside II (ICS II) is an active flavonoid having anti-tumor properties. However, the role of ICS II in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and its underlying mechanisms have not been investigated to date. In this study, we demonstrated that ICS II inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of RCC cells. Furthermore, ferroptosis, a novel form of cell death, induced in RCC cells by ICS II, accompanied by accumulation of Fe2+, MDA (lipid peroxidation), and ROS (reactive oxygen species), and reduced GSH levels. The underlying mechanism was found to be the downregulation of GPX4, independent of p53, that occurs during ICS II-induced ferroptosis. Overexpression of GPX4 reversed the ferroptosis induced by ICS II. Moreover, ICS II treatment resulted in the upregulation of miR-324-3p, which directly targets GPX4. Overall, our results suggested that ICS II-induced ferroptosis via the miR-324-3p/GPX4 axis in RCC cells could be a promising therapeutic agent for RCC.

SBP-0636457, a Novel Smac Mimetic, Cooperates with Doxorubicin to Induce Necroptosis in Breast Cancer Cells during Apoptosis Blockage. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:2390078. [PMID: 35859663 PMCID: PMC9293568 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2390078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is a common health concern worldwide. Doxorubicin (Dox) is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent to treat various cancers, including BC. However, drug resistance and severe side effects often hinder the clinical application of Dox. Combination therapy is an effective potent strategy to increase chemosensitivity and reduce the adverse effects. Smac is a proapoptotic protein that interacts with inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) and thereby promotes cell death. Smac mimetic compounds can mimic its function and can be used to kill cancer cells. In this study, Dox and SBP-0636457, a novel Smac mimetic, were found to have cooperative effects in inducing BC cell death. Dox and SBP-0636457 cotreatment induced necroptosis instead of apoptosis in BC cells. Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 or mixed-lineage kinase domain-like silencing could attenuate cell death caused by Dox/SBP-0636457 in BC cells. In addition, this combined treatment caused synergistic induction of TNFα, and TNFα/TNFR signalling is essential for cell death induced by Dox/SBP-0636457 in BC cells. Moreover, both canonical and noncanonical nuclear factor kappa B pathways were found to contribute to TNFα upregulation induced by Dox/SBP-0636457. Therefore, the findings suggest that SBP-0636457 combined with Dox is an alternative strategy for treating BC.

Abstract
Keloid is a common dermatofibrotic disease with excessive skin fibroblast proliferation. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as the third gasotransmitter improves fibrosis of various organs and tissues. Our study is aimed at investigating the effects and possible mechanisms of H2S on skin fibroblast proliferation. Scar tissues from six patients with keloid and discarded skin tissue from six normal control patients were collected after surgery, respectively. Plasma H2S content and skin H2S production in patients with keloid were measured. Keloid fibroblasts and transforming growth factor-β1- (TGF-β1, 10 ng/mL) stimulated normal skin fibroblasts were pretreated with H2S donor as NaHS (50 μM) for 4 h. Cell migration after scratch was assessed. The expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), collagen I, and collagen III were detected by immunofluorescence, real-time PCR, and/or Western blot. Intracellular superoxide anion and mitochondrial superoxide were evaluated by dihydroethidium (DHE) and MitoSOX staining, respectively. Mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 staining. Apoptotic cells were detected by TDT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). The expressions of receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3, and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) were measured by Western blot. We found that H2S production was impaired in both the plasma and skin of patients with keloid. In keloid fibroblasts and TGF-β1-stimulated normal skin fibroblasts, exogenous H2S supplementation suppressed the expressions of α-SMA, PCNA, collagen I, and collagen III, reduced intracellular superoxide anion and mitochondrial superoxide, improved the mitochondrial membrane potential, decreased the positive rate of TUNEL staining, and inhibited RIPK1 and RIPK3 expression as well as MLKL phosphorylation. Overall, H2S suppressed skin fibroblast proliferation via oxidative stress alleviation and necroptosis inhibition.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is fairly different from other types of cell-death in biochemical processes, morphological changes and genetics as a special programmed cell-death. Here we summarize the current literatures on ferroptosis, including the cascade reaction of key material metabolism in the process, dysfunction of organelles, the relationship between different organelles and the way positive and negative key regulatory factors to affect ferroptosis in the epigenetic level. Based on material metabolism or epigenetic regulation, it is obvious that the regulatory network of ferroptosis is interrelated and complex.

Abstract
Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most malignant tumors with a poor prognosis. Recently, necroptosis has been reported to participate in the progression of multiple tumors. However, few studies have revealed the relationship between necroptosis and PDAC, and the role of necroptosis in PDAC has not yet been clarified. Methods: The mRNA expression data and corresponding clinical information of PDAC patients were downloaded from the TCGA and GEO databases. The necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) were obtained from the CUSABIO website. Consensus clustering was performed to divide PDAC patients into two clusters. Univariate and LASSO Cox regression analyses were applied to screen the NRGs related to prognosis to construct the prognostic model. The predictive value of the prognostic model was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and ROC curve. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate whether the risk score could be used as an independent predictor of PDAC prognosis. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) were used for functional enrichment analysis. Finally, using qRT-PCR examined NRGs mRNA expression in vitro. Results: Based on the TCGA database, a total of 22 differential expressed NRGs were identified, among which eight NRGs (CAPN2, CHMP4C, PLA2G4F, PYGB, BCL2, JAK3, PLA2G4C and STAT4) that may be related to prognosis were screened by univariate Cox regression analysis. And CAPN2, CHMP4C, PLA2G4C and STAT4 were further selected to construct the prognostic model. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and ROC curve showed that there was a significant correlation between the risk model and prognosis. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that the risk score of the prognostic model could be used as an independent predictor. The model efficacy was further demonstrated in the GEO cohort. Functional analysis revealed that there were significant differences in immune status between high and low-risk groups. Finally, the qRT-PCR results revealed a similar dysregulation of NRGs in PDAC cell lines. Conclusion: This study successfully constructed and verified a prognostic model based on NRGs, which has a good predictive value for the prognosis of PDAC patients.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a programmed form of necrosis characterized by mitochondrial alterations and plasma membrane permeabilization resulting in the release of cytoplasmic content into extracellular space, and leading to inflammatory reactions. Besides its critical role in viral defense mechanisms and inflammatory diseases, necroptosis plays pivotal functions in the drug response of tumors, including prostate cancer. Necroptosis is mainly governed by kinase enzymes, including RIP1, RIP3, and MLKL, and conversely to apoptosis, is a caspase-independent mechanism of cell death. Numerous compounds induce necroptosis in prostate cancer models, including (i) compounds of natural origin, (ii) synthetic and semisynthetic small molecules, and (iii) selenium and selenium-based nanoparticles. Here, we overview the molecular mechanisms underlying necroptosis and discuss the possible implications of drugs inducing necroptosis for prostate cancer therapy.

Abstract
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans is a genetic region consisting of cell surface proteins located on the short arm of chromosome 6. This is also known as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region. The HLA region consists of genes that exhibit complex genetic polymorphisms, and are extensively involved in immune responses. Each individual has a unique set of HLAs. Donor-recipient HLA allele matching is an important factor for organ transplantation. Therefore, an established rapid and accurate HLA typing technology is instrumental to preventing graft-verses-host disease (GVHD) in organ recipients. As of recent, high-throughput sequencing has allowed for an increase read length and higher accuracy and throughput, thus achieving complete and high-resolution full-length typing. With more advanced nanotechnology used in high-throughput sequencing, HLA typing is more widely used in third-generation single-molecule sequencing. This review article summarizes some of the most widely used sequencing typing platforms and evaluates the latest developments in HLA typing kits and their clinical applications.
