The pseudokinase MLKL mediates programmed hepatocellular necrosis independently of RIPK3 during hepatitis

Abstract excerpt

Although necrosis and necroinflammation are central features of many liver diseases, the role of programmed necrosis in the context of inflammation-dependent hepatocellular death remains to be fully determined. Here, we have demonstrated that the pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), which plays a key role in the execution of receptor-interacting protein (RIP) kinase-dependent necroptosis,...
