Modes of extrinsic cell death, apoptosis and necroptosis, have now been shown to be potent drivers of deleterious inflammation, and mutations in core repressors of these pathways underlie many autoinflammatory disorders. The receptor-interacting protein (RIP) kinases, RIPK1 and RIPK3, are integral players in extrinsic cell death signalling by regulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF), and coordinating the activation of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, which underpin patholog- ical inflammation in numerous chronic inflammatory disorders. In this review, we firstly give an overview of the inflammatory cell death pathways regulated by RIPK1 and RIPK3. We then discuss how dysregulated signalling along these pathways can contribute to chronic inflammatory disorders of the joints, skin, and gastrointestinal tract, and discuss the emerging evidence for targeting these RIP kinases in the clinic.

  • Caspase-8, Receptor-Interacting Protein Kinase 1 (RIPK1), and RIPK3 Regulate Retinoic Acid-Induced Cell Differentiation and Necroptosis

This article is published with open access Abstract Among caspase family members, Caspase-8 is unique, with associated critical activities to induce and suppress death receptor-mediated apoptosis and necroptosis, respectively. Caspase-8 inhibits necroptosis by suppressing the function of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1 or RIP1) and RIPK3 to activate mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL). Disruption of Caspase-8 expression causes embryonic lethality in mice, which is rescued by depletion of either Ripk3 or Mlkl, indicating that the embryonic lethality is caused by activation of necroptosis. Here, we show that knockdown of Caspase-8 expression in embryoid bodies derived from ES cells markedly enhances retinoic acid (RA)-induced cell differentiation and necroptosis, both of which are dependent on Ripk1 and Ripk3; however, the enhancement of RA-induced 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: cell differentiation is independent of Mlkl and necrosome formation. RA treatment obviously enhanced the expression of RA-specific target genes having the retinoic acid response element (RARE) in their promoter regions to induce cell differentiation, and induced marked expression of RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL to stimulate necroptosis. Caspase-8 knockdown induced RIPK1 and RIPK3 to translocate into the nucleus and to form a complex with RA receptor (RAR), and RAR interacting with RIPK1 and RIPK3 showed much stronger binding activity to RARE than RAR without RIPK1 or RIPK3.

Inflammasomes are specialized protein complexes that process pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-18 to bioactive forms for protection from a wide range of pathogens, as well as environmental and host-derived danger molecules. Programmed cell death has been extensively studied, and its role in the development, homeostasis, and control of infection and danger is widely appreciated. Apoptosis and the recently recognized necroptosis are the best-characterized forms of programmed death, and the interplay between them through death receptor signaling is also being studied. Moreover, growing evidence suggests that many of the signaling molecules known to regulate programmed cell death can also modulate inflammasome activation in a cell-intrinsic manner. Therefore, in this review, we will discuss the current knowledge concerning the role of the signaling molecules originally associated with programmed cell death in the activation of inflammasome and IL-1β processing. Keywords: inflammasome; apoptosis; necroptosis; programmed cell death; Caspase-8; RIPK1/3; MLKL; PGAM5; DRP1 1. Introduction Homeostasis is a principle property of living organisms and it is maintained at the systemic, tissue, and cellular levels through the homeostatic control system.

  • RIP1, a Kinase on the Crossroads of a Cell's Decision to Live Or
    Cell Death and Differentiation (2007) 14, 400–410 & 2007 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 1350-9047/07 $30.00 www.nature.com/cdd Review RIP1, a kinase on the crossroads of a cell’s decision to live or die N Festjens1,2, T Vanden Berghe1, S Cornelis1 and P Vandenabeele*,1 Binding of inflammatory cytokines to their receptors, stimulation of pathogen recognition receptors by pathogen-associated molecular patterns, and DNA damage induce specific signalling events. A cell that is exposed to these signals can respond by activation of NF-jB, mitogen-activated protein kinases and interferon regulatory factors, resulting in the upregulation of antiapoptotic proteins and of several cytokines. The consequent survival may or may not be accompanied by an inflammatory response. Alternatively, a cell can also activate death-signalling pathways, resulting in apoptosis or alternative cell death such as necrosis or autophagic cell death. Interplay between survival and death-promoting complexes continues as they compete with each other until one eventually dominates and determines the cell’s fate. RIP1 is a crucial adaptor kinase on the crossroad of these stress-induced signalling pathways and a cell’s decision to live or die. Following different upstream signals, particular RIP1-containing complexes are formed; these initiate only a limited number of cellular responses. In this review, we describe how RIP1 acts as a key integrator of signalling pathways initiated by stimulation of death receptors, bacterial or viral infection, genotoxic stress and T-cell homeostasis.

During the past decade, the concept of caspase-8 functioning has been changed by findings of its additional roles in diverse biological processes. Although caspase-8 was not originally thought to be involved in the inflammation process, many recent works have determined that caspase-8 plays an important role in the regulatory functions of inflammatory processes. In this review, we describe the recent advances in knowledge regarding the manner in which caspase-8 modulates the inflammatory responses concerning inflammasome activation, cell death, and cytokine induction.

For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles. The purity of RIPK1 was determined to be >90% by densitometry, approx. MW 63 kDa. Scientific Background RIPK1 or Receptor Interacting Protein Kinase 1 is a serine/threonine kinase that was originally identified as interacting with the cytoplasmic domain of FAS. RIPK1 has been deemed as an important element in the signal transduction machinery that mediates programmed cell death. RIPK1 has been shown to interact with TRADD, TRAF1 TRAF2 and TRAF3 and TRADD can act as an RIPK1, Active adaptor protein to recruit RIPK1 to the TNFR1 complex in a Recombinant human protein expressed in Sf9 cells TNF-dependent process (1).
