Project description:Necroptosis is a lytic form of cell death that is mediated by the kinase RIPK3 and the pseudokinase MLKL when caspase-8 is inhibited downstream of death receptors, toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), TLR4, and the intracellular Z-form nucleic acid sensor ZBP1. Oligomerization and activation of RIPK3 is driven by interactions with the kinase RIPK1, the TLR adaptor TRIF, or ZBP1. In this study, we use immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH) assays to generate a tissue atlas characterizing RIPK1, RIPK3, Mlkl, and ZBP1 expression in mouse tissues. RIPK1, RIPK3, and Mlkl were co-expressed in most immune cell populations, endothelial cells, and many mucosal epithelia. ZBP1 was expressed in many immune populations, but had more variable expression in epithelia compared to RIPK1, RIPK3, and Mlkl. Intriguingly, expression of ZBP1 was elevated in Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- embryos prior to their succumbing to aberrant necroptosis around embryonic day 15. ZBP1 contributed to this embryonic lethality because rare Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Zbp1-/- mice survived until after birth. Necroptosis mediated by TRIF contributed to the demise of Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Zbp1-/- pups in the perinatal period. Of note, Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Trif-/- Zbp1-/- mice exhibited autoinflammation and morbidity, typically within 5-7 weeks of being born, which is not seen in Casp8-/- Ripk1-/- Trif-/- Zbp1-/-, Casp8-/- Ripk3-/-, or Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice. Therefore, after birth, loss of caspase-8 probably unleashes RIPK1-dependent necroptosis driven by death receptors other than TNFR1.

Project description:Caspase-8 and FADD play key roles in the regulation of cell death by necroptosis. The absence of either protein results in early embryonic lethality due to the activation of the kinase RIPK3 and its phosphorylation of the necroptosis executioner, MLKL. We genetically engineered and characterized a mouse model to monitor MLKL phosphorylation in the absence of necroptosis in vivo. Ablation of caspase-8 or FADD resulted in the transcriptional upregulation in several tissues of ZBP1, a cytosolic nucleic acid sensor capable of activating RIPK3, and ZBP1 was required for spontaneous phosphorylation of MLKL. Our findings provide a novel mechanism by which the FADD-Caspase-8 complex prevents necroptosis.

Project description:Mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) is the executioner in the caspase 8-independent form of programmed cell death called necroptosis. Once Receptor Interacting serine/threonine Protein Kinase 3 (RIPK3) is activated by upstream cell death signals, it phosphorylates MLKL and triggers the oligomerization and membrane translocation required for MLKL induced membrane disruption. Besides phosphorylation, MLKL also undergoes ubiquitylation during the early stages of necroptosis, yet neither the mechanism nor the significance of this event has been demonstrated. Here we show that necroptosis-specific, multi-mono-ubiquitylation of MLKL occurs on biological membranes, and requires its activation and oligomerisation. Inactive MLKL mutants recruited to membranes during necroptosis are ubiquitylated but this results in their proteasome and lysosome dependent turnover. We identified several ubiquitylated lysines however mutation of these did not affect MLKL ubiquitylation in response to a necroptotic stimulus.

Project description:Necroptosis is a lytic and inflammatory form of cell death that is highly constrained to mitigate detrimental collateral tissue damage and impaired immunity. These constraints make it difficult to define the relevance of necroptosis in diseases such as chronic and persistent viral infections and within individual organ systems. The role of necroptotic signalling is further complicated because proteins essential to this pathway, such as receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), have been implicated in roles outside of necroptotic signalling. We sought to address this issue by individually defining the role of RIPK3 and MLKL in chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. We investigated if necroptosis contributes to the death of LCMV-specific CD8+ T cells or virally infected target cells during infection. We provide evidence showing that necroptosis was redundant in the pathogenesis of acute forms of LCMV (Armstrong strain) and the early stages of chronic (Docile strain) LCMV infection in vivo. The number of immune cells, their specificity and reactivity towards viral antigens and viral loads are not altered in the absence of either MLKL or RIPK3 during acute and during the early stages of chronic LCMV infection. However, we identified that RIPK3 promotes immune dysfunction and prevents control of infection at later stages of chronic LCMV disease. This was not phenocopied by the loss of MLKL indicating that the phenotype was driven by a necroptosis-independent function of RIPK3. We provide evidence that RIPK3 signaling evoked a dysregulated type 1 interferone response which we linked to an impaired antiviral immune response and abrogated clearance of chronic LCMV infection.

Project description:Necroptosis is a form of regulated necrotic cell death which promotes inflammation. In cells undergoing necroptosis, the activated RIPK1 kinase mediates the formation of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL complex to promote MLKL oligomerization and execution of necroptosis. RIPK1 kinase activity also promotes cell-autonomous activation of proinflammatory cytokine production in necroptosis. However, the signaling pathways downstream of RIPK1 kinase in necroptosis and how RIPK1 kinase activation controls inflammatory response induced by necroptosis are still largely unknown. Here we quantitatively measured the temporal dynamics of over 7000 confident phosphosites during necroptosis using mass spectrometry. Our study defined a RIPK1-dependent phosphorylation pattern in late necroptosis that is associated with a proinflammatory component marked by p-S473 TRIM28. We show that the activation of p38 MAPK mediated by oligomerized MLKL promotes the phosphorylation of S473 TRIM28, which in turn mediates inflammation during late necroptosis. Taken together, our study illustrates a mechanism by which p38 MAPK may be activated by oligomerized MLKL to promote inflammation in necroptosis.

Project description:Conditional deletion of Caspase-8 in epidermal keratinocytes (Casp8E-KO) causes necroptosis-driven lethal dermatitis1-7. Here, we discover that Casp8 loss leads to accumulation of cytosolic DNA responsible for the activation of a cyclic-GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)/stimulator of interferon (IFN) gene (STING)-mediated transcriptional program. Genetic and biochemical evidence indicate that STING upregulates both Z-DNA binding protein-1 (ZBP1), and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL). Combined Casp8-deficiency- and STING-activation-driven accumulation of Z-nuclei acids, activates ZBP1 and triggers formation of a ZBP1–RIPK1–RIPK3 complex independently of FADD-RIPK1-RIPK3 complex enabling necroptosis execution. Genetically, we reveal a functional overlap between STING and ZBP1 as drivers of lethal dermatitis independently of TNFR1, uncovering a novel aetiology of necroptotic inflammation. Since gain-of-function mutations in human STING cause STING-Associated Vasculopathy with onset in Infancy (SAVI), we assessed the role of STING-induced necroptosis in SAVI’s aetiology. Chronic activation of STING in patients orchestrates a necroptotic transcriptional program which is confirmed in the N153S-SAVI preclinical mouse model where immune cell–driven pathology and lethality are remarkably rescued by RIPK3 co-deletion. These findings establish STING-driven ZBP1-mediated necroptosis as a central pathogenic mechanism in both Casp8-deficient inflammation and SAVI and suggest that targeting the ZBP1-RIPK3-MLKL axis holds therapeutic potential for interferonopathies characterised by excessive necroptosis.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mechanisms used by cells to release biomolecules. A common necroptosis effector— mixed lineage kinase like (MLKL)--- was recently found to participate in the biogenesis of small and large EVs independent of its function in necroptosis. The objective of the current study is to gain mechanistic insights into EV biogenesis during necroptosis. We performed mass spectrometry-based proteomics on EVs released by healthy or necroptotic cells. Necroptosis increased the number of EVs released and altered the protein contents within the EVs. Comparing to EVs released by healthy cells, EVs released during necroptosis contained markedly higher number of unique proteins. Receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and MLKL were among the proteins enriched in EVs released during necroptosis. Further, MEFs derived from mice deficient of Rab27a and Rab27b showed diminished basal EV release but responded to necroptosis with enhanced EV biogenesis as the wildtype MEFs. In contrast, necroptosis-associated EVs was sensitive to Ca2+ depletion or lysosomal disruption. Neither treatments affected the RIPK3-mediated MLKL phosphorylation. Our data suggests that necroptosis switches EV biogenesis from a Rab27a/b dependent mechanism to a lysosomal mediated mechanism.

Project description:Ionizing radiation promotes cytosolic DNA sensing and consequent antitumor immune responses. But how tumor cell-intrinsic cytosolic DNA sensing is initiated by radiation remains poorly defined. Here, we demonstrated that STING-mediated type I interferon production in tumor cells after radiation relied on the engagement of MLKL-mediated necroptosis, which was elicited by the ZBP1-RIPK3 signaling axis. Physiologically, tumor cell-intrinsic ZBP1-MLKL cascade augmented antitumor immune responses after radiation largely by regulating STING signaling. Mechanistically, ZBP1-MLKL-dependent necroptosis maintained the enrichment of mitochondria DNA inside the cytosol of tumor cells after radiation in a cell-density dependent fashion, contributing to type I interferon responses. In contrast, ablation of caspase-8 unleashed ZBP1-MLKL cascade to gain enhanced cytosolic DNA sensing, and in turn potentiated therapeutic effects of radiation. Thus, our findings uncover an unanticipated mechanism that ZBP1-MLKL-dependent necroptosis drives cytosolic DNA sensing-mediated antitumor immunity after radiation, and provide new strategy to improve radiotherapy by inhibiting caspase-8 cascade.

Project description:Necroptosis is a caspase-independent, pro-inflammatory mode of programmed cell death which relies on the activation of the terminal effector, MLKL, by the upstream protein kinase RIPK3. To mediate necroptosis, RIPK3 must stably interact with, and phosphorylate the pseudokinase domain of MLKL. While the precise molecular cue that prompts RIPK3 to activate MLKL is incompletely understood, it is known that RIPK3 is highly regulated by phosphorylation. Here, we sought to identify phosphorylation sites of RIPK3 and dissect their regulatory functions. Phosphoproteomics identified 21 phosphorylation sites in HT29 cells overexpressing human RIPK3. By comparing cells expressing wild-type and kinase-inactive D142N RIPK3, autophosphorylation sites and substrates of other cellular kinases were distinguished. Of these 21 phosphosites, extensive mutational analyses identified only pT224 and pS227 as crucial, synergistic sites for stable interaction with MLKL to promote necroptosis, while the recently reported activation loop phosphorylation at S164/T165 negatively regulate the kinase activity of RIPK3. Despite being able to phosphorylate MLKL to a similar or higher extent than the wild-type RIPK3, mutation of T224, S227, and RHIM in RIPK3 attenuated or compromised their abilities to mediate necroptosis. This finding highlights the stable recruitment of human MLKL by RIPK3 to the necrosome as an essential checkpoint in necroptosis signaling, which is independent from and precedes the phosphorylation of MLKL.
