Type: type of cell death

Necroptosis, is a form of programmed cell death that is regulated by the cell's own mechanisms. It is a form of cell death that is mediated by specific signaling pathways, including the RIP1-RIP3-MLKL pathway. Necroptosis is characterized by the activation of specific enzymes, such as RIP1 and RIP3, which lead to the formation of a necroptotic complex that ultimately causes cell death.

Necroptosis expression can be elevated in certain types of cancer, it can also be reduced in other types of cancer.
