Necroptosis is a mode of programmed cell death executed by the mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) pseudokinase following its activation by the upstream receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3), subsequent to activation of death, Toll-like, and pathogen receptors. The pathway originates in innate immunity, although interest has surged in therapeutically targeting necroptosis owing to its dysregulation in inflammatory diseases. Here, we explore how protein conformation and higher order assembly of the pathway effectors - Z-DNA-binding protein-1 (ZBP1), RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL - can be modulated by post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, and lipidation, and intermolecular interactions to tune activities and modulate necroptotic signaling flux.

Background: Recurrent attacks in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) or myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) can lead to severe disability. We aimed to analyse the real-world use of immunotherapies in patients with NMOSD and MOGAD, focusing on changes in treatment strategies, effects on attack rates (ARR) and risk factors for attacks.
Methods: This longitudinal registry-based cohort study included 493 patients (320 with aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG) seropositive NMOSD (65%), 44 with AQP4-IgG seronegative NMOSD (9%) and 129 MOGAD (26%)) with 1247 treatments from 19 German and one Austrian centre from the registry of the neuromyelitis optica study group (NEMOS).

The Brain Tumor Group (BTG) of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) conducts academic clinical trials and translational research to improve clinical management of patients with primary and secondary brain tumors. The EORTC BTG has traditionally played an important role in providing evidence and thus advancing the field, albeit with a main focus on radiotherapy and pharmacotherapy in gliomas. Although examples of well-designed neuro-oncological surgical trials can be found, evidence in surgical neuro-oncology predominantly includes data from uncontrolled prospective series or retrospective cohorts.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies with poor prognosis. The use of organoids to simulate gastric cancer has rapidly developed over the past several years. Patient-derived gastric cancer organoids serve as in vitro models that closely mimics donor characteristics, offering new opportunities for both basic and applied research.
