Necroptosis may be one of the main types of cell necrosis in diseases.Necroptosis and apoptosis convert to each other.Necroptosis may be important to cure of two kinds of diseases.One involves acute critical diseases such as acute ischemia,acute inflammation and acute organ failure,etc.The other includes malignant tumors and virus infections.Prevention from necroptosis is beneficial to the therapy for the former.On the contrary,promotion to necroptosis is beneficial to that for the latter.Collectively,the findings of necroptosis make modulation of necrosis possible.The research on necroptosis will certainly promote our understanding in cell death and disease mechanisms as well as clinical therapy.展开更多
