RIPK1-RIPK3-MLKL-dependent necrosis promotes the aging of mouse male reproductive system
A pair of kinases, RIPK1 and RIPK3, as well as the RIPK3 substrate MLKL cause a form of programmed necrotic cell death in mammals termed necroptosis. We report here that male reproductive organs of both Ripk3- and Mlkl-knockout mice retain ‘youthful’ morphology and function into advanced age, while...
