Fig. 6From: Inhibition of MLKL-dependent necroptosis via downregulating interleukin-1R1 contributes to neuroprotection of hypoxic preconditioning in transient global cerebral ischemic ratsSchematic depicting mechanism by which hypoxic preconditioning protects neuron against tGCI in the hippocampal CA1 through inhibition of MLKL-dependent necroptosis. The expression of RIP3 and the interaction of RIP1-RIP3 were increased in CA1 after reperfusion of tGCI. In addition, tGCI enhanced the expression of IL-1R1, which in turn, increased the RIP3-p-MLKL interaction, promoted the plasma membrane translocation of p-MLKL and the influx of Ca2+, ultimately inducing neuronal necroptosis. Hypoxic preconditioning downregulated the expression of IL-1R1, disrupted the interaction between IL-1R1 and the necrosome, attenuated the expression and the plasma membrane translocation of p-MLKL, thus decreasing the Ca2+ influx and alleviating neuronal death in CA1 after tGCI.
