Necroptosis, Tumor Necrosis and

Metastasis
TNF-induced necroptosis:
Tumor necrosis Tumors with necrosis:
Breast tumor
Late stage tumor
with necrosis
More aggressive
Metastasis
More mortality
Poor prognosis

H&E staining : haemotoxylin and eosin

1. Does necroptosis happens in cancer?
2. Is necroptosis responsible for tumor necrosis?
3. Does necroptosis regulate tumor metastasis and
tumor microenvironment?

Summary

1. Necroptosis activation happens in dying tumor cells around


necrotic area

2. Tumor cell necroptosis is responsible for tumor necrosis,


necroptosis blockage shift tumor cell death to apoptosis

3. Tumor cell necroptosis promotes tumor metastasis by suppressing


CD8 T cell and macrophage functions
