Abstract:
As a programmed cell death manner which is distinguished from apoptosis and autophagy, necroptosis is a newly discovered pathway of regulated necrosis that requires the protein receptor interacting protein kinases 1 and 3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein. Necroptosis is mediated by death receptors, toll-like receptors and probably other mediators. Emerging evidences have delineated that necroptosis plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various blinding eye diseases. In this review, the related mechanism of necroptosis, the relationship between necroptosis and multiple blinding eye diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and glaucoma, and the potential therapeutic targets of necroptosis are discussed.
