Abstract

A form of programmed cell death, necroptosis, in intestinal epithelial cells initiates mucosal inflammation. A study now finds that prostanoid EP4 receptor signalling interferes with RIPK1/RIPK3-dependent MLKL activation, thereby inhibiting necroptosis and accelerating resolution of inflammation.
