Accordingly, the use of the RIPK1 inhibitor necrostatin-1 (nec-1) reduces the intestinal inflammation and colitis-associated tumor growth in mice with dextran sulfate sodium ((DSS)-induced colitis [99]) while MLKL deficiency inhibits colitis by preventing inflammatory cytokines production and MAPK signaling activation [100]. The gene discussed is MLKL; the disease is neoplasm.
