Funded Activity Summary

Cell death is a normal process that permits the growth and defense of our vital tissues. One kind of cell death, necroptosis, is characterised by the swelling and bursting of cells, triggering inflammation. Necroptosis is a key feature of illnesses ranging from colitis to arthritis, and contributes to the brain and heart damage that follows strokes and heart attacks. Understanding necroptotic cell death will pave the way for new therapies for those who suffer from these devastating conditions.
