NEMO/IKKγ regulates an early NF-κB-independent cell death checkpoint during TNF signaling

TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) ligation can result in cell survival or cell death. What determines which of the two opposing responses is triggered is not fully understood. The current model suggests that it is the activation of the NF-κB pathway and its induction of pro-survival genes, or the lack thereof,...

Article TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) ligation can result in cell survival or cell death. What determines which of the two opposing responses is triggered is not fully understood. The current model suggests that it is the activation of the NF-κB pathway and its induction of pro-survival genes, or the lack thereof, which determines the outcome. NF-κB essential modifier (NEMO)/IκB kinase gamma (IKKγ)-deficient cells are highly sensitive to apoptosis and since NEMO is essential for NF-κB activation, it has been assumed that this is due to the lack of NF-κB. This study demonstrates that this assumption was incorrect and that NEMO has another anti-apoptotic function that is independent of its role in the NF-κB pathway. NEMO prevents receptor interacting protein-1 (RIP1) from engaging CASPASE-8 prior to NF-κB-mediated induction of anti-apoptotic genes. Without NEMO, RIP1 associates with CASPASE-8 resulting in rapid tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced apoptosis. These results suggest that there are two cell death checkpoints following TNF stimulation: an early transcription-independent checkpoint whereby NEMO restrains RIP1 from activating the caspase cascade, followed by a later checkpoint dependent on NF-κB-mediated transcription of pro-survival genes. 2009-04-17 2009-09 /pmc/articles/PMC2728158/ /pubmed/19373245 http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/cdd.2009.41 Text en http://www.nature.com/authors/editorial_policies/license.html#terms Users may view, print, copy, and download text and data-mine the content in such documents, for the purposes of academic research, subject always to the full Conditions of use:http://www.nature.com/authors/editorial_policies/license.html#terms
