Model of TNF-induced cell death. In most types of cells FADD, caspase-8 (C8), RIP1, and RIP3 form complex (necrosome) upon TNF stimulation. Necrosome at this stage is transient due to that C8 cuts RIP1 and RIP3, and thus no death signal is transduced. Inhibition of C8 stabilizes necrosome and thus allows the signal to flow toward necroptosis. This News & Views focuses on another driving force—RIP3-mediated enhancement of aerobic respiration—which pushes necroptosis-prone cells towards necroptosis. RIP3 in either cytosol- or mitochondrion-associated necrosome is involved in the activation of metabolic enzymes with different subcellular locations (upper, enlarged schematic diagram). PYGL, PDC, GLUL, and GLUD1 are activated by RIP3, and the activation of PDC contributes more than the others to RIP3-mediated enhancement of aerobic respiration. ROS produced by the enhanced respiration promote the formation of functional necrosome via oxidation of RIP1 and subsequent RIP1 autophosphorylation on serine 161
