Abstract
The kinase RIPK3 initiates necroptosis, which has been reported to promote inflammation in various pathological conditions. Here, the authors show that genetic ablation of Ripk3results in adipocyte apoptosis and white adipose tissue inflammation in obese mice, which promotes glucose intolerance.
