Abstract

ZBP1 senses viral Z-RNAs to induce necroptotic cell death to restrain viral Infection. ZBP1 is also thought to recognize host cell-derived Z-RNAs to regulate organ development and tissue inflammation in mice. However, it remains unknown how the host-derived Z-RNAs are formed and how these endogenous Z-RNAs are sensed by ZBP1. Here, we report that oxidative stress strongly induces host cell endogenous Z-RNAs, and the Z-RNAs then localize to stress granules for direct sensing by ZBP1 to trigger Necroptosis. Oxidative stress triggers dramatically increase Z-RNA levels in tumor cells, and the Z-RNAs then directly trigger tumor cell Necroptosis through ZBP1. Localization of the induced Z-RNAs to stress granules is essential for ZBP1 sensing. Oxidative stress-induced Z-RNAs significantly promote tumor chemotherapy via ZBP1-driven Necroptosis. Thus, our study identifies oxidative stress as a critical trigger for Z-RNA formation and demonstrates how Z-RNAs are directly sensed by ZBP1 to trigger anti-tumor necroptotic cell death.
