Receptor-interacting kinase-3 (RIP3) is a key regulator of necroptosis. It has been shown that the expression of RIP3 is silenced in most cancer cells and tissues due to genomic methylation. However, the regulatory mechanisms controlling RIP3 expression in cancer cells have not been fully elucidated. Here, we report that Sp1, a well-characterized zinc-finger transcription factor, directly regulates RIP3 expression in cancer cells. Knockdown of endogenous Sp1 significantly decreases the transcription of Rip3, thereby further inhibiting necroptosis. The re-expression of Sp1 restores the necroptotic response. In addition, knockdown of epigenetic regulator UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains 1) in RIP3-null cancer cells reduces the methylation level of the Rip3 promoter. This effect is sufficient to trigger the expression of RIP3 in RIP3-null cancer cells. The induced expression of RIP3 by UHRF1 RNAi depends on the presence of Sp1. Remarkably, the ectopic expression of RIP3 in RIP3-null cancer cells results in a decrease in tumor growth in mice. Therefore, our findings offer insights into RIP3 expression control in cancer cells and suggest an inhibitory effect of RIP3 on tumorigenesis.
