a Schematic overview of compound screen workflow. b L929 cells were pretreated with individual compound for 1 h following treatment with TNF (10 ng/ml), Smac mimetic (SM-164) (0.1 μM) and pan-caspase inhibitor z-VAD (10 μM) (TSZ) to induce necroptosis. Cell viabilities were determined with Cell Counting Kit-8 method and normalized to control (DMSO + TSZ). The concentration of individual compound is 15 μM. NEC-1 (20 μM) was chose as positive control. The red line indicated fold change compared to the control is 4. The screen data for each compound was singlicate. c Classified necroptosis inhibitors into known or novel inhibitors according to whether compounds had been reported to involved in necroptosis. d Classified necroptosis inhibitors into different groups according to their properties.
