  "summary": "Marfan syndrome (MFS) causes thoracic aortic aneurysm through mutations in the fibrillin-1 gene and subsequent dysregulated TGF-{beta} signalling. Mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) executes necroptosis after RIPK3-dependent phosphorylation, but also functions in endosomal trafficking. Here we show that MLKL phosphorylation sustains TGF-{beta} receptor recycling and aortic wall…",
