Locally released cytokines contribute to beta cell dysfunction and apoptosis in Type 1 diabetes. In vitro exposure of insulin producing INS-1E cells to the cytokines interleukin (IL)-1beta + interferon (IFN) gamma leads to a significant increase in apoptosis. To characterize the genetic networks im...

We have used RNA-seq to identify transcripts, including splice variants, expressed in human islets of Langerhans under control condition or following exposure to the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). A total of 29,776 transcripts were identified as expressed...

Viral infections and local production of IFNgamma might contribute to beta-cell dysfunction/death in Type 1 diabetes. Double stranded RNA accumulates in the cytosol of viral-infected cells, and exposure of purified rat beta cells to dsRNA (polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, PIC) in combination with IF...

Pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and death are central in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. Saturated fatty acids cause beta-cell failure and contribute to diabetes development in genetically predisposed individuals. Here we used RNA-sequencing to map transcripts expressed in five palmitate-treat...

The aim of the present study was to explore the transcriptome of pancreatic islets and, based on this information, to prepare a comprehensive and open access inventory of insulin-producing ?-cell gene expression, the beta-Cell Gene Atlas (BCGA). INS-1 cells, primary rat beta-cells (>87% beta-cells) ...

Type 1 diabetes mellitus results from an autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta-cells. Based on findings suggesting NF-kappa B plays a role in beta cell apoptosis, we blocked NF-kappa B activation in cytokine-exposed FACS sorted beta cells by a recombinant adenovirus (AdI kappa B((SA)2)) containi...

Time course treatment with 0.4 mM Palmitate and 200 nM thapsigargin of insulinoma INS-1E cells. Timepoints; 0, 4, 16 and 24h in biological duplicates within an iTRAQ 8 set for palmitate and thapsigargin, respectively.
