Abstract
We investigated the effects of daintain/AIF-1, a novel inflammatory cytokine, on INS-1β cells. Cells incubated with daintain/AIF-1 showed decreased cell viability and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, as well as upregulated apoptosis and NO production. These deleterious effects of daintain/AIF-1 indicate that daintain/AIF-1 plays important roles in the dysfunction of pancreatic β cells in type-1 diabetes.Entities:
