The proinflammatory cytokine, IL-1β (Interleukin-1β) is a significant determinant of pancreatic apoptosis and cell death that are common characteristics during diabetes. Using human derived pancreatic MIA PaCa-2 cells, we describe one of the underlying molecular mechanisms behind this observation. Incubation of these cells with IL-1β at doses from 0.5 to 3.0 ng/ml caused significant cell death at...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is primarily caused by severe degeneration and loss of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Thus, preventing the death of dopaminergic neurons is thought to be a potential strategy to interfere with the development of PD. In the present work, we studied the effect of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) on 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced apoptosis...
