While it is well known that interferon-␥ (IFN␥) and tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF␣) play a role in the regulation of thyroid growth and differentiated functions, the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in mediating the effects of IFN␥ and TNF␣ on thyroid function are unknown. In the present st

BACKGROUND. SGP-2 is a ubiquitous secreted glycoprotein that prevents cellular apoptosis. This study was carried out to determine the extracellular action of SGP-2 in a model of tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF)-induced cytotoxicity using two human prostatic cancer lines, LNCaP and PC3. These two lines
Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is known to exert deleterious effects on pancreatic beta-cells and is implicated in the development of type 1 (autoimmune) diabetes mellitus. In this study, we investigated signaling mechanisms mediating the effects of IFN-gamma in pancreatic beta-cells using a different
