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

In response to the bacterial endotoxin, LPS, Kupffer cells are induced to express NO and TNF-␣. These compounds are involved in hepatic inflammation/injury, especially that associated with endotoxic shock. In this study, we demonstrate that ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3[2H]one), a selenoo
A mutant Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) lacking myristoyl fatty acid markedly stimulates the activity of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) without inducing tumor necrosis factor ␣ (TNF␣) production by human monocytes (Tian et al., 1998, Am J Physiol 275:C740.), suggesting that induct
