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

## Abstract A proinflammatory cytokine IFN‐γ stimulates microglia in the injured brain; however, signaling pathways for IFN‐γ‐mediated microglia activation are not well characterized. In the present study, a protein kinase C (PKC) activator phorbol 12‐myristate 13‐acetate (PMA) acts in concert with
## Abstract ## Objective Protein kinase Cζ (PKCζ), an atypical PKC, has been found to be transcriptionally up‐regulated in human osteoarthritic (OA) articular cartilage. This study was undertaken to examine the role of PKCζ in interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β)–induced NF‐κB signaling in human OA chondrocytes
