Suppressor of cytokine signaling gene expression in human pancreatic islets: modulation by cytokines
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) proteins negatively regulate signal transduction of several cytokines. Since cytokines participate in the pancreatic islet damage in type 1 diabetes, the aim of our study was to investigate the expression of SOCS-1, -2 and -3 in isolated human islets, in basal conditions and after exposure, in vitro, to a combination of interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin...
