... autophagic, or type II) that is characterized by the massive accumulation of autophagosomes. Regulators of apoptosis (e.g. Bcl-2 family members) also modulate autophagy, suggesting an intimate cross-talk between these two degradative pathways. It is still unclear whether autophagic vacuolization has...

...Anath Shalev Glucotoxicity plays a major role in pancreatic β-cell apoptosis and diabetes progression, but the factors involved have remained largely unknown. Our recent studies have identified TXNIP (thioredoxin-interacting protein) as a novel pro-apoptotic β-cell factor that is induced by glucose...

Use of a degradation-resistant NF-κB protein inhibitor (ΔNIκBα), specifically expressed in β-cells, significantly reduced IL-1β+IFN-γ-induced apoptosis. Moreover, in vivo , it protected against multiple low-dose...
