1 11976344 Caspase-8 and caspase-10 were also recruited to the DISC in TRAIL-resistant cells, but their further activation was inhibited by two antiapoptotic proteins termed cellular Fas-associated death domain-like interleukin-1beta-converting enzyme-inhibitory protein (c-FLIP) and phosphoprotein enriched in diabetes/phosphoprotein enriched in astrocytes-15kDa (PED/PEA-15).
2 17003335 Fas engagement can be switched from death signal to induction of proliferation when the caspase 8 inhibitor, FLICE-inhibitory protein (FLIP), is active.
3 17003335 Consistent with our in vitro results, IL-1beta knockout mice displayed glucose intolerance along with a decrease in islet Fas, FLIP, Pax4, and PDX-1 transcripts.
4 19343319 In addition to the upregulation of known pro-apoptotic genes, a number of anti-apoptotic genes including BIRC3, BCL2A1, TNFAIP3, CFLAR and TRAF1 were induced by cytokines through NF-kappaB.
5 19432816 In TRAIL-resistant cells, however, DR5-mediated DISC was modified by receptor-interacting protein (RIP), cellular FADD-like interleukin-1beta-converting enzyme inhibitory protein (c-FLIP) and phosphoprotein enriched in diabetes or in astrocyte-15 (PED/PEA-15).
6 12031968 Furthermore, cFLIP overexpression increased the basal and interleukin-1beta-mediated transcriptional activity of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, whereas it did not change cytokine-induced inducible nitric oxide synthase gene transcription and nitric oxide secretion.
7 12031968 The presence of cFLIP prevented the weak TNF-alpha-induced reduction in cellular insulin content and secretion; however, it did not prevent the decrease in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion induced by the combined cytokines, in agreement with our previous data demonstrating that interferon-gamma alone could induce these beta-cell dysfunctions.
8 12031968 Together, our data demonstrate that overexpression of cFLIP protects mouse beta-cells against TNF-alpha-induced caspase-8 activation and apoptosis and is correlated with enhanced NF-kappaB transcriptional activity, suggesting that cFLIP may have an impact on the outcome of death receptor-triggered responses by directing the intracellular signals from beta-cell death to beta-cell survival.
