1	16154537	Here, we found that: (i) XIAP level was inversely correlated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced apoptosis in MIN6N8 insulinoma cells; (ii) adenoviral XIAP overexpression abrogated the TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis through inhibition of caspase activity; (iii) downregulation of XIAP by antisense oligonucleotide or Smac peptide sensitized MIN6N8 cells to TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis; (iv) XIAP expression was induced by TNF-alpha through a nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB)-dependent pathway, and interferon (IFN)-gamma prevented such an induction in a manner independent of NF-kappaB, which presents a potential mechanism underlying cytotoxic IFN-gamma/TNF-alpha synergism.
