Visfatin Protects Rat Pancreatic β-cells against IFN-γ-Induc

发布时间：2021-01-23 20:26

　　Objective Interferon-γ（IFN-γ） plays an important role in apoptosis and was shown to increase the risk of diabetes. Visfatin, an adipokine, has anti-diabetic, anti-tumor, and regulating inflammatory properties. In this study we investigated the effect of visfatin on IFN-γ-induced apoptosis in rat pancreatic β-cells. Methods The RINm5F（rat insulinoma cell line） cells exposed to IFN-γ were treated with or without visfatin. The viability and apoptosis of the cells were assessed by using MTT and flow...
