Murine Pancreatic Beta TC3 Cells Show Greater 2′, 5′-Oligoadenylate Synthetase (2′5′AS) Antiviral Enzyme Activity and Apoptosis Following IFN-α or Poly(I:C) Treatment than Pancreatic Alpha TC3 Cells

Type 1 diabetes is caused by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, possibly virus initiated. Virus infection induces alpha-interferon (IFN-α), leading to upregulation of genes encoding double-stranded (ds) RNA-dependent antiviral enzymes 2′, 5′-oligoadenylate synthetase (2′5′AS) and PKR (...
