摘要

Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS-3) is a negative feedback regulator of IFN-gamma signaling, shown up-regulated in mouse bone marrow cells by the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and IFN-gamma. IL-1beta and IFN-gamma alone, or potentiated by TNF-alpha, are cytotoxic to the insulin producing pancreatic beta-cells and beta-cell lines in vitro and suggested to contribute to the specific beta-cell destruction in Type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Using a doxycycline-inducible SOCS-3 expression system in the rat beta-cell line INS-1, we demonstrate that the toxic effect of both IL-1beta or IFN-gamma at concentrations that reduced the viability by 50 over 3 days, was fully preventable when SOCS-3 expression was turned on in the cells. At cytokine concentrations or combinations more toxic to the cells, SOCS-3 overexpression yielded a partial protection. Whereas SOCS-3-mediated inhibition of IFN-gamma signaling is described in other cell systems, SOCS-3 mediated inhibition of IL-1beta signaling has not previously been described. In addition we show that SOCS-3 prevention of IL-1beta-induced toxicity is accompanied by inhibited transcription of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) by 80, resulting in 60 decreased formation of the toxic nitric oxide (NO). Analysis of isolated native rat islets exposed to IL-1beta revealed a naturally occurring but delayed up-regulated SOCS-3 transcription. Influencing SOCS-3 expression thus represents an approach for affecting cytokine-induced signal transduction at a proximal step in the signal cascade, potentially useful in future therapies aimed at reducing the destructive potential of beta-cell cytotoxic cytokines in T1DM, as well as other cytokine-dependent diseases.
