N2 - Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases including type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). TNFalpha in combination with interleukin-1-beta (IL-1beta) and/or interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) induces specific destruction of the pancreatic insulin-producing beta cells. Suppressor of cytokine signalling-3 (SOCS-3) proteins regulate signalling induced by a number of cytokines including growth hormone, IFNgamma and IL-1beta which signals via very distinctive pathways. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of SOCS-3 on TNFalpha-induced signalling in beta cells. We found that apoptosis induced by TNFalpha alone or in combination with IL-1beta was suppressed by expression of SOCS-3 in the beta cell line INSr3#2. SOCS-3 inhibited TNFalpha-induced phosphorylation of the mitogen activated protein kinases ERK1/2, p38 and JNK in INSr3#2 cells and in primary rat islets. Furthermore, SOCS-3 repressed TNFalpha-induced degradation of IkappaB, NFkappaB DNA binding and transcription of the NFkappaB-dependent MnSOD promoter. Finally, expression of Socs-3 mRNA was induced by TNFalpha in rat islets in a transient manner with maximum expression after 1-2h. The ability of SOCS-3 to regulate signalling induced by the three major pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of T1DM makes SOCS-3 an interesting therapeutic candidate for protection of the beta cell mass.
