LIGHT/IFN‐γ triggers β cells apoptosis via NF‐κB/Bcl2‐dependent mitochondrial pathway

LIGHT recruits and activates naive T cells in the islets at the onset of diabetes. IFN‐γ secreted by activated T lymphocytes is involved in beta cell apoptosis. However, whether LIGHT sensitizes IFNγ‐induced beta cells destruction remains unclear. In this study, we used the murine beta cell line MI...
