Description
Summary:► Pro-inflammatory cytokines induce NADPH oxidase-1 expression in beta cells. ► Inhibitors of NADPH oxidase block NOX-1 expression in beta cells. ► Cellular reactive oxygen species levels modulate NOX-1 expression in beta cells. ► Src-kinase activation by cellular reactive oxygen species activates NOX-1 expression. ► Feedback regulation of NOX-1 in β-cells, an enticing therapeutic target in diabetes. NADPH oxidase-1 (NOX-1) is upregulated in beta cells in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines. Inhibition of NADPH oxidase activity blocked stimulated NOX-1 expression (p
