PLAGL1 overexpression exacerbates type 1 diabetes by inducing β‐cell apoptosis via oxidative stress‐dependent dual DNA damage and cGAS/STING pathway activation [PDF]
Background Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) arises from autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β‐cells. Pleomorphic adenoma gene‐like 1 (PLAGL1) overexpression has been linked to β‐cell apoptosis, but molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood ...

Assessing tumor progression factors by somatic gene transfer into a mouse model: Bcl-xL promotes islet tumor cell invasion. [PDF]
Tumors develop through multiple stages, implicating multiple effectors, but the tools to assess how candidate genes contribute to stepwise tumor progression have been limited. We have developed a novel system in which progression of phenotypes in a mouse
