WATSON D, Loweth A
Br J Biomed Sci . 2010 Jan; 66(4):208-15. PMID: 20095132
The loss of beta-cell mass consequential to the activation of pro-apoptotic signalling events is increasingly recognised as a causal and committed stage in the development of autoimmune, type 1, diabetes...
2.
Trigwell S, Radford P, Page S, Loweth A, James R, Morgan N, et al.
Clin Exp Immunol . 2001 Nov; 126(2):242-9. PMID: 11703367
The generation of an autoimmune response against islet beta-cells is central to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus, and this response is driven by the stimulation of autoreactive lymphocytes...
3.
Loweth A, Watts K, McBain S, Williams G, Scarpello J, Morgan N
Diabetes Obes Metab . 2001 Feb; 2(1):57-60. PMID: 11220355
There is increasing evidence that inappropriate induction of apoptosis in pancreatic beta-cells may precede the development of type 1 diabetes in animal models and in man. One mechanism by which...

Methods Mol Biol . 2000 Jul; 100:311-20. PMID: 10907017

Loweth A, Williams G, James R, Scarpello J, Morgan N
Diabetes . 1998 May; 47(5):727-32. PMID: 9588443
IDDM results from a progressive loss of pancreatic beta-cells that, in humans, may be triggered by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recently, attention has been focused on the...

Loweth A, Williams G, Scarpello J, Morgan N
FEBS Lett . 1997 Jan; 400(3):285-8. PMID: 9009215
Intracellular production of nitric oxide (NO) is thought to mediate the pancreatic B-cell-directed cytotoxicity of cytokines in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and recent evidence has indicated that this may involve induction...
7.
Di Matteo M, Loweth A, Thomas S, Mabley J, Morgan N, Thorpe J, et al.
Apoptosis . 1997 Jan; 2(2):164-77. PMID: 14646551
We have shown that nitric oxide treatment for 30-90 min causes inhibition of insulin secretion, DNA damage and disturbs sub-cellular organization in rat and human islets of Langerhans and HIT-T15...
8.
Loweth A, Williams G, Scarpello J, Morgan N
Exp Cell Res . 1996 Nov; 229(1):69-76. PMID: 8940250
Recent studies have provided evidence that apoptosis of pancreatic beta-cells is important in the early etiology of both type I and type II diabetes mellitus. The mechanisms responsible for induction...
9.
Loweth A, Scarpello J, Morgan N
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 1996 Jan; 218(2):423-7. PMID: 8561771
In pancreatic beta-cells, arachidonic acid accumulation results primarily from phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase A2, and activation of this enzyme has been shown to accompany glucose-induced insulin secretion. Inhibitors of phospholipase...
10.
Loweth A, Scarpello J, Morgan N
Mol Cell Endocrinol . 1995 Aug; 112(2):177-83. PMID: 7489821
The expression of different isoforms of phospholipase A2 in human and rat islets of Langerhans and in the clonal B-cell lines, HIT-T15 and RINm5F has been investigated, using polyclonal antisera...
