IB1/JIP-1 is a scaffold protein that regulates the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway, which is activated by environmental stresses and/or by treatment with proinflammatory cytokines including IL-1beta and TNF-alpha. The JNKs play an essential role in many biological processes, including the maturation and differentiation of immune cells and the apoptosis of cell targets of the immune system. IB1 is expressed predominantly in brain and pancreatic beta-cells where it protects cells from proapoptotic programs. Recently, a mutation in the amino-terminus of IB1 was associated with diabetes. A novel isoform, IB2, was cloned and characterized. Overall, both IB1 and IB2 proteins share a very similar organization, with a JNK-binding domain, a Src homology 3 domain, a phosphotyrosine-interacting domain, and polyacidic and polyproline stretches located at similar positions. The IB2 gene (HGMW-approved symbol MAPK8IP2) maps to human chromosome 22q13 and contains 10 coding exons. Northern and RT-PCR analyses indicate that IB2 is expressed in brain and in pancreatic cells, including insulin-secreting cells. IB2 interacts with both JNK and the JNK-kinase MKK7. In addition, ectopic expression of the JNK-binding domain of IB2 decreases IL-1beta-induced pancreatic beta-cell death. These data establish IB2 as a novel scaffold protein that regulates the JNK signaling pathway in brain and pancreatic beta-cells and indicate that IB2 represents a novel candidate gene for diabetes.

Different factors influence ADL performance among nursing home (NH) residents in long term care. The aim was to investigate which factors were associated with a significant change of ADL performance in NH residents, and whether or not these factors were gender-specific. The design was a survival analysis. The 10,199 participants resided in ninety Swiss NHs. Their ADL performance had been assessed by the Resident Assessment Instrument Minimum Data Set (RAI-MDS) in the period from 1997 to 2007. Relevant change in ADL performance was defined as 2 levels of change on the ADL scale between two successive assessments. The occurrence of either an improvement or a degradation of the ADL status) was analyzed using the Cox proportional hazard model. The analysis included a total of 10,199 NH residents. Each resident received between 2 and 23 assessments. Poor balance, incontinence, impaired cognition, a low BMI, impaired vision, no daily contact with proxies, impaired hearing and the presence of depression were, by hierarchical order, significant risk factors for NH residents to experience a degradation of ADL performance. Residents, who were incontinent, cognitively impaired or had a high BMI were significantly less likely to improve their ADL abilities. Male residents with cancer were prone to see their ADL improve. The year of NH entry was significantly associated with either degradation or improvement of ADL performance. Measures aiming at improving balance and continence, promoting physical activity, providing appropriate nourishment and cognitive enhancement are important for ADL performance in NH residents.
