J Neurosci. 2008 Aug 20;28(34):8624-34.

We herein report that an overexpression of TFAM in HeLa cells significantly inhibited rotenone-induced mitochondrial ROS generation and the subsequent NF-kappaB (nuclear factor-kappaB) nuclear translocation.

Rotenone, an inhibitor of complex I, mimicked this effect.
Surprisingly, TFAM, a nuclear-encoded transcription factor important for sustaining expression of mitochondrial genes, was down-regulated in islets expressing DN79PDX1.
