The beta cells of the pancreas don’t need the assistance of other pancreatic cells to produce insulin, according to new research. The findings are not only a potential game-changer for diabetics, but ...
Researchers at UChicago have developed a nanoparticle system that can effectively deliver mRNA to insulin-producing cells, protecting them from the body’s autoimmune response ...
Diabetes isn't curable because of the cells that produce insulin, the hormone key to helping the body break down blood sugar. These are the beta cells in the pancreas that either can't make enough ...
Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and estimated to affect 9.5 million people worldwide. Low insulin levels allow ...
How does obesity affect insulin production? Researchers are shining light on new stages of the ERK pathway. Researchers at the Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine have uncovered a key ...
Beta cells (marked in green) in the pancreas are organized in structures termed islets. In most adults, it was found that a subset become senescent and display the marker p16, shown here in red. The ...
Three years ago, the inceptor protein was discovered and its role as an inhibitor of the insulin signaling pathway was described. Inceptor and the insulin receptor are located on the surface of beta ...
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Researchers with City of Hope ®, one of the largest cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States and a leading research center for diabetes and other ...
Therapeutic effects were sustained off treatment, with persistent reduction in HbA1c and improvement in beta-cell function 3 months after last dose, suggesting disease-modifying potential of ...
Chinese scientists have achieved the world’s first reversal of type-2 diabetes using stem-cell therapy. This is no mean feat, ...
Prof. Heiko Lickert is the director of the Institute of Diabetes and Regeneration Research at Helmholtz Munich, professor at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), and member of the German Center ...
An “immune system reset” eliminated autoimmune, or Type 1, diabetes in mice in a study conducted at. Researchers say the strategy could also have potential for treating other autoimmune diseases and ...
