Scientists have identified a single gene that gives rise to a rare form of diabetes, unique to newborn babies. Mutations of ...

First spotted decades ago but largely forgotten, a newly named form of diabetes stems from undernutrition and is thought to ...

Research has shown that dopamine (DA) plays a key role in how the body regulates the production of insulin. Typically, insulin is secreted by beta-cells in the pancreas in response to glucose—a ...

Explore how functional ingredients are challenging GLP-1 drugs in weight management – and what this shift means for food and ...

Where fat is stored in the body may be more important than excess weight when it comes to diabetes risk, a new study suggests ...

Researchers demonstrated that pancreatic β cells from type 2 diabetes donors can partially regain glucose responsiveness when ...

The mutant mice were diabetic with impaired insulin secretion (Fig. 2a–d) and had normal or even increased insulin sensitivity (Fig. 2e,f). It is thus probable that the β-cell dysfunction was the ...

Researchers have discovered increased levels of of a microRNA in type 2 diabetes, which has a negative effect on insulin secretion. Their experiments on human insulin producing cells in the pancreas ...
