Olive oil bioactives, including MUFAs, polyphenols, and triterpenoids, modulate gene expression linked to insulin sensitivity ...

Researchers at IISc Bengaluru discover potential drug-free treatment for diabetes by enhancing beta-cell function with small ...

For several years, Lena Eliasson's research group has explored mechanisms that regulate insulin secretion from beta cells situated in the islets of Langerhans within the pancreas. Together with ...

Now, the researchers have unlocked another, even more significant function of the receptor: it binds insulin and directs its breakdown within beta cells. This discovery could lead to new ...

Diabetes affects an estimated 415 million people worldwide, with type 2 diabetes (T2D) accounting for about 90% of these ...

Dr Samet Sahin from the School of Engineering has received £406,000 funding to develop a simple tool to allow healthcare professionals to quickly and ...

One of the most exciting developments in diabetes treatment is the use of new medications that help control blood sugar in ...

Both Inceptor and the insulin receptor are located on the surface of beta cells, where Inceptor can block the insulin receptor, thus reducing the cells' insulin sensitivity and weakening the ...

MHH team aims to intervene in the autoimmune process and stop the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas ...

a biomarker indicating that transplanted beta cells are producing insulin. C-peptide levels also increase with a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT), consistent with insulin secretion in response to ...
