Type 1 diabetes is a disease in which the body mistakenly attacks itself as the immune system destroys the pancreas's insulin ...

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 ...

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 ...

Our glycaemic balance is based on the ability of the pancreatic beta cells to detect glucose and secrete insulin to maintain our blood sugar levels. If these cells malfunction, the balance is broken, ...

Approximately 9.5 million people globally live with type 1 diabetes, a chronic autoimmune disease where T cells from the body's immune system destroy insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, which are ...

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 ...

A recent study reveals that age plays a significant role in the outcomes of intermittent fasting. Researchers from Technical University of Munich (TUM), LMU Hospital Munich, and Helmholtz Munich ...

Approximately 9.5 million people globally live with Type 1 diabetes, a chronic autoimmune disease where T cells from the body’s immune system destroy insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, which are ...

A distinct type of immune cells was found in pancreas of type 1 diabetic people; the discovery offers target for early detection and prevention of diabetes.

Scientists say that an experimental monoclonal antibody drug called mAb43 appears to prevent and reverse the onset of clinical type 1 diabetes in mice, and in some cases, to lengthen the animals' ...

Pancreatic islets from adult mice. On the left, islet composed of different types of endocrine cells. Right: pancreatic islet composed solely of beta cells. Our glycaemic balance is based on the ...
