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 Weill Cornell Medicine report losing a type of beta cell may contribute to the development of diabetes. The researchers measured gene expression in individual beta cells of mice and ...

Scientists have discovered why type 1 diabetes is more severe and aggressive when it develops in young children. Type 1 is caused by the immune system attacking cells in the pancreas that control ...

A recent study identified that a special group of pancreatic beta cells are crucial for triggering the blood sugar response. We know that beta cells of the pancreas play an important role in ...

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, ...

Scientists have discovered that human stomach cells can be genetically reprogrammed to act like pancreatic beta cells and ...

Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and ...

Pancreas development in pigs resembles humans much more closely than does the established mouse model. An international team ...
