Patients with type 2 diabetes on a carbohydrate-restricted diet showed recovery in beta-cell function, researchers reported in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. “Beta-cell ...

The body has an intricate system to defend against infections where each type of immune cell plays a distinct role. Now, a ...

Verapamil therefore appears to bolster remaining endogenous beta-cell function, which has been shown to persist in people with type 1 diabetes longer than previously thought.

Biomea Fusion, Inc. announced positive results from preclinical experiments showing that its investigational drug icovamenib enhances beta cell function and improves the responsiveness of human ...

This study shows a carbohydrate-restricted diet boosts β-cell function in type 2 diabetes, offering a sustainable approach to manage the disease effectively.

This discovery could lead to new therapeutic approaches that not only strengthen beta cell function but also enable a causal treatment for diabetes.

Enhancement in beta-cell function was correlated with an increase in the expression levels of the GLP-1 receptor as well as intracellular insulin – both transcript and protein levels were increased.

Study finds long-term adolescent intermittent fasting could impair the maturation and function of beta cells.

“At the time of diagnosis, approximately 50% of beta-cell function is already compromised. Many of these cells die through apoptosis and cannot be recovered,” said Luciano Giacaglia, MD, PhD ...
