In preclinical studies, a team of researchers report new findings on a therapeutic combination that regenerated human insulin-producing beta cells, providing a possible new treatment for diabetes. In ...

Researchers at Mount Sinai Health System in New York and City of Hope in Los Angeles have developed a therapy that promises to not only improve symptoms of diabetes but also has the potential to ...

Scientists at City of Hope have uncovered a gene called SMOC1 that plays a surprising role in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) by converting pancreatic cells that normally produce insulin into ...

A new study from the University of California, Davis, has uncovered how cells in the pancreas work together to stop blood sugar from dropping too low. This discovery could lead to better treatments ...

People living with diabetes might have a new hope. Scientists have tested a new drug therapy in diabetic mice, and found that it boosted insulin-producing cells by 700% over three months, effectively ...
