An innovative organoid model mirrors the pancreas' complexity, generating all three key cell types to explore development and ...

Functional subpopulations of β-cells emerge to control pulsative insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets of mice through calcium oscillations.

A recent study reveals that age plays a significant role in the outcomes of intermittent fasting. Researchers from Technical ...

While intermittent fasting is hugely popular for weight loss and other health conditions, study on Friday claimed it may be ...

A revolutionary approach to immune therapy has emerged: engineered immune cells that protect healthy tissue without ...

ETH researchers have developed a new gene switch that can be activated using a commercially available nitroglycerine patch applied to the skin. One day, researchers want to use switches of this kind ...

Mitochondria are well known as the powerhouses of the cell. These crucial, energy generating organelles even have their own little genomes... | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

People with prediabetes often develop diabetes, but many of them manage to reverse to normoglycemia. What determines these ...

Our perspective about glucose toxicity as it pertains to the pancreatic ß-cell is that the characteristic decreases in insulin synthesis and secretion are caused by decreased insulin gene expression.

Several studies have shown that insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells of patients with diabetes have abnormal mitochondria and are unable to generate energy. Yet, these studies were unable to explain ...

LMU Hospital Munich, and Helmholtz Munich found that while intermittent fasting benefits adult mice by improving insulin sensitivity, it harms beta cell development in adolescent mice, which could ...
