Researchers recently offered the sharpest-yet picture of how core biochemical pathways in skeletal muscle cells and fat cells are altered in people who suffer from insulin resistance -- a primary ...

In diabetes, the body doesn't make enough or doesn't respond to a hormone called insulin, which is produced by beta cells in the pancreas. In type 1 diabetes, those beta cells are lost, and people ...

Insulin resistance (IR) is one of the earliest predictors of type 2 diabetes. However, diagnosis of IR is limited. High fat fed mouse models provide key insights into IR. We hypothesized that early ...

Insulin is a hormone that's produced by a specific set of cells in the pancreas, and it functions to regulate blood sugar levels. Serious disease happens when there's a problem with insulin, whether ...

For decades, researchers sought to replace beta-cells, the insulin-producing pancreatic cells, that are lost in diabetes. Ultimately, such an ability would give us a way to combat diabetes in a truly ...

Calcium (Ca2+) drives many cellular functions, though the way it controls quality of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum ...
