Exposure to antibiotics during a key developmental window in infancy can stunt the growth of insulin-producing cells in the ...

Hundreds of cubes of human brain tissue help scientists to chart the energy-making capabilities of various brain regions.

Life has evolved over billions of years, adapting to the changing environment. Similarly, enzymes—proteins that speed up ...

A recent study released by researchers from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) opens the door for more effective diabetes research and treatment. The new approach leverages ...

Q: Max, our 7-year-old terrier mix, lost his energy, stopped eating and started vomiting. His veterinarian diagnosed ...

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder caused by dysfunction in the pancreas, the organ responsible for regulating blood sugar levels. Within the pancreas, islet cells secrete insulin to lower blood sugar.

A research team has successfully developed an innovative platform for diabetes treatment using bioink derived from pancreatic ...

POSTECH uses 3D printing for treating diabetes. Scientists have created an advanced 3D printing method for insulin-producing cell growth.

The researchers found that mice without a microbiome have fewer immune cells in the pancreas and worse metabolic function in adulthood.

June Round holds out a dish of microbes cultured from the gut. Specific species of microbes appear to reduce the risk of diabetes and may even help restore lost pancreatic function, her results ...

The microbiome shapes development of insulin-producing cells in infancy, leading to long-term changes in metabolism and diabetes risk, new research in mice has found. The results could ultimately help ...
