Cancers' Sweet Tooth May Be Weakness
The pedal-to-the-metal signals driving the growth of several types of cancer cells lead to a common switch governing the use of glucose, researchers at Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University have discovered. view more (2009-11-19)
Scientists find molecular trigger that helps prevent aging and disease
Researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine set out to address a question that has been challenging scientists for years: How do dietary restriction-and the reverse, overconsumption-produce protective effects against aging and disease? view more (2009-11-19)
Researchers discover mechanism of insulin production that can lead to better treatment for diabetes
How a specific gene within the pancreas affects secretion of insulin has been discovered by researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, in collaboration with Japanese and American universities. view more (2009-11-13)
Sweet as can be: how E. coli gets ahead
Scientists at the University of York have discovered how certain bacteria such as Escherichia coli have evolved to capture rare sugars from their environment giving them an evolutionary advantage in naturally competitive environments like the human gut. view more (2009-11-12)
Should children undergo surgery without a long period of fasting after feeding?
Blood glucose levels in a lot of patients fed normal liquid food (NLF) and a high calorie diet (HCD) were high. view more (2009-10-29)
Toward bold new anti-cancer medicines
Bold new strategies in the battle against cancer may turn forms of the disease that presently are incurable into manageable conditions that can be controlled for long periods of time. view more (2009-10-29)
CHEO RI study uses sophisticated genetic engineering to improve insulin-producing beta cells
One of the biggest mysteries about diabetes is why specialized cells in the pancreas stop secreting insulin, which the body needs in order to store glucose from food. view more (2009-10-08)
Self monitoring of blood glucose levels helps patients with diabetes
Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) enables those with diabetes to modify their behavior, adjust their medicine and understand their disease to better manage it. view more (2009-10-02)
Molecular imaging holds promise for early intervention in common uterine cancer
A promising new molecular imaging technique may provide physicians and patients with a noninvasive way to learn more information about a type of cancer of the uterus lining called "endometrial carcinoma"-one of the most common malignant female tumors. view more (2009-10-01)
Self-monitoring of blood glucose
Diabetes patients should always control their own blood sugar values if this leads to improvements in their treatment. view more (2009-09-29)
Is inhaled insulin delivery still a possibility? Why has it been a commercial failure?
The commercial failure of Exubera® (Pfizer, New York, NY), the first inhaled insulin product to come to market, led other companies such as Eli Lilly-Alkermes to halt studies of similar drug delivery in development intended to compete for a share of the lucrative diabetes market. view more (2009-09-24)
Postmenopausal women benefit from endurance training as much as younger women
Marilyn Graham was 56 when she signed up for a grueling hour of cycling each morning for 12 weeks, occasionally decked out in a mask, a heart monitor and a bag of intravenous fluid and subjected to needle pricks to obtain blood samples. view more (2009-09-21)
Routine screening for gestational diabetes: IQWiG finds indication of positive effect
Pregnant women who develop marked increased blood sugar levels during pregnancy can reduce the risk of certain birth complications if they receive treatment. view more (2009-09-11)
Team reveals molecular mechanism underlying a form of diabetes
By investigating a rare and severe form of diabetes in children, University of Iowa researchers have discovered a new molecular mechanism that regulates specialized pancreatic cells and insulin secretion. view more (2009-09-09)
JDRF-funded studies show regular CGM use increases diabetes control for all age groups
The latest data from groundbreaking human clinical trials of the effectiveness of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) show that the primary determinant of improvements in achieving better diabetes control is regular use of monitors - six days per week or more - rather than the age of patients, and that benefits continue well past the time when... view more...

Scientists discover new genetic variation that contributes to diabetes
Scientists have identified a genetic variation in people with type 2 diabetes that affects how the body's muscle cells respond to the hormone insulin, in a new study published today in Nature Genetics. The researchers, from Imperial College London and other international institutions, say the findings highlight a new target for scientists... view more... (2009-09-08)
Diabetes advance: Researchers find gene that causes resistance to insulin
A breakthrough by an international team of researchers in Canada, France, the UK and Denmark has uncovered a new gene that could lead to better treatment of type 2 diabetes, as well as a better understanding of how this widespread disease develops. view more (2009-09-08)
Changes to DNA linked to diabetes
Genes that regulate the energy consumption of cells have a different structure and expression in type II diabetics than they do in healthy people, according to a new study from the Swedish medical university Karolinska Institutet published in Cell Metabolism. view more (2009-09-02)
Exercise alone shown to improve insulin sensitivity in obese sedentary adolescents
A moderate aerobic exercise program, without weight loss, can improve insulin sensitivity in both lean and obese sedentary adolescents. view more (2009-09-01)
Childhood obesity: The increasing vascular drama
Obesity is one of the most important health problems in industrialized countries irrespective of socio-economic status, age, sex or ethnicity. view more (2009-08-31)
