Got Sugar? Glucose Affects Our Ability to Resist Temptation
New research from a lab at Florida State University reveals that self-control takes fuel-- literally. When we exercise it, resisting temptations to misbehave, our fuel tank is depleted, making subsequent efforts at self-control more difficult. view more (2007-12-04)
Children's Hospital studying drug with the potential to prevent/delay onset of type 1 diabetes
Researchers at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC are participating in an international clinical trial currently underway to study the effectiveness of oral insulin in preventing or delaying the onset of type 1 diabetes in people at risk for the disease. view more (2007-11-12)

Anti-malarial drug may reduce risk of diabetes for patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Preliminary research suggests that use of the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine may help reduce the risk of the development of diabetes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis view more (2007-07-11)
Insulin resistance in early teens may predict diabetes, heart disease for adults
The body's decreased response to insulin beginning as early as age 13 may mean increased cardiovascular disease risk by age 19, according to research reported in Hypertension: Journal of the American Heart Association. view more (2006-08-22)
Limiting fructose may boost weight loss, researcher reports
One of the reasons people on low-carbohydrate diets may lose weight is that they reduce their intake of fructose, a type of sugar that can be made into body fat quickly, according to a researcher at UT Southwestern Medical Center. view more (2008-07-25)
Diabetics' heart attack risk can be reduced, research finds

Flavonoids in Orange Juice Make It a Healthy Drink, Despite the Sugar
Orange juice, despite its high caloric load of sugars, appears to be a healthy food for diabetics due to its mother lode of flavonoids, a study by endocrinologists at the University at Buffalo has shown. view more (2007-07-18)
Study further expands understanding of leptin's role in brain neurocircuitry
In investigating the complex neurocircuitry behind weight gain and glucose control, scientists have known that the hormone leptin plays a key role in the process. view more (2009-06-03)
Scientists explain how insulin secreting cells maintain their glucose sensitivity
Scientists at the leading Swedish medical university Karolinska Institutet have now disclosed the mystery how the insulin-secreting cells maintain an appropriate number of ATP sensing ion channel proteins on their surface. view more (2007-09-06)
Food for thought -- regulating energy supply to the brain during fasting
If the current financial climate has taught us anything, it's that a system where over-borrowing goes unchecked eventually ends in disaster. It turns out this rule applies as much to our bodies as it does to economics. Instead of cash, our body deals in energy borrowed from muscle and given to the brain. view more (2008-10-06)
Exercise could be the heart's fountain of youth
Absence may make the heart grow fonder, but endurance exercise seems to make it younger. According to a study conducted at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, older people who did endurance exercise training for about a year ended up with metabolically much younger hearts. view more (2008-07-24)
Increased sensitivity to nerve signals keeps diabetes at bay
Nerve signals relayed directly to the pancreas after eating a meal play a critical role in normal blood sugar control. view more (2006-06-07)
Losartan prevents life-threatening insulin resistance in burn injuries
Researchers have found a way to prevent insulin resistance in burn-injured rats, a finding that, while still quite preliminary, could eventually save burn victims' lives and speed their recovery. view more (2006-04-06)
UCLA researches heart disease-glucose connection
Men with cardiovascular disease may be at considerably increased risk for death even when their blood sugar level remains in the "normal" range. view more (2006-02-15)
Carnitine supplements reverse glucose intolerance in animals
Supplementing obese rats with the nutrient carnitine helps the animals to clear the extra sugar in their blood, something they had trouble doing on their own, researchers at Duke University Medical Center report. view more (2009-08-13)
Researchers discover that SLC2A9 is a high-capacity urate transporter in humans
An international team of researchers led by Professors Mark Caulfield and Patricia Munroe, from the William Harvey Research Institute at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry with Chris Cheeseman at the University of Alberta in Canada and Kelle Moley at the University of Washington in USA, have shown that the SLC2A9 gene, which... view more...

Researchers engineer pancreatic cell transplants to evade immune response
In a finding that could significantly influence the way type 1 diabetes is treated, researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University have developed a technique for transplanting insulin-producing pancreatic cells that causes only a minimal immune response in recipients. view more (2009-01-05)
Disruption of blood sugar levels after heart surgery is common
A study reveals today that inadequate blood sugar control in patients having heart surgery is associated with a four fold increase in post-surgery death and major complications - and that the blood sugar disturbances occur in patients with and without diabetes. view more (2008-07-08)
Diabetic hearts make unhealthy switch to high-fat diet
The high-fat "diet" that diabetic heart muscle consumes helps make cardiovascular disease the most common killer of diabetic patients, according to a study done at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. view more (2006-02-06)
