Weight lifting can help overweight teens reduce risk of diabetes
Teens at risk of developing diabetes can prevent or delay its onset through strength training exercise, a University of Southern California study has found. view more (2006-07-26)
UCSD researchers discover inflammation, not obesity, cause of insulin resistance
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have discovered that inflammation provoked by immune cells called macrophages leads to insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. view more (2007-11-07)
Mutations in the insulin gene can cause neonatal diabetes
Mutations in the insulin gene can cause permanent neonatal diabetes, an unusual form of diabetes that affects very young children and results in lifelong dependence on insulin injections. view more (2007-09-11)
New Cell Transplantation Technique Restores Insulin Production in Diabetics
Researchers are using a new cell transplantation technique to restore the cells that produce insulin in patients with type 1 diabetes. The method is minimally invasive, with few complications. view more (2005-11-30)
Reduced insulin in the brain triggers Alzheimer's degeneration
By depleting insulin and its related proteins in the brain, researchers at Rhode Island Hospital and Brown Medical School have replicated the progression of Alzheimer's disease - including plaque deposits, neurofibrillary tangles, impaired cognitive functioning, cell loss and overall brain deterioration - in an experimental animal model. view more (2006-03-23)
Researchers create first model for retina receptors
A team of scientists at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center has created the first genetic research model for a microscopic part of the eye that when missing causes blindness. The research appears in a recent issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry. view more (2008-10-01)
Neuroscientists Show Insulin Receptor Signaling Regulates Structure and Function of Brain Circuits
A team of neuroscientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) has demonstrated for the first time in living animals that insulin receptors in the brain can initiate signaling that regulates both the structure and function of neural circuits. view more (2008-06-19)
Reducing inflammation plays key role in type 1 diabetes therapy
Researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) have found that a triple combination therapy consisting of both tolerance-inducing and anti-inflammatory properties is successful in abolishing adverse autoimmunity against insulin-producing cells in a mouse model of Type 1 diabetes. view more (2007-08-01)
Scientists discover leptin can also aid type 1 diabetics
Terminally ill rodents with type 1 diabetes have been restored to full health with a single injection of a substance other than insulin by scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center. view more (2008-08-26)
Metabolic syndrome -- don't blame the belly fat
Abdominal fat, the spare tire that many of us carry, has long been implicated as a primary suspect in causing the metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that includes the most dangerous heart attack risk factors: prediabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, and changes in cholesterol. view more (2007-07-17)
HIV-1 protease inhibitor induced oxidative stress in pancreatic B-cells: thymoquinone protection
Researchers at the Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, Louisiana have discovered that the HIV-1 protease inhibitors (PIs), such as nelfinavir included in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 patients, induce deleterious effects on insulin secretion mediated through the oxidative stress... view more...

Chemistry & Industry - 1 October Issue
NEWS Unexplained miscarriages could be linked to insulin resistance (page 5) Insulin resistance could explain why some women suffer from repeated miscarriage. The association of insulin resistance with repeated pregnancy loss in diabetics and women with polycystic ovary syndrome are well known, but this is the first time its effect on pregnancy... view more...

Research shows skeleton to be endocrine organ
Bones are typically thought of as calcified, inert structures, but researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have now identified a surprising and critically important novel function of the skeleton. view more (2007-08-10)
Found: A gene that may play a role in type 1 diabetes
Scientists at Stanford University have identified a gene that may play a role in the development of type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the body's insulin-producing cells. view more (2009-08-11)
Research team responds to concerns about international insulin drug trial
Accumulating safety data from the large, international ORIGIN trial have been reviewed by its independent data monitoring committee, who have concluded that there is no cause for concern. view more (2009-08-11)
Prevalence of disordered eating behaviors in diabetics probed
Children with diabetes are at an increased risk for developing eating disorders and researchers want to know if it's their disease or treatment that's to blame. view more (2008-12-11)
Scientists find gene in obese mice that increases type 2 diabetes
In a painstaking set of experiments in overweight mice, scientists from the University of Wisconsin-Madison have discovered a gene that appears to play an important role in the onset of type 2 diabetes. view more (2006-05-08)
Research shows aerobic exercise helps maintain muscle in elderly
Why do older people tend to lose muscle mass and grow frail? One important factor identified by medical science is the reduced ability of the elderly to respond to the muscle-building stimulus of the hormone insulin. view more (2007-05-31)
What is the relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma and type 2 diabetes mellitus?
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. view more (2009-06-12)
MGH initiates phase I diabetes trial
Scientists at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have initiated a phase 1 clinical trial to reverse type 1 diabetes. view more (2008-03-14)
