Exploiting Nature's Weapons in the Fight Against Diabetes
Scientists at the University of Ulster are harnessing molecules produced naturally in the body to tackle one of the world's major health problems - diabetes. Their novel approach involves bioengineering gut peptides - molecules produced in the human intestine and released in response to feeding - to prolong their duration of action and,... view more...

Pitt study finds molecular link between insulin resistance and inflammation
An exploration of the molecular links between insulin resistance and inflammation may have revealed a novel target for diabetes treatment, say scientists at the John G. Rangos Sr. Research Center, Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC. view more (2009-08-27)
Rheumatoid arthritis is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease
The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) for people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been found to be comparable to the risk of CVD in people with type 2 diabetes. view more (2008-06-16)
People with type 2 diabetes improved muscular strength
Physical therapist-directed exercise counseling combined with fitness center-based exercise training can improve muscular strength and exercise capacity in people with type 2 diabetes, with outcomes similar to those of supervised exercise, according to a randomized clinical trial published in the September issue of Physical Therapy, the scientific... view more...

New research could help women facing high risk of stillbirth
The risk of stillbirth is particularly high for women with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes who suffer four times as many stillbirths as non-diabetic women. view more (2006-09-06)
Kaiser Permanente study finds diabetes doubling before motherhood
Diabetes before motherhood more than doubled in six years among teenage and adult women. view more (2008-04-28)
Researchers open door to potential treatments for type 2 diabetes
Researchers funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA) have identified an unsuspected role of a protein named SHP-1 that could constitute a new therapeutic path against Type 2 Diabetes. view more (2006-05-30)
Class of medications may offer alternative option for treating type 2 diabetes
A review of previous studies indicates that use of a class of medications known as "incretin-based therapy", which act via certain pathways that affect glucose metabolism may provide modest effectiveness and favorable weight change outcomes for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and may represent an alternative to other hypoglycemic... view more...

Losing weight soon after type 2 diabetes diagnosis doubles positive outcomes
People who lose weight soon after a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes have better control of their blood pressure and blood sugar, and are more likely to maintain that control even if they regain their weight, according to a Kaiser Permanente study published online in Diabetes Care, the American Diabetes Association journal. view more (2008-08-12)
Researchers continue to find genes for type 1 diabetes
Genetics researchers have identified two novel gene locations that raise the risk of type 1 diabetes. As they continue to reveal pieces of the complicated genetic puzzle for this disease, the researchers expect to improve predictive tests and devise preventive strategies. view more (2008-10-15)
Eight new genes linked to diabetes; the understanding of a financial and health monster
Eight genes, normally associated with normal pancreatic functions, are linked with susceptibility to diabetes Type 2 reports a team of investigators in the last issue of the PLoS Biology Journal. In'™s Barroso and colleagues at the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom studied 71 genes on more than 2000 individuals, trying to correlate... view more... (2003-11-28)
Public event highlights lifesaving risk assessment test for Type 2 diabetes
The vital role that screening tests can play in the early identification and treatment of Type 2 diabetes has been highlighted at a public event in Oxford run by DiagnOx, the organisation that aims to increase the commercialisation of UK diagnostics research and BIVDA (the British In-Vitro Diagnostics Association). The audience at the event... view more... (2004-03-11)
Overweight Hispanic children at significant risk for pre-diabetes, according to new USC study
A study by researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) found that overweight Hispanic children are at significant risk for pre-diabetes, a condition marked by higher than normal blood glucose levels that are not yet high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes. view more (2008-08-13)
Baylor researchers develop 'bubble' technique for potential treatment of Type I diabetes
Researchers at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas and the Baylor Research Institute have developed a novel technique to deliver insulin genes to the pancreas, the organ that produces the body's insulin. view more (2006-05-22)
Growing diabetes epidemic: Patient/physician disconnect on disease management
Limited understanding of disease progression and frustration with disease management contribute to the clinical challenge of meeting the rising type 2 diabetes epidemic in America. view more (2006-06-01)
Drugs targeted at muscle cells can be of use in the treatment of diabetes patients with insulin resistance
Type 2 diabetes is a clinical disease characterised by disruption to the metabolism of glucose and lipids as well as to the production of and physiological reactions to insulin. These disruptions are partly due to a reduced absorption of glucose in the cells that form the body's fat and muscle tissue. Now scientists at Karolinska Institutet have... view more... (2005-04-18)
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)
Apelin to rescue diabetics
Sugar is naturally present in the blood in the form of glucose and is stored in the liver or adipose tissue (fat) thanks to the action of insulin. Glucose is stored or directly used to ensure satisfactory function of the heart, brain and so on according to the body's demands. view more (2008-11-05)
UC Davis researchers discover novel pathway to increased inflammation in diabetes patients
Researchers at UC Davis Health System have discovered a novel pathway that results in increased inflammation of blood vessels in patients with type 1 diabetes. view more (2007-11-28)
Cognitive problems associated with diabetes duration and severity
Individuals with mild cognitive impairment appear more likely to have earlier onset, longer duration and greater severity of diabetes, according to a report in the August issue of Archives of Neurology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. view more (2008-08-12)
