Monash research cautions against use of anti-oxidants
An international team of scientists, led by Monash University researchers, has found that anti-oxidants commonly touted for their health-promoting benefits, could contribute to the early onset of Type 2 diabetes. view more (2009-10-07)
New study supports major change in diet treatment for diabetes
A low-fat vegan diet treats type 2 diabetes more effectively than a standard diabetes diet and may be more effective than single-agent therapy with oral diabetes drugs. view more (2006-08-08)
Stem cell infusion and hyperbaric oxygen treatment improve islet function in diabetes
A study to determine if patients with type 2 diabetes can benefit from a combination of autologous (patient self-donated) stem cell infusions (ASC) and hyperbaric (above the normal air pressure of ) oxygen treatment (HBO) before and after ASC has found "significant benefits" in terms of "improvements in glycemic control" along... view more...

Diabetes drug may reduce cardiovascular risks
A drug commonly used to increase the body's sensitivity to insulin may slow the progression of cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes. view more (2006-11-14)
Major international collaboration offers new clues to genetics of type 2 diabetes
An international collaboration of scientists from Europe and the US has identified six new genes which play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes, extending the total number of genes implicated in common forms of the disease to sixteen. view more (2008-03-31)
Specific location of the TRAF1/C5 gene associated with multiple autoimmune diseases
The TRAF1/C5 locus on chromosome 9 has been revealed to play a role in multiple autoimmune diseases including type 1 diabetes and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). view more (2008-06-16)
Immune responses spread from one protein to another in type 1 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the immune system inappropriately attacking the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin, the hormone that controls blood sugar levels. view more (2006-12-04)
Moores UCSD Cancer Center study links vitamin D, type 1 diabetes
Sun exposure and vitamin D levels may play a strong role in risk of type 1 diabetes in children, according to new findings by researchers at the Moores Cancer Center at University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine. view more (2008-06-05)
Glucose levels trigger compensation for type 2 diabetics
Many individuals with type 2 diabetes are diabetic because the cells of their body no longer respond to the hormone insulin, which is crucial for lowering blood sugar levels (blood glucose levels). view more (2007-01-03)
Compounds that trigger beta cell replication identified by JDRF funded researchers
Researchers at the Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation (GNF) have identified a set of compounds that can trigger the proliferation of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, using sophisticated high-throughput screening techniques. view more (2009-02-26)
Alcohol not likely to protect against type II diabetes
Alcohol is unlikely to protect drinkers from the risk of developing adult onset (type II) diabetes, concludes research in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. Alcohol seems to confer only a slight advantage in moderate drinkers, the research shows. To date, the effects of light to moderate alcohol consumption on the risk of developing... view more...

100M pounds a year spent on self-monitoring in diabetes that may increase anxiety and depression
The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK is spending £100 million a year to help people with non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes monitor their own blood sugar levels, but the process is more likely to make them depressed than provide any long-term health benefits, according to a series of articles published ahead of print on bmj.com today. view more (2008-04-18)
New chair will help meet key challenges in diabetes
A new, world-leading centre of excellence for diabetes research and treatment, currently under development at Oxford University, is to be further enhanced by the creation of a new chair in diabetic medicine. The Robert Turner Professorship in Diabetic Medicine, created to commemorate one of the leading lights of type 2 diabetes research, has been... view more... (2000-11-27)
Some patients may not need insulin for long-term control of type 2 diabetes
Some patients with type 2 diabetes can control their disease for years yet avoid insulin injections by using multiple classes of oral diabetic medications, a new study found. view more (2008-06-16)
ESC Congress 2004: First long-term comparative study of an ARB and an ACE inhibitor in patient with type 2 diabetes, hypertension and early nephropathy
Results from the first long-term comparative study of an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) and an ACE inhibitor in patients with type 2 diabetes, hypertension and early nephropathy were presented today.1 The five year DETAIL (Diabetics Exposed to Telmisartan And enalaprIL) study showed that telmisartan provides comparable renoprotective effects... view more...

Drug could improve pregnancy outcomes in wider range of women with insulin resistance
Women who are obese, have type 2 diabetes or a family history of type 2 diabetes could one day have more successful pregnancies because of a study at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. view more (2007-09-07)
Type 1 diabetes triggered by 'lazy' regulatory T-cells: McGill researchers
A research team led by Dr. Ciriaco A. Piccirillo of McGill University's Department of Microbiology and Immunology has discovered that in some individuals, the specialized immunoregulatory T-cells that regulate the body's autoimmune reactions may lose their effectiveness and become "lazy" over time, leading to the onset of type 1 diabetes. view more (2008-01-16)
Statins Should Be Routine Therapy For People With Diabetes (p 2000, 2005)
The risk of cardiovascular disease for people with diabetes could be substantially reduced with the routine use of statins, conclude authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Statins (a class of cholesterol-lowering drugs) have proven efficacy in reducing cardiovascular risk, even among people with normal cholesterol concentrations;... view more... (2003-06-11)
Type 2 diabetics' acidity heightens risk for kidney stones
