Gel Technology Utilized in New Artificial Pancreas Posted: Wednesday, September 29, 2010

A researcher has developed an artificial pancreas that she says could revolutionize the treatment of diabetes.

Significant Type 2 Diabetes Breakthrough Posted: Tuesday, September 21, 2010

Amyloid could "directly poison" pancreas cells. Shedding light on how a malfunctioning protein helps trigger Type 2 diabetes could one day offer the chance to halt the damage, say scientists.

New Surgical Procedure for Type 2 Diabetes Shows a 95% Remission Posted: Sunday, August 29, 2010

A Brazilian surgeon has developed a new procedure usinging surgical intervention through "Ileal Transposition" (or small intestinal switch) that can effectively control Type 2 diabetes.

Nanoparticle Vaccine Cures Type 1 in Mice Posted: Sunday, August 29, 2010

Using a sophisticated nanotechnology-based "vaccine," researchers were able to successfully cure mice with Type 1 diabetes and slow the onset of the disease in mice at risk for the disease.

Insulin Peptide Points to a Solution for Type 1 Diabetes Posted: Sunday, June 27, 2010

Researchers at National Jewish Health and the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus have identified the precise protein fragment, or peptide, that can trigger diabetes in mice. The finding, supports an emerging theory about the origins of autoimmunity, and may lead to new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in humans.

Pig Pancreas Works for Type 1's Posted: Sunday, May 16, 2010

Early trial finds technique is safe, improves blood sugar control.

Bariatric Surgery Can Just Mask Diabetes Posted: Tuesday, May 04, 2010

Bariatric surgery may appear to cure diabetes based on measurements such as fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1c, but postprandial glucose can still be elevated say researchers.

How Genetic Mutations May Cause Type 1 Diabetes Posted: Tuesday, May 04, 2010

Scientists have provided an answer to the 40-year-old mystery of how certain genetic mutations lead to Type 1 diabetes. This new molecular understanding could lead to novel therapies for Type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.

Experimental Artificial Pancreas Succeeds with Type 1 Diabetes Patients Posted: Tuesday, April 27, 2010

In the first clinical trial of a system using two hormones, an artificial pancreas delivered insulin and glucagon in a way that closely mimics the body's control of blood sugar and maintained near-normal levels of glucose in a small group of Type 1 diabetes patients without them developing hypoglycemia.

Cells in Pancreas Can Spontaneously Change into Insulin-Producing Cells Posted: Sunday, April 18, 2010

Alpha cells in the pancreas, which do not produce insulin, can convert into insulin-producing beta cells, advancing the prospect of regenerating beta cells as a cure for Type 1 diabetes.
