New and More Efficient Method to Make Insulin Cheaper Posted: Sunday, June 06, 2010

Researchers from the Helmholtz-Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig, Germany, have now developed a new method to cheaply produce insulin for the treatment of diabetes.

Discovery Cuts Heart Risk for Diabetes Patients Using Insulin Posted: Sunday, May 23, 2010

Scientists from Yorkshire, U.K., have uncovered a new approach that could protect diabetes patients from heart damage linked to long-term treatment with insulin. The finding could change the way patients are treated.

Insulin Protects Against Artery Damage Posted: Sunday, May 16, 2010

Long suspected of worsening artery damage in patients with diabetes, insulin instead protects blood vessels, a new study by Joslin Diabetes Center scientists indicates.

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.

Why Physicians Do Not Initiate Insulin Earlier Posted: Sunday, April 18, 2010
