Functional subpopulations of β-cells emerge to control pulsative insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets of mice through calcium oscillations.

Increased insulin secretion The protein IGFBP7 is regulated by a gene with the same name. When this gene was knocked out in beta cells from people with type 2 diabetes, the researchers found an ...

A recent study reveals that age plays a significant role in the outcomes of intermittent fasting. Researchers from Technical ...

JMU scientists studied insulin-producing cells in fruit flies, finding that secretion is influenced by gut hormones, ...

Olive oil bioactives, including MUFAs, polyphenols, and triterpenoids, modulate gene expression linked to insulin sensitivity ...

They have also discovered that the secretion of each of these hormones depends on specific factors. For example, beta cells secrete insulin in response to increased blood glucose levels ...

Oct. 17, 2024 — Researchers have developed strategies to identify regulators of intestinal hormone secretion ... the pancreatic beta cells to detect glucose and secrete insulin to maintain ...

an autoimmune reaction destroys individuals’ insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, resulting in little to no insulin secretion. Meanwhile, in type 2 diabetes, the main issue is insulin ...
