According to the FDA, the medication quickly helps to lower mealtime blood sugar spikes to improve control of blood sugar in ...

If insulin can’t get out of blood vessels, it can’t act in its target tissues. “Endothelial cells are full of insulin ...

It’s known as negative feedback because an increase in hormone decreases the substance being controlled, e.g. an increase in insulin decreases blood glucose concentration.

The glucoregulatory role of insulin for adult subjects is undisputed. However, less is known about its secretion and actions in the neonatal period, either in healthy subjects, or in those at risk ...

Researchers investigate the underlying mechanisms of endothelial insulin resistance involved in obesity-associated diabetes.

However, steroids can also affect how the body reacts to insulin, another hormone that controls the sugar levels in the blood. As a result, people with or at risk of diabetes need to speak with a ...

Within islets, beta cells secrete insulin, and alpha cells secrete glucagon. Scientists have identified three additional cell types in islets, including cells that secrete the hormones ...

The hormone adrenomedullin disrupts insulin signaling in blood vessel cells, contributing to systemic insulin resistance in obesity-associated type 2 diabetes, according to a new study.
