An engineered protein turns off the kind of immune cells most likely to damage tissue as part of type-1 diabetes, hepatitis, ...

Normally, insulin binds its receptor on the surface of neurons, then promptly undergoes endocytosis to end up in early endosomes. This process triggers glycolysis in the neurons. Much of the insulin ...

“When we discovered that insulin cells have a cell surface expressed receptor for vitamin A, we thought it was important to find out why and what the purpose is of a cell surface receptor ...

When secreted by cells in the gastrointestinal tract, GLP-1 acts through its receptor on pancreatic islet cells to stimulate insulin secretion and inhibit glucagon secretion.
