New research can help overcome challenges in diabetes research
Scientists focused on finding better treatments or cures for types 1 or 2 diabetes are painfully aware of current limitations, including having to use animal tissue in studies that often don't translate to human trials.
Extended culture of human pancreatic slices as a model to study regeneration of beta cells
Scientists from the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine have developed a method allowing for the long-term culture of "pancreatic slices" to study the regeneration of the human pancreas in real time.
Study explores time trends in pregnancy-related outcomes among women with type 1 diabetes
Researchers from the Joslin Diabetes Center investigated time trends in pregnancy-related outcomes among women with type 1 diabetes between 2004 and 2017, and found that the percentage of mothers with excess weight gain during pregnancy as well as the use of insulin pumps and CGMs increased significantly, while the prevalence of nephropathy fell dramatically to zero.
Study shows generic drug does not slow kidney disease
Historically, half or more of people with type 1 diabetes develop kidney disease, which frequently progresses to kidney failure, requiring dialysis treatment or kidney transplantation for survival, according to a study in Diabetes Care.
Promising treatment does not guard against complication in type 1 diabetes
Historically, half or more of people with type 1 diabetes develop kidney disease, which frequently progresses to kidney failure requiring hemodialysis or a kidney transplant for survival.
Research shows females use anti-inflammatory T cells to maintain their blood pressure
In the face of a multipronged front to drive blood pressure up, including a high-salt diet, females are better able to keep their pressure down by increasing levels of a T cell that selectively dials back inflammation, scientists say.
COVID-19 could trigger diabetes in healthy people
The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) causes severe illness in people with underlying health conditions, such as heart disease, hypertension, lung illness, and diabetes. Now, scientists warn that viral infection may trigger the development of diabetes in healthy people.
Anti-TNF drug preserves beta-cell function in newly diagnosed pediatric patients with Type 1 diabetes
In research led by a University at Buffalo pediatric endocrinologist, a drug called golimumab showed that it preserved beta-cell function in children and young adults with newly diagnosed Type 1 diabetes, according to findings from a Phase 2 study.
Research team generates comprehensive developmental map of human T-cells
Chintan Parekh, MD, of The Saban Research Institute of Children's Hospital Los Angeles, has led a team of investigators that generated a comprehensive roadmap for how T-cells develop in the human thymus.
Use of continuous glucose monitoring reduces hypoglycemia in seniors with T1D
Results from a six-month, multi-site clinical trial called the Wireless Innovation for Seniors with Diabetes Mellitus Study Group have been published by the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Millimeter-thick cell-laden hydrogel fiber helps control blood glucose in diabetic mice

High-resolution 3D model reveals a link between Alzheimer's and diabetes
Pathological protein clumps are characteristic of a series of diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and type 2 diabetes.
A teen’s death from COVID
It started as a normal day. Dawn Guest, 54, got up and headed out to her job as a nurse around 5 a.m. She heard her 16-year-old son, Andre, stirring in his room, but he had always been an earlier riser, even when his school was shut for COVID-19.
New AI algorithm could help people with type 1 diabetes better manage their glucose levels
Researchers and physicians at Oregon Health & Science University, using artificial intelligence and automated monitoring, have designed a method to help people with type 1 diabetes better manage their glucose levels.
COVID-19 may trigger the onset of diabetes in healthy people
Emerging evidence suggests that COVID-19 may actually trigger the onset of diabetes in healthy people and also cause severe complications of pre-existing diabetes.
Genetic risk score is effective in diagnosing type 1 diabetes in Indians
A new way of using genetics to diagnose diabetes could pave the way for better diagnosis and treatment in Indians, new research has concluded.
Treatment with vitamin A analog improves visual function in diabetic mice
