Development by UCLA-led research team works to keep blood sugar at normal levels UCLA bioengineers and their colleagues have developed a new type of insulin that could help prevent hypoglyce... Read more
Living with Type 1 diabetes requires constant monitoring of blood sugar levels and injecting insulin daily. Now scientists are reporting in the ACS journal Industrial & Engineering Chemi... Read more
A joint effort between diabetes doctors and biomedical engineers could revolutionize how people with diabetes keep their blood sugar levels in check Painful insulin injections could become a... Read more
Investigators at the University of Cincinnati (UC) have found a therapy that reverses new onset Type 1 diabetes in mouse models Investigators at the University of Cincinnati (UC) have found... Read more
A wearable, experimental device passed a real-world test, constantly monitoring blood sugar and automatically giving insulin or a sugar-boosting drug as needed, doctors say. Scientists have... Read more
Gladstone scientists reprogram skin cells into insulin-producing pancreas cells A cure for type 1 diabetes has long eluded even the top experts. Not because they do not know what must be don... Read more
Since insulin’s crucial discovery nearly a century ago, countless diabetes patients have had to inject themselves with the life-saving medicine. Now scientists are reporting a new developmen... Read more
“This is hopefully a big step toward giving diabetics a more painless method of maintaining healthy blood sugar levels,” A new nanotechnology-based technique for regulating blood sugar in di... Read more
THOUSANDS of diabetics could be effectively “cured” thanks to a major breakthrough by Scottish scientists. Patients could now have an islet cell transplant to prevent life-threatening compli... Read more
Researchers have developed a drug delivery technique for diabetes treatment in which a sponge-like material surrounds an insulin core. The sponge expands and contracts in response to blood s... Read more
Animal-to-human transplant of insulin-producing cells without use of drugs is ultimate goal In the first step toward animal-to-human transplants of insulin-producing cells for people with ty... Read more
The new technique involves engineering blood stem cells into insulin-secreting cells Scientists have made a stem cell breakthrough that could make it possible to treat diabetics with an annu... Read more
In a promising development for diabetes treatment, researchers have developed a network of nanoscale particles that can be injected into the body and release insulin when blood-sugar levels... Read more
