Glycine, a non-essential amino acid derived from serine, plays an increasingly recognized role in metabolic regulation.

Chronic exposure to hyperglycemia can lead to cellular dysfunction that may become irreversible over time, a process that is termed glucose toxicity. Our perspective about glucose toxicity as it ...

The gut–islets axis connects nutrient sensing in the intestine with insulin secretion from the pancreas and plays an essential role in glucose regulation. GLP-1 released by intestinal L cells can ...

Between 2016 and 2022, the researchers measured insulin secretion in response to carbohydrates (glucose), proteins (amino acids), and fats (fatty acids) from pancreatic islet cells taken from 140 ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Porosome Therapeutics, Inc. (Porosome Therapeutics) has announced a new and distinctive therapy for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) targeting the insulin ...

A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 5, on May 1, 2025, titled "Oxytocin modulates insulin and GLP-1 secretion in pancreatic islets." In this study, scientists from ...

Short-term IF boosts glucose homeostasis, but prolonged fasting in adolescence may impair β cell maturation—potentially linking chronic IF to type 1 diabetes risk. Study: Chronic intermittent fasting ...
