Findings suggest targeting neuro-immune pathway could lead to strategies for managing diabetes, obesity or some types of ...
A study published in Science by the Champalimaud Foundation reveals a surprising new role for the immune system. During ...
A new study has uncovered a critical role for the enzyme Glucose-6-phosphatase 2 (G6PC2) in regulating blood sugar levels.
During fasting or exercise, immune cells (red) migrate to the pancreas and stimulate glucagon-producing cells (orange) to regulate blood sugar, with cell nuclei shown in blue.
New study shows that the gene G6PC2 plays an important role in regulating glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels.
When we think about the immune system, we usually associate it with fighting infections. However, a study published in Science by the Champalimaud ...
Life without a pancreas involves treatments to replace organ function. Learn how different surgical techniques affect overall ...
Objective—Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) exerts beneficial antidiabetic actions via effects on pancreatic β- and α-cells. Previous studies have focused on the improvements in β-cell function ...
Cancer researchers found that patients on GLP-1s had significant risk reductions for 10 of 13 obesity-associated cancers.
Risk for pancreatitis was not elevated among users of tirzepatide relative to placebo, despite the presence of elevated pancreatic enzymes.
