Mitochondrial defects, however, are associated with the development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes. Patients who suffer from this disorder are unable to produce enough insulin or use the insulin ...

A new blood test could help doctors detect pancreatic cancer earlier, potentially improving survival rates for one of the ...

Functional subpopulations of β-cells emerge to control pulsative insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets of mice through calcium oscillations.

Targeting mitochondrial retrograde signaling may therefore be promising in the treatment or prevention of metabolic disorders ...

The distinct population of endothelial cells that line blood vessels in the insulin-producing "islets" of the human pancreas ...

The test relies on a magnetic nanoparticle linked to fluorescent molecules to detect pancreatic cancer proteins.

An innovative organoid model mirrors the pancreas' complexity, generating all three key cell types to explore development and ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

Feb. 10, 2025 — Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion of the genomic era shows that gene loss and ...
