Insulin resistance has a molecular fingerprint, and scientists have just cracked it. In a groundbreaking study, researchers from the University of Copenhagen found that each person’s body responds to ...

Insulin resistance is concomitant with type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and other features of the metabolic syndrome. Because insulin resistance is associated with cardiovascular disease, both ...

(SALT LAKE CITY) - University of Utah researchers have found that the structure of an insulin molecule produced by predatory cone snails may be an improvement over current fast-acting therapeutic ...

The discovery of insulin has saved the lives of millions of people with diabetes worldwide, but little is known about the first step of insulin synthesis. Researchers at the University of Michigan ...

An insulin that switches itself on and off in response to blood glucose levels has proven successful in lowering the risk of dangerously low glucose levels, or hypos, in animals. According to ...

Type 2 diabetes has long been framed as a story of calories, weight and willpower, but a growing body of research is shifting ...

Insulin resistance precedes and predicts the onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), a chronic disease that causes high morbidity and mortality worldwide. In affected people, insulin is unable to ...

So-called 'smart' insulin took a step nearer to becoming a reality with a new study from Denmark, the United Kingdom, and the Czech Republic. Researchers reported in Nature that animal tests with an ...

A new nanomedicine formulation method that uses the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) as a scaffold rather than a separate matrix is a big breakthrough for biopharmaceutical manufacturers, says ...

In a struggle that probably sounds familiar to dieters everywhere, the less a Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) worm eats, the more slowly it loses fat. Now, scientists have discovered why: a small ...
