The FDA has made some modest efforts, but it needs an internal organization that understands and would be an aggressive ...

Bacterial cells have been genetically modified to produce human insulin and other substances ... into susceptible crops using genetic engineering. Not only can this protect the crop, it can ...

A groundbreaking study has pinpointed the hormone that plays a role in type 2 diabetes among overweight individuals, paving ...

Scientists have discovered that the peptide hormone adrenomedullin plays a pivotal role in obesity-related type 2 diabetes, ...

Adrenomedullin disrupts insulin signaling in blood vessels, leading to systemic insulin resistance in obesity-associated type 2 diabetes.

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

If insulin can’t get out of blood vessels, it can’t act in its target tissues. “Endothelial cells are full of insulin ...

People with type 1 diabetes require continuous insulin treatment and must regularly measure their glucose levels. With ...

More than 1,000 genes may serve as possible treatment targets for individuals with kidney disease, according to a new study, ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...
