A fungal infection has been shown to trigger a fruit fly's own immune system to destroy brain cells, leading to signs of ...

This important study identifies a new key factor in orchestrating the process of glial wrapping of axons in Drosophila wandering larvae. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is convincing ...

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

JMU scientists studied insulin-producing cells in fruit flies, finding that secretion is influenced by gut hormones, ...

The hormone insulin plays a central role in the metabolism of many living organisms. When food is plentiful, insulin promotes ...

How does the body regulate the activity of insulin-producing cells in order to react quickly to changing conditions? Researchers at the University of Würzburg have investigated this question.

Studies have shown that micronutrients have a key role in the development of diabetes, by affecting how glucose is metabolised and insulin pathways. However, this study was aimed to resolve ...

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist ...

Additionally, studies have shown that micronutrients play a crucial role in the development of diabetes, as they impact glucose metabolism and insulin pathways. Also Read| What is Fetus in Fetu?

As a result, the subgroups were assessed together for the effects on the insulin pathway. Following exercise, higher peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak), peripheral insulin sensitivity, and fat ...

Insulin allows cells to absorb and use glucose. In people with insulin resistance, the cells are unable to use insulin effectively. Insulin resistance occurs when cells in the body do not respond ...
