…2 diabetes. While Type 2 diabetes is a well-known, leading risk factor for heart attack, stroke, and blockages in the heart’s arteries, the role of prediabetes has been less clear….
…lower blood glucose levels but also boost calorie burn, avoiding the common side effects of nausea and vomiting associated with current weight-loss and diabetes drugs. A new class of compounds…
Diabetes medications could potentially be used to limit tumor growth in pancreatic and prostate cancers. Researchers from UCLA have identified a new mechanism that delivers glucose to cancer cells, providing…
Middle-aged men who are more anxious and worried may have a higher biological risk of developing cardiometabolic diseases like heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes as they age. In…
…of cells specific to type 1 diabetes, which typically appears during childhood. “We want to understand the targets of the cells that cause diabetes,” he said. “What turns them on?…
A recent study sheds light on why glucose tolerance is lower at dinner than at breakfast for healthy individuals and why shift workers face an increased risk of diabetes. Credit:…

…could transform treatments for diabetes, transplants, and cancer. When the immune system becomes unbalanced, it can lead to serious problems, such as type 1 diabetes, other autoimmune diseases, or organ…
The study found that a high-fat diet can provoke pain sensitivity even in the absence of obesity and diabetes. Short-term high-fat diets can cause chronic pain by inducing neuronal inflammation….

A nationwide study in Sweden indicates that GLP1 agonists, such as Ozempic, could lower the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer in individuals with type 2 diabetes and chronic liver…
A new genetic study of Native Hawaiians suggests that those with a higher proportion of Polynesian ancestry face a greater risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart failure. Both…
Scientists are working on a chemical “tag” that will allow diabetes and cancer patients to manage their conditions with pills instead of needles and injections. Hate Needles and Injections? These…
Researchers have found that metformin, a commonly prescribed drug for type 2 diabetes, can extend lifespan in C. Elegans, a model organism. The drug achieves this by stimulating the production…
