On macOS Tahoe 26, Apple is replacing the old Macintosh HD icon, which depicted an actual hard disk drive, with a new SSD-looking icon.

Borrowing a cancer cell’s disguise, scientists shielded insulin-producing cells from attack by the immune system, a ...

Dear Reader: Type 1 diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease. The immune system mistakenly targets and destroys beta cells in the pancreas. These cells are mainly responsible for producing insulin ...

Recent advances in glucose management are reshaping our understanding of cognitive decline and dementia prevention. Energy imbalance and glucose dysregulation are now recognized as central to ...

AI-powered ChemPerturb-seq reveals sex-specific cocktail improving islet transplant survival, offering a new treatment for type 1 diabetes.

Engineering vascularized stem cell islets SC-islet cell organoids – mini-organs that mirror the insulin producing cell clusters outside the body – are widely used to study diabetes and other ...

Islets are cell clusters in the pancreas that house several different types of hormone-secreting cells, including insulin-producing beta cells.

Editas Medicine reports successful gene editing levels in stem cells, supporting potential treatment for sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia.

A growing body of work suggests that cell metabolism — the chemical reactions that provide energy and building materials — plays a vital, overlooked role in the first steps of life.

Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York have discovered a novel approach to protecting insulin-producing beta cells from the damaging effects of glucolipotoxicity ...

Defective beta cells resemble those of type 1 diabetes patients The researchers used the latest single-cell sequencing to uncover the cause of the beta cell impairment.
