Researchers in Sweden discovered a protective molecule that could transform treatment for diabetic foot ulcers, wounds that heal slowly and often lead to amputation. The finding offers new hope for millions living with diabetes worldwide.
Scientists discovered that a common diabetes medication protects aging kidneys by keeping blood vessels healthy and reducing inflammation. The breakthrough came from studying tiny fish that age in just months, letting researchers witness decades of organ aging in weeks.
A groundbreaking insulin inhaler could soon spare millions of Type 1 diabetes patients from daily injections. The medical breakthrough offers new hope for easier diabetes management.
After decades of research, personalized medicine has arrived with treatments that once seemed impossible. New diabetes drugs, RSV vaccines, and cancer screening advances are transforming patient care right now.
A breakthrough medication called retatrutide helped people with type 2 diabetes lose an average of nearly 37 pounds while controlling their blood sugar in just 40 weeks. The drug represents a new era in treating diabetes and obesity, giving doctors more tools to help patients live healthier lives.
Researchers in Hong Kong discovered that combining advanced imaging with a diabetes drug slashes heart death rates for high-risk patients. The breakthrough offers new hope for millions living with both diabetes and heart disease.
Scientists are testing breakthrough treatments that could eliminate type 1 diabetes symptoms within the next few years. Late-stage trials of beta cell replacement therapy are showing real promise for millions living with the disease.
Researchers discovered that blocking a single protein prevented diabetic eye damage in mice before it could start. The finding could help protect vision in millions of people with diabetes before symptoms ever appear.
A cheap diabetes drug that's been around for 100 years is helping people with type 1 diabetes use significantly less insulin each day. Scientists are now racing to understand why it works so they can help even more patients.
Chinese scientists used stem cell therapy to completely reverse type 2 diabetes in a patient for the first time ever. The breakthrough treatment eliminated the patient's need for insulin injections by regrowing healthy pancreatic cells.
Australia has approved Tzield, the first therapy in over 100 years that can delay the onset of type 1 diabetes by an average of two years. The breakthrough gives families precious time before the daily burden of insulin therapy begins.
Researchers discovered genetic variants in 1 in 10 people explain why popular diabetes medications like Ozempic don't work for everyone. This breakthrough could help doctors predict treatment success and develop better alternatives.
A 1920s tuberculosis vaccine is helping people with autoimmune diabetes reduce their insulin use in a breakthrough trial. The discovery adds to growing evidence that certain vaccines protect against diseases far beyond their original targets.
A century after discovering insulin, Canada is pushing for federal funding to build a national research network that could accelerate curative therapies for type 1 diabetes and create hundreds of high-skilled jobs. The investment could move breakthrough treatments from lab to patients years sooner.
People with type 1 diabetes slashed their daily insulin use by nearly a third simply by switching to a low-fat vegan diet. The breakthrough could save patients hundreds of dollars annually while improving their overall health.
Scientists discovered why mountain living reduces diabetes risk: red blood cells act like sugar sponges in low-oxygen environments. The breakthrough could lead to new treatments for millions managing blood sugar.
Scientists at the University of Chicago have developed a breakthrough nanoparticle system that delivers protective mRNA to insulin-producing cells, potentially preventing type 1 diabetes before it starts. The treatment worked in both mouse and human cells, offering hope for the 1.6 million Americans living with this autoimmune disease.
University of Chicago scientists developed a breakthrough mRNA therapy that protects insulin-producing cells from immune attacks, potentially preventing type 1 diabetes before it starts. Early tests in animals show the treatment successfully shields the cells that the disease destroys.
Researchers at CU Anschutz discovered what triggers the autoimmune attack in type 1 diabetes and are now developing ways to stop it. The breakthrough could lead to therapies that delay or prevent the disease affecting 9.5 million people worldwide.
Scientists created a breakthrough mRNA treatment that shields insulin-producing cells from immune attacks, potentially preventing type 1 diabetes before it starts. Early tests in mice show the nanoparticle therapy successfully reached target cells and delayed disease progression.
