Pancreatic beta cells create insulin, a hormone that regulates your blood glucose levels.

Taking 5,000 IU of vitamin D per day may improve insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function for those with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, according to findings published in the European Journal ...

Patients with type 2 diabetes on a carbohydrate-restricted diet showed recovery in beta-cell function, researchers reported in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. “Beta-cell ...

To investigate whether dedifferentiated beta cells can be targeted pharmacologically to restore beta cell function, the researchers used streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice.

A history of the development of the incomplete beta function is outlined as well as of some of the analytical and approximation techniques used for its numerical evaluation.

According to new research, adults with type 2 diabetes on a low-carbohydrate diet may see benefits to their beta-cell function allowing them to better manage the disease and possibly discontinue ...

If beta cells die prematurely, the endocrine cells normally responsible for producing other hormones, such as glucagon or somatostatin, can start producing insulin.
