Study discovers insulin deficiency associated with Type 1 diabetes leads t
Updated : 3 years ago IST
person with Type 1 diabetes has a smaller pancreas than someone without the disease. This is unexpected because insulin-producing beta cells make up a very minor portion of the pancreas and their loss in Type 1 diabetes would not be anticipated to result in a reduction in pancreas size.

Insulin-producing beta cells may change function in diabetes: Study
Updated : 6 years, 10 months ago IST
Washington D.C [USA], May 18 (ANI): Researchers revealed that insulin-producing beta cells can change their own function in diabetes. They found that the RNA messaging system which tells proteins how to behave in cells is functioning differently in diabetes.
