In a small cell therapy trial, 10 out of 12 people with type 1 diabetes no longer needed supplemental insulin, even a year after treatment.

The beta cells of the pancreas don’t need the assistance of other pancreatic cells to produce insulin, according to new research. The findings are a potential game-changer for diabetics and ...

Insulin is an essential hormone that regulates blood sugar levels in the body. It’s produced naturally in the pancreas. If people don’t make enough insulin or the body doesn’t use insulin ...

The pancreas plays a role in diabetes because it produces insulin and helps regulate blood sugar levels. We look into the links between diabetes and the pancreas.

A new study has found a link between high blood insulin levels, frequently seen in people with obesity and type 2 diabetes, and pancreatic cancer. The researchers say their findings may lead to ...

This is when your pancreas doesn't make any or enough insulin, or your body can't use the insulin it does make very well. The glucose can't get into your cells, so it stays in the blood.

The pancreas is a gland organ in the abdomen. It forms part of the digestive system. It produces insulin and secretes fluid that helps break down food. Problems with the pancreas can lead to ...
