Between 2016 and 2022, the researchers measured insulin secretion in response to carbohydrates (glucose), proteins (amino acids), and fats (fatty acids) from pancreatic islet cells taken from 140 ...

How does the body regulate the activity of insulin-producing cells in order to react quickly to changing conditions? Researchers have investigated this question. The hormone insulin plays a central ...

“Although the detailed mechanism for the stimulation of intra-islet GLP-1 secretion remains to be elucidated and further studies are required, as far as we know, our present study is the first to ...

In a recent study published in the journal NPJ Metabolic Health and Disease, researchers hypothesize that the degradation of endogenously secreted insulin (as opposed to the commonly believed insulin ...

Glycine, a non-essential amino acid derived from serine, plays an increasingly recognized role in metabolic regulation. Epidemiological studies consistently show that reduced circulating glycine ...
