New Discovery May Revolutionize the Treatment of Diabetes

A recent study conducted by researchers from the German Center for Diabetes Research, the Technical University of Munich and the Helmholtz Zentrum München has found a new and druggable insulin inhibitory receptor called inceptor. The study is a remarkable discovery for research on diabetes as the scientific community celebrates 50 years since the discovery of the insulin receptor and 100 years since the discovery of insulin. The researchers found that blocking inceptor function led to increased sensitization of the insulin signaling pathway. This, they said, may allow the regeneration and protection of beta cells for diabetes remission. Diabetes mellitus is…
