Is less sugar better for our brain?

"Our research findings suggest that lactose in particular can accelerate the neurodegeneration of our brain"

25-Sep-2024 - Elevated blood sugar levels can have a direct impact on our brain. If the blood vessels change due to sugar-related deposits, individual areas of the brain can be undersupplied, which can trigger strokes as well as dementia. Scientists at the Department of Neurology at the University Hospital ...

Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Tissue-Integrated Sensitive Glucose Nanosenor Using Inactive Glucose Oxidase Enzyme

09-Jan-2024 - Monitoring glucose levels is one of the key elements in health monitoring. A research team has now developed a battery-independent fluorescent nanosensor based on single-wall carbon nanotubes and an inactive form of the enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx). Because the enzyme is not in its active form, ...

How internal clocks control fat metabolism

Modern lifestyle can disrupt "cycle of lipids"

13-Sep-2023 - In the fruit fly Drosophila, circadian clocks also control fat metabolism. This is shown in a new study by a research team at the University of Würzburg. The findings could also be relevant for humans. Much is known about how modern human lifestyles contribute to triggering metabolic disorders ...

DNA analysis reveals risk of post-meal insulin resistance

Targeted intervention may be possible

14-Jun-2023 - Scientists from the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH), along with colleagues from the United Kingdom, have found clues as to how we maintain constant blood sugar levels after we have eaten. Analyzing the DNA of nearly 55,000 participants from different studies, they identified ten ...

Better Blood Sugar Regulation

Insulin carrier triggered by glucose

19-Apr-2023 - Patients with type 1 diabetes live with a constant risk of hyper- or hypoglycemia. Precisely controlled insulin release could help to improve regulation of their blood sugar levels. In the journal Angewandte Chemie, a research team has now introduced a novel insulin formulation that can be ...

Adipose tissue as a culprit: How obesity leads to diabetes

Researchers surprised: a single enzyme upsets the entire sugar metabolism in a high-fat diet

11-Apr-2023 - A research team at the University of Basel has discovered that a high-fat diet alters the function of adipose tissue, thus impairing its ability to regulate blood sugar. This explains why a high-fat diet poses a significant health risk, particularly for diabetes. Diabetes is a medical condition ...

Generating power with blood sugar

When combined with artificial, insulin-​releasing beta cells, this gives rise to a system that can autonomously regulate blood sugar levels

29-Mar-2023 - A fuel cell under the skin that converts blood sugar from the body into electrical energy sounds like science fiction. Yet it works perfectly, as an ETH Zurich research team led by Martin Fussenegger, Professor of Biotechnology and Bioengineering, has shown. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not ...

Is Living in a “Food Swamp” Increasing Stroke Risk in Older Adults?

Living in “food swamps” – areas with a higher density of fast food and junk food options rather than healthy food options – may increase stroke risk among those ages 50 years-old and older

07-Feb-2023 - Adults ages 50 and older who lived near dense fast food and unhealthy food environments known as “food swamps” had a higher risk ofstrokecompared to those who lived in areas with fewer retail and fast food choices, according to preliminary research to be presented at the American Stroke ...

When and why does type 1 diabetes manifest in children?

New findings on the development of the autoimmune disease in children

18-Oct-2022 - Study provides novel insights on dynamics of blood sugar levels and autoimmunity in early childhood: When and why does type 1 diabetes manifest in children? For the first time, researchers conducted a long-term study on infants and young children with increased genetic risk of type 1 diabetes. ...
