Type 1 Diabetes Reversed with New Beta Cell Implant (Animal Model)
Type 1 Diabetes Reversed with New Beta Cell Implant (Animal Model) Researchers have successfully created a novel biomaterial that can be seeded with insulin-producing beta cells. Implantation of the beta cell-seeded biomaterial reversed diabetes in a mouse model by effectively… Read More ›
Testosterone eliminated MS symptoms – Animal model
Testosterone eliminated MS symptoms – Animal model By accident researchers discovered that a guardian molecule cytokine IL-33 that was produced due to testosterone eliminated MS symptoms in mice. Male-specific IL-33 expression regulates sex-dimorphic EAE susceptibility. Proceedings of the National Academy… Read More ›
