Type of cell found in pancreatic islets.
1However, its association with insulin resistance and beta cell function remains controversial.
2Hence, our results implicate both CTL and cytokines in beta cell destruction.
3Insulin resistance and beta cell function were assessed with the homeostasis model.
4ATT also extended islet viability in mice after streptozotocin-induced beta cell toxicity.
5Objective: Study the role of hyperglycemia-induced beta cell loss on grafted islet destruction.
6Insulin resistance and beta cell function were assessed by using the homeostasis model.
7Background: Exercise has a beta cell preserving effect in patients with type 2 diabetes.
8New therapeutic strategies to improve beta cell function are therefore believed to be beneficial.
9The secondary outcome of the study is rate of loss of beta cell function.
10However, its mechanism in which way with MGO induced beta cell death remains unknown.
11Five of 13 tested were positive for beta cell autoantibodies.
12The pancreatic beta cell is the major source of circulating insulin in adult mammals.
13In addition, we sought to determine whether the drug would affect beta cell function.
14Glucocorticoid doses, insulin sensitivity and pancreatic beta cell function were compared among these groups.
15Specific immunoreactivity was found in the membranes of beta cell-secretory granules and cytoplasmic membranes.
16Ad-hTGFbeta enhanced differentiation and proliferation in the beta cell line or islets without causing apoptosis.
