New Pancreas Biomarkers Detected Early in Type 1 Diabetes Development

A long-term study identified measurable changes in pancreatic digestive enzymes months or even a year before Type 1 diabetes appears in at-risk children. These findings could eventually help researchers better understand how the disease develops.

How Insulin Doses May Affect Heart Rate Rhythm in Type 1 Diabetes

A new study finds that higher insulin doses are linked to changes in heart rate variability during sleep, independent of blood sugar levels. Researchers say this relationship warrants attention when adjusting insulin therapy.

How Exercise and a Bone-Building Drug May Work Together in Type 1 Diabetes

A new study in mice suggests that combining teriparatide—a medication that strengthens bones—with regular exercise may improve muscle structure in type 1 diabetes. Researchers are exploring whether this combination could help protect muscle health.

A New Tool for Understanding Type 1 Diabetes: Safer Lab Models of Beta Cell Damage

Researchers have developed a more precise way to study how pancreatic beta cells are damaged in Type 1 diabetes, using light-activated molecules instead of toxic chemicals. This advance could help scientists better understand the disease without relying on older, less specific methods.

New Research Reveals Type 1 Diabetes in Adults May Not Be One Single Disease

A large study from Germany identified distinct subtypes of adult-onset Type 1 diabetes based on genetic, immune, and metabolic differences. Understanding these subtypes could help researchers better predict disease progression and tailor care.

New Research Reveals How Type 1 Diabetes Affects the Placenta During Pregnancy

Scientists have identified distinct changes in placental cells circulating in the blood of pregnant people with Type 1 diabetes. Understanding these changes may help explain why pregnancies with T1D can carry higher health risks for both mother and baby.
