Calcium-sensing receptor activation increases cell-cell adhesion and ß-cell function [PDF]

, 2012
Background/Aims: The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in pancreatic β-cells where it is thought to facilitate cell-to-cell communication and augment insulin secretion.

Loss of Beta‐Cell Identity and Function as a Mechanism of Secondary Failure of Sulfonylurea Therapy in Diabetes

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Sulfonylureas, commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D), often lose effectiveness over time when used as monotherapy; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate the mechanisms of sulfonylurea failure, glibenclamide‐releasing pellets were implanted in KK mice, a polygenic model that spontaneously develops T2D. KK mice

Diabetes management in maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD): A review and a proposed treatment algorithm

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 826-839, February 2026.
Abstract Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) is a mitochondrial disorder usually caused by the variant m.3243A>G in the MT‐TL1 gene. We have proposed that diabetes in MIDD arises from a combination of insulin resistance and impaired β‐cell function that is more likely to occur in the presence of high skeletal muscle heteroplasmy and ...

Safety and effectiveness of tirzepatide during Ramadan fasting: Real‐world evidence from patients with type 2 diabetes in Bangladesh

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 1508-1516, February 2026.
Abstract Aims Ramadan fasting poses challenges for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) due to increased risks of hypoglycemia and metabolic fluctuations. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP‐1 receptor agonist, has shown marked efficacy in glycemic control and weight reduction.

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...
