[Heliyon] Scientists investigated the effect of insulin-producing cells derived from adipose tissue MSCs on diabetic-induced impairments as the abnormalities of testicular tissues, oxidative stress of testes, and defects of spermatogenesis.

[Reviews in Endocrine & Metabolic Disorders] The authors summarize some of the knowledge regarding the presence of adipose tissue in particular tissues, describing the composition of its adipogenic precursors, and the interactions responsible for the development of organ pathologies.

[Frontiers in Physiology] The author considers the impact of metabolic disorders, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, on the regulation of [Ca2+]i in skeletal muscle.

[Cell Reports] Investigators analyzed over two million cells from 16 pancreata obtained from donors with type 2 diabetes and 13 pancreata from age-similar non-diabetic controls.

[Endocrine Journal] The toxic heavy metal cadmium has been proven to cause pancreatic dysfunction and lead to the development of DM. Researchers investigated the effects of cadmium on the pancreatic β cell line MIN6 and explored the underlying mechanisms.

[Bioengineered] The effect of astragalus polysaccharide on dysfunctional insulin cells was investigated to clarify whether astragalus polysaccharide could be a novel drug for type 2 diabetes mellitus treatment.
