Type 1 diabetes research: poised for progress
Since type 1 diabetes was first proposed to be an autoimmune disease in the 1970s, the search has been on to identify the key pathogenic determinants and immune cell types involved. The Immunology of Diabetes Society Congress in October, 2018 (London, UK) featured a debate questioning the Achilles' heel of type 1 diabetes: is it regulatory T-cell dysfunction, misdirected cytotoxic T cells, autoimmune B cells, type 1 interferon, or a viral infection? The audience—comprising many of the world's leading experts on the disease—could not agree. After years of intensive research, including dozens of carefully designed clinical trials, how is it possible that the mystery underlying type 1 diabetes…

Type 1 diabetes is a discouraging disease. Despite the availability of synthetic insulin and increasingly sophisticated monitoring technology, it’s still a condition that requires incessant vigilance...
A Frightening New Reason to Worry About Air Pollution
It’s fairly well known that a bad diet, a lack of exercise, and genetics can all contribute to type 2 diabetes. But a new global study points to an additional, surprising culprit: the air pollution emitted by cars and trucks.
How a Low-Carb Diet Might Aid People With Type 1 Diabetes
Most diabetes experts do not recommend low-carb diets for people with Type 1 diabetes, especially children. Some worry that restricting carbs can lead to dangerously low blood sugar levels, a condition known as hypoglycemia, and potentially stunt a child’s growth. But a new study published in the journal Pediatrics on Monday suggests otherwise.
The Startling Link Between Sugar and Alzheimer's
A high-carb diet, and the attendant high blood sugar, are associated with cognitive decline.
There may be five types of diabetes
Diabetes is currently said to exist in essentially two variations: Type 1 and Type 2. But a group of medical scientists believe that division is overly simplistic. Writing in a study published by The Lancet: Diabetes & Endocrinology this month, a team of international researchers propose that there are actually five types of diabetes, and that the distinctions between them could mean that some people are taking diabetes medications they don’t need, while others aren’t being treated sufficiently at time of diagnosis.
