To keep up, the stomach lining has remarkably high regenerative rates, continuously replacing cells and repairing damage as it occurs. This cycle, while essential, activates pathways linked to tumor ...

Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and is estimated to affect 9.5 million people worldwide. A potential new ...

When the stomach gets injured, the large, enzyme-secreting cells in its lining, called chief cells, can quickly reprogram themselves to become small, proliferative cells to repair the damaged tissue.

Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and estimated to affect 9.5 million people worldwide. Low insulin levels allow ...

Scientists report in Nature using pluripotent stem cells to generate human stomach tissues in a petri dish that produce acid and digestive enzymes. Publishing their findings online Jan. 4, researchers ...

Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and estimated to affect 9.5 million people worldwide. Low insulin levels allow ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions took a closer look at how the gastrointestinal tissue repairs itself. They reveal in the Proceedings of the National Academy of ...

In a proof of concept that may reshape the treatment landscape for insulin-dependent diabetes, scientists have demonstrated that human stomach cells can be reprogrammed to secrete insulin—potentially ...

Bryan Johnson, known for spending millions to slow ageing, says he has autoimmune gastritis, a rare disease that causes the ...

At right is normal stomach lining. At left is an area of unresolved regeneration lacking key stomach cells in an Arid1a-deficient preclinical model. Few areas of the body face more daily stress and ...
