  2. How the iLet Bionic Pancreas Could Revolutionize Type 1 Diabetes

    Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the pancreas produces little to no insulin, the hormone that the body relies on to allow sugar into cells to use as energy. Insulin lowers blood sugar levels; without it, sugar builds up in the bloodstream, leading to high glucose levels.

    2.1 Type 1 diabetes, at its core, is a disease of the pancreas Diabetes is diagnosed when people can no longer control their blood glucose. In the case of T1D, this is caused by insulin insufficiency due to catastrophic loss of (functional and actual) pancreatic ß-cells, associated with an autoimmune process which targets the islets of ...

  13. 100 YEARS OF INSULIN: Pancreas pathology in type 1 diabetes ...

    The assessment of key features of pancreas pathology across various disease stages allows driving parallels with clinical disease stages. The main pathological abnormalities observed in the pancreas with type 1 diabetes are beta-cell loss and insulitis; more recently, hyperexpression of HLA class I and class II molecules have been reproduced ...

  14. The Artificial Pancreas and Type 1 Diabetes

    Autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells leaves people living with type 1 diabetes dependent on insulin replacement for life ().The use of conventional insulin pump therapy and continuous glucose monitoring improves glycemic outcomes and diabetes-related psychosocial outcomes compared with traditional multiple daily insulin injections and capillary glucose monitoring ().

  15. The pancreas in human type 1 diabetes

    Type 1 diabetes. The insulin deficiency associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is thought to be due to an autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β-cells; this is the result of an (still) ill-defined combination of genetic susceptibilities alongside environmental factors [59, 65].Despite the availability of exogenous insulin therapy, T1D patients remain at risk for a number of chronic ...

  16. How Can an Artificial Pancreas Help People with Type 1 Diabetes?

    Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, also called artificial pancreas, help people with type 1 diabetes automate tasks such as monitoring their blood glucose and taking insulin. AID systems improve glycemic outcomes and quality of life for many people, but their high cost and other barriers prevent more widespread use.

    Abstract. Pancreas transplant, both whole pancreas and islet cell, is a known therapeutic option for treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus. Islet cell transplant began as an experimental therapy but is emerging to be quite beneficial due to less surgical risk and fewer complications. It is also considered a promising option in pediatric patients.
