Meat may dominate the protein conversation, but plant-based options like tempeh could be your best bet for improving insulin sensitivity.

Examining messenger RNAs involved in the production of insulin in fruit flies, they found that a chemical tag on the mRNA is crucial to translating the insulin mRNA into the protein insulin.

The protein, called TRAP-alpha, is widely shared across worms, flies and mammals, including humans. In a study published in the journal Science Advances, the team showed that TRAP-alpha is ...

In 2019, they found a protein—S100A9—that could do something remarkable: it improved blood sugar, ketone levels, and lipid profiles in diabetic mice, all without insulin.

Inside our cells, ribosomes—the tireless "protein factories" of life—have just shown off a new skill they haven't used in ...

Some people produce more insulin in response to proteins and fats than carbs, new research has found. Suggesting that insulin production is more individualized than first believed, the findings ...

Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type J (PTPRJ) is a negative regulator of insulin signaling in neuronal cells, according to a new study, and appears to have a role in nervous system ...

Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death.

However, the researchers were surprised to see that their insulin response to proteins remained largely intact. “This really bolsters the case that protein-rich diets could have therapeutic benefits ...
