Scientists use scanning tunneling microscopy to understand how a material's electronic or magnetic properties relate to its ...

As central tissue of glucose homeostasis, islet has been an important focus of diabetes research. Phosphorylation plays pivotal roles in islet function, especially in islet glucose-stimulated insulin ...

Geobacter sulfurreducens is a dissimilatory metal-reducing bacterium capable of forming thick electron-conducting biofilms on solid electrodes. Here we employ for the first time comparative proteomics ...

Photon induced near-field electron microscopy has been recently introduced to investigate the dynamics of near-field distributions in nanostructures, with femtosecond time and angstrom spatial ...

The research team found that fibrillar collagen I , a form of collagen that becomes more abundant in diabetic pancreatic tissue, creates a sticky surface that attracts amylin. Instead of floating ...

Insulin secretion rate (ISR) is not directly measurable in man but it can be reconstructed from C-peptide (CP) concentration measurements by solving an input estimation problem by deconvolution. The ...
