MIAMI, FL (October 27, 2023) – A groundbreaking technique has been established which has allowed scientists from the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine to culture live sections of the pancreas for nearly […]| DRIF
Regenerating the Pancreas: DRI Scientists Demonstrate Diabetes Reversal in Preclinical Model Using Small Peptide – In major diabetes research news just published in Nature Communications, scientists at the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) at the University of Miami have shown that a small peptide, called THR-123, can trigger regeneration of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, restoring normal blood sugar levels in pre-clinical experimental models. This regenerative effect, achiev...| DRIF
