Diabetes Drug Shows Promise as an Anticancer Immunotherapeutic Agent
Treatment with the anti-diabetes drug sitagliptin of some types of cancer in a mouse model was found to increase the infiltration of T lymphocytes into tumors and, in combination with existing immunotherapies, eradicate the tumor. More...30 Jun 2015

Potential Diabetes Drug Works by Relieving Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress
A recent paper linked stress affecting the endoplasmic reticulum to the development of several chronic diseases including diabetes, retinitis pigmentosa, cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. More...30 Jun 2015

Hypoxia Factors Contribute to Maintenance of Regulatory T-cell Function
A team of cell biologists has identified a molecular pathway that maintains the stability and function of regulatory T-cells, which are components of the immune system that suppress immune responses of other cells and act as an important “self-check” built into the immune system to prevent excessive reactions.
