NIH-funded research project studying insulin signaling loss in pancreas compartments to understand diabetic exocrine pancreatopathy, running from 2024 to 2028 with a $662,173 award.
Description
The project involves studying the impact of insulin on exocrine tissue, microvasculature, and neural coordination in the pancreas. The research aims to elucidate mechanisms underlying diabetic exocrine pancreatopathy. The project focuses on understanding the deterioration of insulin signaling during the progression of type 1 diabetes.
