Advances in Diabetes Research and Management

This book discusses the latest research in pathophysiology, diagnosis, screening of Diabetes and its management. The book presents novel technologies for the early diagnosis and highlights the molecular mechanisms of microvascular and macrovascular complications of Diabetes 2 Mellitus. It reviews the molecular mechanisms involved in developing Diabetic complications, including metabolic and immunological abnormalities that affect several organs. The book covers the applications of nanotechnology in diagnostics, monitoring, and Diabetes treatment. It reviews the development of novel glucose measurement and insulin delivery strategies for diabetes management, examines the point-of-care (POC) diagnostics for enhancing glucose measuring sensitivity and temporal response, and discusses a closed-loop system that continuously monitors blood glucose and releases insulin in a controlled way and self-regulated fashion. Importantly, it reviews the potential of stem cell therapy in Diabetes 2 Mellitus and molecular mechanisms that relate gut microbiota to the onset of insulin resistance and Diabetes. As such, this book is a valuable source for students, researchers, and practitioners working in glucose metabolism, Diabetes, and human health.
