A recent breakthrough study has revealed that a small population of brain cells could be the decisive factor in reversing type 2 diabetes, challenging decades-old beliefs that link the condition solely to obesity and insulin resistance. Conducted by researchers at the University of Washington and published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, the study found that silencing certain hyperactive neurons in diabetic mice led to a dramatic and sustained normalization of blood sugar levels—regardless of any changes in body weight or eating habits. This pioneering research could stand to transform diabetes management not only for patients internationally but also for millions of Thais living with this chronic disease (Neuroscience News).
