Ultrasound-Induced Insulin Release as a Potential Novel Treatmentfor Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract
Therapeutic ultrasound presents a potential novel treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus that utilizes the non-invasive application of ultrasound energy to treat secretory defects in the earlier stages of the disease. Our previous studies have shown that ultrasound is capable of stimulating insulin release from pancreatic beta cells, safely and effectively. This study aims to both examine the calcium-dependent mechanisms of ultrasound-mediated …
