    Sammanfattning : Diabetes or diabetes mellitus which is the correct medical term is a medical condition were the affected person lack the ability to regulate his or her blood glucose levels. This inability is directly due to the fact that the insulin producing cells, residing in the pancreas, can’t meet the body’s demand for insulin. LÄS MER

  3. 23. On macrophage contributions to tissue homeostasis : New insights on pancreas development and healing of ischemic injury
