Diabetes and Endocrinology

Nanotechnology is expanding its significance in diabetes in the on-going decade. It has proven beneficial in treating diabetes mellitus by not only improving the catalytic properties of electrodes but also by increasing the available surface area of the sensor-receptor complex. This can transform insulin delivery through enhanced oral formulations and islet encapsulation. A portion of the uses of nanotechnology in treating diabetes mellitus are fake pancreas, rather than pancreas transplantation utilization of counterfeit beta cells, for oral conveyance of insulin utilization of nanospheres as biodegradable polymeric bearers and so on. At present insulin for Type 1 diabetes is delivered by injection, as orally administered insulin has limited effectiveness.
