To clarify certain matters relating to the first type of diabetes patient must know what(C-peptide) and most patients know what is insulin. When you talk with the patient and tell him that the cells of "beta" (in the pancreas that secrete the insulin) has crashed and caused the symptoms first type of diabetes, it often ask, but you crashed cells "beta" completely?, How do I know that the cells "beta" all crashed?, and if there are some cells still remain so how can I keep them?. Answering these questions is "challenge" facing scientists who specialize in the field of diabetes. Where they seek with all their knowledge and learn to try to determine how we can find out the amount of cells "beta" remaining at or after the onset of diabetes?
And how we can prevent crashes remaining cells? Is there a way to find out? People prone to Type I diabetes? If the knowledge is there a way to prevent Type I diabetes?
All of these questions is an area of research and can not find a week passes but there are dozens of research published in this regard and hope exist in access to a way to reduce the incidence of type I diabetes and prevention (but did not succeed prevention methods so far in humans, where it has succeeded in laboratory experiments on rats). There are several research to try to compensate for the cells of "beta" technology such as "reprogramming cells," or use "stem cells" .. Etc. .. But these methods are still research also developed.
So cells "beta" cells are important when people with type I diabetes. Unfortunately they gradually shatter that begins with the appearance of symptoms of Type I diabetes. But there are many researches that show that there are quite a number of patients with type I and that they showed symptoms of diabetes, but cells "beta" did not crash once. The question is in what way or analysis that helps me to know you still have cells "beta" or not?
Is there really is not a very accurate indicator to see the remainder of the cells "beta" but the indicator, which is used in some medical research on diabetes is the amount of (C-peptide) blood.
Why do not we measure the amount of blood insulin instead of (C-peptide) blood? Cells "beta" secrete insulin but subjected to cracking when it passed the "liver" and before the arrival of the circulation of the blood and through which we measured insulin.And therefore it will give us the wrong impression about the amount of cells "beta."
Since the LCD Bbtaad (C-peptide) is secreted by cells beta ratio of 1: 1 with insulin (ie, the same rate) but not subjected to cracking in the "liver" it relatively better than measuring insulin to see the rest of the cells "beta."
Short amount of LCD Bbtaad (C-peptide) blood is an indicator "approximate" the rest of the cells "Beta".
As we talked repeatedly, educating with diabetes something very important, and where there are a lot of articles that Will eat in this page and that talk about cells "beta" through which we will have to mention (C-peptide) blood, I think it's important diabetic to be on the amount of health education to know both of the hormone insulin, and (C-peptide) blood.
