Blu ray LED add new features can accurately control blood sugar

The use of drugs to regulate insulin in diabetic patients, is a common way to control blood sugar, but often because the drug is too fast to make blood sugar instantly too low, or may cause damage to the brain or heart. Scholars have studied the use of blue light LED drugs in the human body, so that they can be turned on or off state, you can use a more precise way to regulate the number of insulin, reduce the harm to the human body. The study was published in the journal Nature communications (Nature Communications).

This study is the common development of Imperial College London and the University of Munich in Germany, they changed a drug in the use of "sulfonyl urea (Sulfonylurea), so it can change the shape of the blue LED after irradiation, that is to say, the drug JB253 of diabetic patients to eat this kind of modified and not immediately place (above left), when he took the blue LED to the skin well (pictured above on), will change the shape of the drug (pictured right), and start the medicine to stimulate the body to release insulin, when the LED lights turn off after the drug returned to the original shape, will stop function (above the lower).

Imperial College medical department physician David Hodson said, in addition to the number of switch through regulation of insulin, which can also reduce the number of complications, because it allows the drug in a certain part of the body began to play a role, such as the pancreas (above left). He also stressed that the study is still in its early stages, and it will take some time to really develop the available therapies.
