The stimulant yohimbine may improve insulin secretion in type 2 diabetes patients who have a genetic risk for the disease, researchers found.
In a small study of 50 type 2 diabetes patients, those with a mutation in the ADRA2A gene had improved insulin secretion 30 minutes after a glucose load compared with those without the mutation, Anders Rosengren, MD, PhD, of Lund University in Sweden, and colleagues reported in Science Translational Medicine.
