Summary

Welcome to the July 2025 episode of DiabetesBio—the American Diabetes Association's podcast for its flagship research publication, Diabetes . In this episode of DiabetesBio, Drs. Kirk Habegger, Darleen Sandoval, and Kevin Williams discuss the latest and greatest content in the July 2025 issue of Diabetes. 6:50 In the first interview segment, our hosts discuss July's Paper of the Month, titled "Novel Cell-to-Cell Communications Between Macrophages and Fibroblasts Regulate Obesity-Induced Adipose Tissue Fibrosis." They're joined by corresponding authors Dr. Takayoshi Suganami , professor in the Department of Molecular Medicine and Metabolism, the Research Institute of Environmental Medicine at Nagoya University in Nagoya, Japan, and Miyako Tanaka , a lecturer in the same department. This article is available for free at doi.org/10.2337/db24-0762 . 22:25 Our hosts speak with Richard M. Watanabe , PhD, Professor of Population and Public Health Sciences in the Department of Population and Public Health Sciences at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine. His paper, "Genetic Variations in GCKR and PNPLA3 Regulate Metabolic Balance Across the Liver," is available at doi.org/10.2337/db24-0923 . 46:50 In this month's edition of "Sweet Talk," our hosts are joined by Barbara B. Kahn , MD, recipient of the American Diabetes Association's Albert Renold Distinguished Career Award, to discuss her work uncovering key molecular mechanisms contributing to type two diabetes and the role of adipose tissue in regulating systemic insulin sensitivity. Dr. Kahn is the George Richards Minot Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Vice Chair for Research Strategy at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.
