1. Endocrinology, Diabetes and Bone Disease

Research

DEPARTMENT OF MEDICINE

The Endocrine Division uses technology, research, and novel gene therapies to enable physician-scientists in the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Bone Disease to identify new treatments.

Gaucher Disease is a genetic disorder that has an incidence of up to one in 850 live births in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.  Mount Sinai and The Yale School of Medicine have generated a mouse model that recapitulates all features of Gaucher Disease, including severe osteoporosis. These studies should form the basis of new therapies for this crippling disease.

Andrew Stewart, MD, Irene and Dr. Arthur M. Fishberg Professor of Medicine, leads the Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism Institute (DOMI) along with investigators with expertise in diabetes, islet cell biology, and islet autoimmunity.

And an artificial pancreas system is one of the most promising breakthroughs in Type 1 diabetes treatments in decades. As the first-ever comprehensive artificial pancreas clinical trial in New York State, Mount Sinai is collaborating with the University of Virginia School of Medicine (UVA) on this potentially historic project. This system has shown promising data in earlier studies leading to less hyperglycemia and reduced frequency of hypoglycemia compared to standard medical management.
