INS and diabetes mellitus: Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition that affects pancreatic cells, reducing or impairing insulin production, whereas type 2 diabetes is caused by impairment of pancreatic beta cells, limiting the individual’s capacity to utilize insulin [3], which is the most frequent kind of diabetes, representing 90 to 95 percent of all cases, characterized by insulin resistance and inadequate compensatory insulin production due to pancreatic islet β-cell failure [4,5].
