Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is not just a disease as it is already known, the matter is more complicated, and it is considered as an assembly of metabolic defects with end result of hyperglycemia.verapamil can decrease the expression of thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), which is recognized as an important factor in pancreatic beta cells.verapamil could enhance beta cell mass and function. Materials and Methods: 160 type 2 diabetes patients in 2 parallel groups. Results: show statistically significant difference in favour of verapamil in increasing c-peptide levels and decreasing hba1c levels. Conclusion: Verapamil could be used as a type 2 diabetes saviour by increasing beta cell mass and function.

Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is characterized by insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction. Although insulin resistance is assumed to be a main pathophysiological feature of the development of T2DM, recent studies have revealed that a deficit of functional beta-cell mass is an essential factor for the pathophysiology of T2DM. Pancreatic fat contents increase with obesity and are suggested to cause beta-cell dysfunction. Since the beta-cell dysfunction induced by obesity or progressive decline with disease duration results in a worsening glycemic control, and treatment failure, preserving beta-cell mass is an important treatment strategy for T2DM. In this mini-review, we summarize the current knowledge on beta-cell mass, beta-cell function, and pancreas fat in obesity and T2DM, and we discuss treatment strategies for T2DM in relation to beta-cell preservation.
