Stanford's new cell therapy cures type 1 diabetes in mice
Researchers at Stanford found a way to cure or prevent Type 1 diabetes in mice using a combined blood stem cell and islet cell transplant. The procedure creates a hybrid immune system that stops autoimmune attacks and eliminates the need for immune-suppressing drugs. The method uses tools already common in clinical practice, putting human trials within reach. Scientists think the same strategy could transform treatments for autoimmune conditions…
Type 1 diabetes may be one step closer to a solution thanks to an experimental treatment developed by researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine. This treatment has been able to prevent the disease in prediabetic mice and completely reverse it in animals with established diabetes. The key lies in a hybrid approach that combines blood stem cells and donated pancreatic cells, all without triggering rejection and without resorting to imm…
