Rep. Dave Weldon comments on stem therapy and type I diabetes In yet another advance in adult stem cell therapy, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) today released a study in which 14 of 15 Juvenile Diabetes patients demonstrated significant improvement as a result of an adult stem cell treatment. http://www.news-medical.net/news/2007/04/11/23409.aspx
Combinatorial approach found to reverse the onset of type 1 diabetes A major finding, which represents an important step toward a potential cure for type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes, has been made by a research team at the La Jolla Institute for Allergy & Immunology (LIAI).
