Neo Islets Possible T1D Cure
Scientists at SymbioCellTech (SCT) have developed a technology called Neo Islets for possible type 1 diabetes (T1D) cure. It combines Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) with culture-expanded pancreatic islet cells to form three-dimensional cellular clusters. The scientists performed the technique in mice. All treated mice demonstrated normal blood glucose control without the need for anti-rejection drugs or encapsulation devices….
