A member asked:
Can type 1 diabetes be cured by stem-cell treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Not really because what is wrong with diabetes is that the pancreas has no more cells that produce Insulin so even if you can stop the production of cells that will fight against the pancreas we do not know how to make new healthy cells that will make Insulin again.
