Stem Cell Diabetes

It will take years to develop and evaluate a truly effective Stem Cell-based therapy for Diabetes. The two most significant obstacles are obtaining a sufficient quantity of Insulin-producing cells and protecting these cells from immune system attack. It is now possible to generate Insulin-producing cells from human ESCs and iPS cells, which represents a huge step forward in resolving the Beta Cell supply shortage.
