1823 results for "diabetes cure"
Researchers are developing a groundbreaking therapy that could free 1.5 million Americans from daily insulin injections by combining lab-grown insulin cells with immune system "bodyguards." The $1 million project aims to create a cure that works without harsh immunosuppressive drugs.
Researchers have cured type 1 diabetes in mice using a breakthrough method that doesn't require lifelong immune-suppressing medications. The innovative technique creates a blended immune system that accepts transplanted insulin-producing cells naturally.
Researchers at USC discovered a hidden microprotein in our cells that could lead to personalized treatments for Type 2 diabetes, especially for Mexican and Mexican American communities who carry a specific genetic variant. Mouse studies show the protein improved insulin function and blocked weight gain.
Scientists created a breakthrough two-part treatment that restores insulin-producing cells and protects them from immune attacks, potentially freeing millions from daily insulin injections. The therapy combines lab-grown cells with engineered immune "bodyguard" cells.
Stanford Medicine researchers reversed Type 1 diabetes in mice using a groundbreaking dual transplant that resets the immune system. The animals stayed diabetes-free for six months without insulin or immune suppressing drugs.
Scientists in Bangkok transformed fat tissue from dogs into working insulin-producing cells, potentially ending the need for daily diabetes injections in pets. The breakthrough could give diabetic dogs and cats their lives back.
Scientists are testing breakthrough treatments that could eliminate type 1 diabetes symptoms within the next few years. Late-stage trials of beta cell replacement therapy are showing real promise for millions living with the disease.
Rain couldn't stop 400 Winnipeggers from walking to fund Type 1 diabetes research, smashing their $72,000 goal. Families walked together to prove that no one fights this disease alone.
Groundbreaking therapies combining stem cells and immune drugs are showing real promise in helping people with type 1 diabetes produce their own insulin again. One patient has already delayed disease progression for nearly a decade.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine eliminated Type 1 diabetes in mice for six months without insulin shots or immune-suppressing drugs. The breakthrough uses an "immune system reset" that could transform treatment for millions living with autoimmune diseases.
A century after discovering insulin, Canada is pushing for federal funding to build a national research network that could accelerate curative therapies for type 1 diabetes and create hundreds of high-skilled jobs. The investment could move breakthrough treatments from lab to patients years sooner.
A 14-year-old from Invermere, British Columbia, has raised more than $48,000 for Type 1 diabetes research through his annual Canada Day taco stand. Max LeBlanc has turned his diagnosis into a mission that brings his whole community together.
A groundbreaking clinical trial has freed all 12 Type 1 diabetes patients from daily insulin injections, with most achieving normal blood sugar in just 60 days. The combination of transplanted islet cells and a new drug called Tegoprubart could transform life for millions.
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has managed type 1 diabetes since age 9, and now he's using his platform to help others understand the critical connection between diabetes and eye health. His message: with proper care, people with diabetes can achieve anything.
Researchers discovered that blocking a single protein prevented diabetic eye damage in mice before it could start. The finding could help protect vision in millions of people with diabetes before symptoms ever appear.
A groundbreaking insulin inhaler could soon spare millions of Type 1 diabetes patients from daily injections. The medical breakthrough offers new hope for easier diabetes management.
Scientists discovered that curcumin, the bright yellow compound in turmeric, reversed blood vessel damage in diabetic rats within just one month. The breakthrough offers hope for protecting the 2 million Americans with Type 1 diabetes from early heart disease.
A cheap diabetes drug that's been around for 100 years is helping people with type 1 diabetes use significantly less insulin each day. Scientists are now racing to understand why it works so they can help even more patients.
Scientists at Johns Hopkins have developed a therapy that could reverse Type 1 diabetes shortly after diagnosis by correcting the immune system itself, not just managing blood sugar. The breakthrough, seven years in the making, targets the root cause of the disease that affects 2.1 million Americans.
A groundbreaking triple-action weekly injection helped people with type 2 diabetes lose more than four times the weight of standard treatment while dramatically improving blood sugar control. The drug works differently than existing medications by targeting three hormones instead of one or two.
