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.
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.
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.
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.
