Transplanting Islets into Bone Marrow
The location for islets have been toyed with for decades. Although they have been transplanted to the liver, some people cannot sustain this procedure based on their liver health. New research is finding that a potential landing zone for transplanted islets could be the bone marrow, as published in Diabetes. Historically, transplanted islets have been transfused through […]

The Bilary Tree for Adult Stem Cells
The DRI may have identified stem cells that can become insulin-producing cells to be used in the BioHub. The information was published on DRI tv. Scientists have found stem cells that can proliferate into insulin-producing cells in a small duct that connects the liver and the pancreas. These special stem cells are found in the […]

Insulin Making Cells Multiply in Test Tubes
There is a shortage of cold bodies to service the needs of people waiting for diabetes-curing islet cell transplants. The answer to this biological quagmire may be right around the corner. PLoS One has published a study showing that researchers have grown functioning insulin-producing cells in a test tube. “Until now, there didn’t seem to be […]

DRI Quantum Leap in a T1D Biological Cure
“Quantum Leap” was a show about Dr. Sam Beckett, a quantum physicist who experienced time travel in his own lifetime. The DRI is forging time travel for people with T1D by developing the BioHub. In a world where the conventional diabetes treatments have been stuck in a time loop, the BioHub proposes a biological cure […]

Of Mice and Men In Diabetes Studies
When research is done on a mouse model and translated into man, are we expecting too much similarity? Researchers undertook the hypothesis and sought to understand a way to more closely develop the mouse models for testing to mimic human models. The chances of a mouse study moving into human trials to demonstrate success has […]

Fuel funding for a cure
Wouldn’t it be ideal if you could throw a few bucks toward curing diabetes when you stop to fill-up your car? There is a mastermind who asked the same question and found a way to make it happen. Sammy M. Eljamal, president of Wholesale Fuels, a FuelCo subsidiary, was able to exceed thee expectations of […]

A 6-week SCUBA for islet cells
Oxygen is a precious resource for everyday life and the very beginning stages of older cells in a new place. A recent study is showing that the survival rate of newly transplanted islets is remarkably improved with a natural coating. The survival rate of transplanted islets is not as good as it needs to […]

The cure is coming….in 5 years. Yeah, right!
If you’ve have juvenile diabetes (aka type 1 diabetes) you’ve probably heard the claim we will have a cure in 5 years. I’ve heard it before. I’ve had type 1 diabetes since 1985. When is the due date of this 5 years? Perhaps an alliance should form with the sole purpose of focusing the effort on […]

Disguising stem cells in search of a diabetes cure
Often times when I read stories about stem cell development in pursuit of a cure for type 1 diabetes I get a feeling of what’s the use. Ideally stem cells are supposed to become the cells they are cultivated to replace. But because type 1 diabetes is caused by an autoimmune misfire that destroys the […]
