Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowDiabetes Breakthrough: No More Anti-Rejection Meds?Imagine managing type 1 diabetes without those brutal anti-rejection drugs. A Swedish man just became the first person to get gene-edited insulin cells that survived in his body for months—no immune-suppressing meds needed! Scientists used CRISPR to make donor cells invisible to the immune system and added a “don’t eat me” signal. It’s not a total cure yet (he still needs some insulin), but this could totally flip diabetes treatment on its head. Next up: lab-grown cells for everyone? #Health #BodyHealth #DiabetesBreakthrough362Share
Charles Christensen+FollowThis Diabetes Drug Could Change EverythingA UK mom is one of the first to try a new diabetes drug that literally reprograms your immune system—no joke! Teplizumab can delay the need for insulin by up to three years if caught early. Imagine not having to start insulin shots right away! Researchers are now using genetics to spot people at risk even sooner. If this works out, managing type 1 diabetes could look totally different in the future. Huge deal for anyone affected! #Health #BodyHealth #DiabetesBreakthrough651Share
Charles Christensen+FollowCould This Be a Diabetes Game-Changer?A new stem cell treatment called zimislecel might actually help people with type 1 diabetes ditch insulin for good! In a recent study, 10 out of 12 participants who got the full dose didn’t need insulin a year later. It’s not all smooth sailing—there were some serious side effects—but this could be a huge step toward a real cure. FDA approval could be on the horizon if results keep looking good. Would you try it? #DiabetesBreakthrough #StemCellResearch #HealthNews #Health102Share
Joseph Bradley+FollowStem Cells Could Change Diabetes ForeverMajor news for type 1 diabetes: a new stem cell treatment helped most patients ditch insulin after just a year! In a small trial, 10 out of 12 people with severe diabetes stopped needing daily insulin shots thanks to lab-grown islet cells. The therapy isn’t perfect yet (there were some side effects and risks), but it’s a huge step toward a real cure. Imagine not having to worry about insulin every day! More studies are coming, but this could be a total game-changer. #DiabetesBreakthrough #StemCellTherapy #MedicalNews #Health201Share
Aaron Rodriguez+FollowStem Cells Might Replace Insulin?!This is wild—an experimental stem cell therapy just helped most people with type 1 diabetes ditch insulin shots completely for a whole year! The treatment, zimislecel, basically gives you new insulin-making cells. Out of 12 people who got the full dose, 10 didn’t need insulin at all after a year. There are still some safety concerns, but this could be a total game-changer for diabetes if it pans out. Fingers crossed for more good news! #DiabetesBreakthrough #StemCellTherapy #MedicalNews #Health #BodyHealth130Share
Joseph Bradley+FollowCould This Be a Diabetes Game-Changer?Scientists just found a cellular ‘switch’ that might actually reverse type 2 diabetes! Basically, when your cells get stressed, they mess up insulin production, but researchers discovered a way to stop that stress response in mice—and their blood sugar improved big time. If this works in humans, it could mean less relying on just managing symptoms and more actually fixing the root problem. Imagine a future where diabetes is way easier to handle! #DiabetesBreakthrough #HealthNews #ScienceWin #Health5916Share
