A groundbreaking stem cell procedure has reversed Type 1 diabetes in a woman in China, marking a major medical milestone:

Researchers used the woman’s own cells, reprogramming them into insulin-producing stem cells.

As a result, she began producing insulin naturally for the first time since developing the condition. This breakthrough offers new hope for millions with Type 1 diabetes, who currently depend on insulin therapy to manage their blood sugar levels.

The study involved three patients with Type 1 diabetes. Scientists extracted cells from each patient, converted them into stem cells capable of transforming into any cell type, and chemically reprogrammed them into insulin-producing cells.

These newly created cells were then placed inside the patients’ stomachs, where they began producing insulin. While it’s early days, the success with the first patient suggests a future where Type 1 diabetics may no longer need insulin injections to survive.
