We have developed an Embryonic Stem Cells Transplantation-based method (without pancreatic beta-cells) for treatment of diabetes mellitus. This method has proven its effectiveness in cases of diabetes types I and II. It is protected by a number of patents.

JDRF is the leading charitable funder and advocate of type 1 (juvenile) diabetes research worldwide. The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Type 1 diabetes is a disease which strikes children suddenly and requires multiple injections of insulin daily or a continuous infusion of insulin through a pump.  Insulin, however, is not a cure for diabetes, nor does it prevent its eventual and devastating complications which may include kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and amputation.

Scientists isolate pancreatic stem cells in lab mice

WASHINGTON (AFP) — An international team of scientists has isolated pancreatic stem cells in adult mice, a breakthrough that could lead to treatment for juvenile or Type 1 diabetes, researchers said in a study published Thursday.
