Replacing what was lost: A novel cell therapy for type I diabetes mellitus. Researchers have developed a novel device for the safe and effective transplantation of human pancreatic beta-cells in type I diabetes mellitus (T1D).

This study demonstrates a novel option for cell therapy for T1D. Source 5e.
