A group of Chinese scientists and clinicians has made a groundbreaking advancement in diabetes treatment by reportedly curing a patient’s diabetes using cell therapy for the first time globally. The patient, a 59-year-old man who had been suffering from type 2 diabetes for 25 years and faced severe complications, had previously undergone a kidney transplant in 2017. Due to significant loss of pancreatic islet function, which regulates blood glucose levels, he relied heavily on daily insulin injections. Yin Hao, a leading researcher at Shanghai Changzheng Hospital, highlighted the severity of the patient’s condition, emphasizing his high risk of severe complications. In July 2021, the patient received a pioneering cell transplant that led to remarkable improvements in his health. Within eleven weeks post-transplant, he no longer required external insulin, and his oral medication to control blood sugar levels was gradually reduced and completely discontinued a year later. Follow-up exams confirmed the effective restoration of the patient's pancreatic islet function, allowing him to live insulin-free for 33 months. This medical breakthrough, achieved by a collaborative team from Shanghai Changzheng Hospital, the Centre for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science, and Renji Hospital, was documented in the journal *Cell Discovery* on April 30. Timothy Kieffer, a professor at the University of British Columbia, commended the study as a significant advancement in cell therapy for diabetes. #diabetes #cure #therapy
