Of course it would. But except for treatments involving major surgery -- pancreas transplants (and the anti-rejection drugs are considered more dangerous than having diabetes, so they won't do this procedure unless you also need a new kidney) or gastric bypass surgery (which means you'll never be able to eat normally again, and you may suffer from nutritional deficiencies) -- real cures are not yet available. http://www.healthcentral.com/diabetes/c/5068/19892/miracle-cure/ 58DEAE2C-9973-4D05-84B3-86450F7845BB Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:35:11 +0800 Monday, July 21, 2008 | Ed Baetge and the team of scientists he has led for seven years have had setbacks and disappointing days, but the prospect of finding the cure for Type I diabetes makes their research too tantalizing to give up. Especially now that Baetge believes that they’re on the brink of a medical breakthrough that could stave off the disease in humans. http://voiceofsandiego.org/articles/2008/07/21/news/02novocell072108.txt C4B49E90-D470-4281-A5AB-F1293B6F9E10 Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:33:40 +0800 GOOD NEWS for the diabetes patients, a Kanpur-based doctor has found role of yoga beneficial in the treatment of diabetes.

The body is unable to utilize blood glucose due to inadequate amounts of insulin produced by the pancreas in the body. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/early-diabetes-cure-treat-diabetes-with-diet-and-medication.html E47D6E92-3FB4-4E33-9360-5ABC82B912B1 Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:17:22 +0800 New research into cell differentiation has raised hopes of finding a cure for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitis. A study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences last month has shown that in vitro, duct tissue from the human pancreas can be expanded and then reverted back into pancreatic stem cells. By culturing these cells under the correct conditions, they can be directed towards differentiating into islet cells. This is an important step forward in diabetic research as duct tissue is available in a much larger volume than that of islet cells. The American research team has shown that this process of ductal tissue differentiation can produce a 10-fold to 15-fold increase in insulin content. The cells also respond appropriately to increases in blood glucose volumes. http://student.bmj.com/issues/00/09/news/312a.php AD02A216-3ECC-4B68-91AD-4729901AEAD6 Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:14:38 +0800 Scientists at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have initiated a phase 1 clinical trial to reverse type 1 diabetes.
