Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which the patient's immune system recognizes their pancreatic islet insulin-producing cells and destroys them. To cure T1D in a comprehensive manner, not only must the islet cells be replaced, the patient's immune system must also be properly regulated mostly in the form of suppression. Blood-derived new stem cells have shown promise in both aspects of this treatment.
