As ever, I'm cautiously optimistic. What works in mice generally doesn't work in people but it's a step in the right direction and I just hope it doesn't divert interest away from other methods in case this one doesn't work out.

In respect of the rebuilding of islet cells, there's a new medication called Exendin-4 which stimulates the growth of islet cells which has proved very promising once the mechanism that destroys those cells is blocked.
