They also discovered that their treatments curbed the insulin resistance that is the hallmark of Type 2 diabetes, and that insulin resistance is a major factor in Type 1 diabetes, suggesting the two illnesses are quite similar.

This looks like a great discovery and although it may not cure me but perhaps if my children and/or grandchildren are unlucky enough to become diabetic - who knows what cures the future may bring ?
