Encouraging Report on Stem Cell Treatment for Type I Diabetes

Glad to see this encouraging report on individualized stem cell treatment for treating Type I diabetes. A few comments:

1. This is a very small study, and though the results are very good, it's appropriate to expand the study. Also, no double-blind data available.

2. Note that these are adult stem cells, taken from the individuals and then put into their own pancreas. They are not using embryonic stem cells (which would be from other individuals).

3. There is still some wonderful mystery here, because the mode(s) of action are unclear.
