Diabetes Treatment

Stem cell therapy offers hope for diabetes treatment by replacing damaged beta cells and regulating immune responses, potentially reducing the need for insulin injections and medications.

Stem Cell Treatments for Diabetics

Diabetes happens when blood sugar levels are too high because insulin, produced by the pancreas, isn't effectively used or produced enough. This leads to glucose buildup in the blood instead of being used by cells for energy.
High blood glucose levels over time can lead to health complications. While standard medicine offers no cure for diabetes, effective management is possible. Stem Cell Therapy in regenerative medicine shows promise as a beneficial treatment for diabetes. Terms like "a touch of sugar" or "borderline diabetes" may downplay the seriousness of the condition, but every case of diabetes requires attention and care.
Benefits of stem cell treatment.
Stem cells can restore insulin production in diabetes.
Less need for insulin injections and medications.
Stem cell therapy reduces diabetes complications.
Improved blood sugar control and quality of life.

First type of Diabetes

In first type of diabetes, the body fails to produce insulin because the immune system targets and destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. While typically diagnosed in children and young adults, it can develop at any age. Individuals with type 1 diabetes require daily insulin injections to survive.

The precise reason why the body's immune system attacks beta cells, leading to Type 1 diabetes, remains unclear. While it's believed to involve genetic predisposition and environmental influences, the exact cause is not definitively understood.

Second type of Diabetes

Second type of diabetes occurs when the body doesn't produce or use insulin effectively. It can develop at any age, including childhood, but is most commonly diagnosed in middle-aged and older individuals. This type of diabetes is the most prevalent form of the condition.

This type of diabetes occurs when the cells resist insulin action and the insulin produced is not enough to overcome this resistance, the reason behind this resistance is also unknown but it is strongly assumed that obesity is directly linked to this type of diabetes.

Stem cells offer beneficial effects for diabetes

Protect and prevent remaining β-cells from dying (apoptosis)
Promote beta cell function
Transform into β-cells
Regulating of the immune system (immunomodulation)
Reduce inflammation (anti-inflammatory)
Induce autophagic activity
Prevent and reverse metabolic hormone resistance
Regulate blood sugar levels
Encourage existing cells to self-repair (autocrine effect)
Encourage existing cells to adapt (plasticity)

Outcomes attained through stem cell treatment

Decreased fasting blood sugars and Hemoglobin A1C levels.
Decreased inflammatory markers like C-Reactive Protein.
Improved kidney function with reduced creatinine levels.
An improved capacity for physical activities
An increased feeling of vitality with improved energy levels
A reduced risk of complications
Loss of neuropathy (numbness)
Loss of pruritus (itchy skin)
Loss of Nocturia (having to wake up from sleep to urinate)
An increased libido
