Alternative treatments and potential cures for type 1 diabetes

Peterson D (2025) Alternative treatments and potential cures for type 1 diabetes. SD State Univ Thesis.

Objective: To discuss alternative treatment for type one diabetes.

Summary: The use of immunological therapies and stem cells differentiated in insulin-like secreting beta cells is at the forefront of therapies aimed at preserving beta cell function and the potential of a cure for type one diabetes. A recent study evaluated multiple cell lines with the NKp46 receptor present to examine the effects of a new antibody drug called 02. The result was that the 02-saporin significantly decreased the NK tumor cell line from proliferating.

Usage: 02-saporin was introducted to a NK tumor cell line while comparing another well-known drug with saporin attached.
