Certain body parts, such as the skin or liver, can repair themselves after damage. Cell regeneration is the phenomenon by which cells that are still functional proliferate to compensate for cellular damage. For the past 30 years, scientists have been investigating the regenerative potential of beta cells, pancreatic cells in charge of the production of insulin. The beta-cell population is indeed partially destroyed when diabetes occurs, and regenerating these cells represents an outstanding clinical…
