Swapping alpha cells for beta cells to treat diabetes: Antibodies that convert glucagon-producing cells into insulin-producing ones cure mouse models of the disease – Science Daily

Blocking cell receptors for glucagon, the counter-hormone to insulin, cured mouse models of diabetes by converting glucagon-producing cells into insulin producers instead, a team led by UT Southwestern reports in a new study. The findings, published online in PNAS, could offer a new way to treat both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes in people.More than 34 million Americans have diabetes, a disease characterized by a loss of beta cells in the pancreas.
