Abstract

Basic research on cell therapy strategies for diabetes using stem cells has considerably advanced in the last decade. The generation of functional beta cells from human pluripotent stem cells is possible, and these can replace the traditional pancreatic islet transplantation to treat diabetics. In the present review we focused on various strategies to be followed for successful transplantation of MSCs in diabetic therapy.
