Salk scientists find “secret sauce” for personalized, functional insulin-producing cells

Salk scientists have solved a longstanding problem in the effort to create replacement cells for diabetic patients. The team uncovered a hidden energy switch that, when flipped, powers up pancreatic cells to respond to glucose, a step that eluded previous research. The result is the production of hundreds of millions of lab-produced human beta cells—able to relieve diabetes in mice. http://www.salk.edu/news-release/salk-scientists-find-secret-sauce-for-personalized-functional-insulin-producing-cells/
