A Stanford Medicine team has developed a novel antibody-based approach that prepares patients for stem cell transplants without relying on toxic chemotherapy or radiation. Credit: Stock A Phase 1 clinical trial has shown that an antibody developed at Stanford Medicine can prepare patients for stem cell transplantation while avoiding toxic side effects. A phase 1 clinical trial has demonstrated that …

Mice Tcf7flox/floxLef1flox/flox mice were generated by H.-H.X. (Center for Discovery and Innovation)20,61. Mb1Cre mice, Rag1−/− and CD45.1 mice were maintained on a C57BL/6 background and housed in specific pathogen-free conditions at the Australian National University (ANU) Bioscience Facility. Tcf7flox/floxLef1flox/flox mice were backcrossed at least six times onto the C57BL/6 background, then were subsequently crossed to Mb1Cre mice to generate conditional …

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) potently amplify insulin secretion and influence satiety to reduce food intake1,2,3. Stabilized GLP1R agonists were approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in 2008 (ref. 4) and at higher doses for overweight and obesity in 2017 and 2018 (ref. 5). Less attention has been paid to the GIP axis, as multiple …

Anna Monaco has been building AI agents since before the term “AI agents” was even a thing. After building numerous chatbots, she started looking for other types of interfaces that made sense for AI agents and landed on spreadsheets. “I had this personal pattern, and I noticed that a lot of other people had this pattern, of putting very important …

A patient with type 1 diabetes has begun producing his own insulin after receiving a transplant of pancreatic cells. For the first time in humans, these islet cells have been genetically edited so they wouldn’t be rejected by the patient, removing the need for immunosuppressant drugs. Type 1 diabetes usually begins when the immune system mistakenly attacks the islet cells …

A man with type 1 diabetes has become the first patient to produce his own insulin after receiving genetically engineered cell transplants, without needing drugs to prevent rejection. The case, published this month in the New England Journal of Medicine, marks a potential breakthrough in the treatment of the disease, which affects 9.5 million people worldwide. Type 1 diabetes occurs …
