I have not sure...but several approaches to "cure" diabetes are being pursued:
* Pancreas transplantation
* Islet cell transplantation (islet cells produce insulin)
* Artificial pancreas development
* Genetic manipulation (fat or muscle cells that don't normally make insulin have a human insulin gene inserted & then these "pseudo" islet cells are transplanted into people with type 1 diabetes)
* A gene therapy developed by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine has apparently cured diabetes in mice by inducing cells in the liver to become beta cells that produce insulin and three other hormones
