My experience has been that every year about 4 different type-1 diabetes cures are found in mice. This sounds like one of them. My experience is that less than half of these cures are ever even tried in people. I wait until someone is trying to organize a human trial before I start to track possible cures. To see my list of type-1 cures currently in human trials, or with human trials planned, look here: http://joshualevy.pbwiki.com/DiabetesCureReadyForHumanTrials Although the research you ask about will not be there, because it is mice only. I would be especially careful about cancer drugs repurposed for type-1 diabetes. Many cancer drugs are quite toxic, but this is a small price to pay to cure or even slow down your leukemia. However, it might be too high a price to pay compared with standard type-1 diabetes treatments (even if they are not cures).
