A Cure for Diabetes

Discovery News reports that a cure for diabetes is just around the corner.
Apparently the biologists can now arbitrarily induce, or cure, diabetes in rats by using pig cells. The factor is rapidly being isolated, and after extensive testing, a human version is planned in which a person can receive an injection, and thereafter not have diabetes.
I'm pleased with what science hath wrought today.

I am skeptical. When it is performed in humans, reliably, under peer-reviewed circumstances, I'll change my tune. But this is an extraordinary claim and it requires very rigorous evidence of efficacy and safety.

I'm looking forward to it becoming sane medicine too.
