Abstract

According to many studies, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy derived from adipose tissue is one of the best therapeutic approaches for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Indeed, MSCs have several characteristics: ease of harvesting and isolation, abundance, their potential to differentiate into multiple lineages, secretion of various cytokines and growth factors, as well as their immunomodulatory effects.
