The patient: Huang Hong(alias), male, six years old, Haian County, Jiangsu
Province.
1. Main Complaints: Half a year ago, the patient showed up the symptoms of
dryness of the mouth, polydipsia
and polyuria, so he was hospitalized in a local hospital with the test result
of fasting blood sugar 19.3mmol/l, urine glucose 4+ and urine acetone bodies 3+.
He was diagnosed as Type 1 Diabetes. Before long, he was transferred into
Shijiazhuang Kidney Hospital with the further test report as postprandial blood
sugar 27.63mmol/L, urine acetone bodies 3+, and also diagnosed as Type 1
Diabetes together with Diabetic Ketoacidosis. After giving him the static point
insulin therapy, the urine acetone bodies turned to negative. In the later, the
therapy was adjusted to insulin aspart injection treatment with 6U in the
morning, 4U the afternoon and 3U the evening. And the LANTUS insulin glargine
subcutaneous injection was conducted 2U per evening. The blood sugar was
controlled between 9—26mmol/l.Is It Safe for Diabetic to Use Sodium Polystyrene Sulfonate to Lower Potassium How Can Type 1 Diabetics Lower Creatinine Fast
2. Stem Cell Therapy in Hospital: The blood pressure is 90/60mmHg; the blood
sugar control is not steady and its fluctuation is relatively great with fasting
blood sugar 7mmol/l and postprandial blood sugar 26mmol/L or so. The function of
liver and kidney is normal and the urokinase protein shows the negative
character and also, the hematopoiesis function is normal with no serious
infection recently.Is Stem Cell Treatment an Option for Kidney Failure Stem Cell Therapy for End Stage Renal Disease
3. Treatment in Hospital: According to the discussion result of experts and
the consent from his parents, the patient was given cord Stem Cell. Three month
after operation, the blood sugar was controlled stably and the insulin decreased
with fasting 4mmol/l and postprandial 10mmol/l or so; the renal function is
normal and the urokinase protein shows the negative character. The pancreas
islet function is better than before and the blood sugar is stably controlled
with fasting 5mmol/l and postprandial 12mmol/l or so. And the glycosylated
hemoglobin is 7%.
4. Expert Comments: Type 1 diabetes relies upon insulin in the treatment, so
that is to say, the patients need to use insulin from the start of the attacking
of the disease and have to use it for a lifelong time. The patients not only
have to suffer the inconvenience and pain resulted by insulin injection, but
also cannot control the glycemic stability completely, and also cannot prevent
the occurrence of later complications. So the ideal therapy is to make the
pancreas cell proliferated by exogenous or endogenous transplantation. Stem Cell
Therapy is a kind of that cell which has the strong capacity to self-renew and
have the ability to generate differentiated cells. After its injection into the
organism, pancreatic cells regeneration mechanism could have the following
changes:
1. After the implantation of Stem Cell Therapy, bone marrow cell return
homing first, then it is mobilized to the damaged pancreas tissues, and then it
boosts the regeneration of the islet cells.Stem Cell Therapy Treats Kidney Disease or Kidney Failure Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital
2. After the transplant of Stem Cell , the previous immune network would be
broken and organism would rebuilds the new network, and then develop into the
new tolerance and meantime repair the damaged pancreas. The main manifestations
for Immune Reconstitution Therapy (IRT) are the change of T cell, the proportion
inversion of CD4/CD8 lymphocyte and the increase of the natural inhabitation
cells. During the process of IRT after the clearance of immune, autoantigen can
produce tolerance again and restore the normal immunologic balance.Stem Cell Therapy - PKD Treatment Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital
3. Stem Cell Therapy could differentiate into the endothelial cells after its
entering into the pancreas islet, and these differentiated endothelial cells
could stimulate the pancreas somatic cells and make them proliferation, which
would make the precursors eventually differentiated into pancreatic endocrine
cells, insulin, glucagon, Islet-like Cell Clusters(ICCs) of somatostatin, etc.

graft in pancreas could also make the pancreatic cells proliferation rapidly,
and produce the new-born insulin positive cells, so the blood sugar could be
reduced.
4. Improve the organic immunity, adjust the internal environment, reduce the
resistance to insulin, and increase the sensibility to insulin, promote the
paracrine of insulin and promote the repair to insulin. We think that Stem Cell
Therapy could promote the regeneration of pancreas endogenous islet cell as well
as the insulin secretion cell; increase the insulin secretions, and at the same
time, increase the sensitivity of the glycoprotein in cells and promote the
combination of islet receptor and insulin, and reduce the resistance of insulin
and promote the paracrine of insulin, so as to achieve the purpose of treating
Diabetes.
