"textContent": "Researchers are developing a two-part therapy for type 1 diabetes: lab-made insulin-producing cells paired with custom-engineered immune cells that protect them. The goal is to stop the immune system from destroying transplanted cells — without using immunosuppressive drugs. Backed by $1 million in funding, the team hopes to create a ready-to-use treatment that could work even for people who have had diabetes for years. The approach could transform how the disease is treated.",
