Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Two cancer drug shows promise in remission of type 1 diabetes. What is interesting to me in this, that might suggest a link between cause of cancer and diabetes. Since some research seems to link fungus to cancer and diabetes, i.e. Doug Kaufman, to name one, it would seem to reinforce his linking diabetes and cancer to fungus. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/11/081118092250.htm ScienceDaily (Nov. 18, 2008) — Two common cancer drugs have been shown to both prevent and reverse type 1 diabetes in a mouse model of the disease, according to research conducted at the University of California, San Francisco. The drugs – imatinib (marketed as Gleevec) and sunitinib (marketed as Sutent) – were found to put type 1 diabetes into remission in 80 percent of the test mice and work permanently in 80 percent of those that go into remission. rest of article at link above.
