There was some recent news about a group of people in Brazil with type 1 diabetes who were treated with their own stem cells and all but one showed great improvement in there condition. It appears that your own adult stem cells can be used to treat whatever disease you have?

Voltarelli's team tested the ability of high-dose immune suppression and stem cell transplantation to preserve beta cell function in 15 patients who were diagnosed with type I diabetes in the previous 6 weeks. All of them required insulin.
Stem cell transplantation involves the harvesting and treatment of a patient's own stem cells and then returning them to the patient via intravenous injection.
