    EZH2 inhibitors promote β-like cell regeneration in young and adult type 1 diabetes donors

    β-cells are a type of endocrine cell found in pancreatic islets that synthesize, store and release insulin. In type 1 diabetes (T1D), T-cells of the immune system selectively destroy the insulin-producing β-ce...
