Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Type 2 Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells indicate the therapeutic effects and safety on type 2 diabetes by characteristics of secretion and immune Immunomodulation.
Detailed description
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can improve insulin resistance of the target tissues, reduce the islet progressive damage, ease or regenerate of the islet beta cells and improve hyperglycemic state of diabetes by secreting a variety of cytokines. It can induce damaged alpha cells differentiate into beta cells in the islet transformation to realize the islet beta cells in situ regeneration by improving microenvironment of islet beta cells. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells also have immunosuppressive effect, it can promote islet cell repair and regeneration by the inhibition of T cell mediated immune response to beta cells.

Masking description
All investigators and participants were masked to treatment allocation. The independent data monitoring committee and the statisticians supporting the committee's activities were the only people with access to unblinded data.
Intervention model description
UC-MSCs (1.5×106/kg) or the same volume of placebo (suspension liquid without UC-MSCs)
