George S. Eisenbarth: Insulin and Type 1 Diabetes

Ellen H Ullman, MSW's insight:

George S. Eisenbarth, MD, PhD, could be considered a natural conduit in the research of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the fields of endocrinology and immunology. His recognition of T1D as a chronic autoimmune disease has advanced the field toward prediction, prevention, and clinical trials. His focus on insulin as the key autoantigen in islet autoimmunity unraveled the molecular basis of the insulin autoimmune response, leading to experimental antigen-specific therapies that are presently approaching clinical translation and represent a model approach for the treatment of human T1D and other autoimmune diseases.
