Diabetes type 1 is treated by lifelong insulin by injection several times a day or by an insulin pump. Till now , for type 1Diabetes we rely on Insulin injection but early trials of nasal spray could prevent Diabetes type 1. Its hoped the vaccine will prevent kids from developing the type of diabetes , known as childhood diabetes , a chronic,life threatening condition. Australian researchers are a step nearer to developing a vaccine for type 1 diabetes, after showing that a nasal spray can stop the body's immune system from attacking insulin-producing cells. The nasal vaccine approach, if shown to be successful in human type 1 diabetes, could also be tested with different vaccines for the prevention of other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis.
