Final answer:

Type 1 diabetes can potentially be cured by pancreatic islet cell transplants if not rejected by the immune system, providing a more refined way to manage insulin levels compared to injections.


Explanation:

False. While Type 1 diabetes is typically managed with insulin injections, pancreatic islet cell transplants from other human donors have shown potential to cure some patients of diabetes if not rejected by the immune system. These transplants can provide a more refined control of insulin release compared to insulin injections. However, such surgeries are limited due to a shortage of suitable donors.
