Wireless implant lowered blood glucose in mice with type 2 diabetes and obesity

Researchers tested a wirelessly powered implant in mice with type 2 diabetes and obesity. In their Science study, repeated treatment maintained glucose control for six weeks, and treated mice had lower body weight. The implant converted glucose into gluconate and activated when a connected monitor detected glucose above a preset threshold. These are mouse findings, not evidence that the device works as a treatment for people.
