Sounds promising and hopefully it will improve the lives of a lot of people. I haven't got a source, but I was reading today about development in anti allergy treatments too, that could perhaps 'cure' things such as asthma, heyfever and food allergies.
Are we hitting a new age of chemical therapies, and if such treatments can be found for these complicated disorders, then when are we going to hit the big ones, such as AIDS and the big bad C?
I hope it will be soon.
