One takeaway about that is the fact the blood brain 'barrier' can be breached, and I see work done now for such molecules to allow the attack on brain tumors, a dear friend of mine, Ray Scudero, a polymath genius died of brain tumor age 51, he left a repertoire of over 600 songs in Jerusalem and is sorely missed by a lot of folks in Israel.
That would be something if they could cure brain tumors using blood brain barrier busters with therapeutics.
