If this works perhaps it can also be used to turn off the breast cancer BRCA markers.

Very good news. There are a lot of autoimmune diseases that may benefit from this technology.

On the down side, if the immune response can be turned off, it can probably be turned on. Biological mischief, or warfare, could become undetectable, gradual, and masked as a genetic disease vs a pathogen.

I wonder if this could be used for organ transplants, too.

Ok boys and girls, name another country that will fund research and developement of new, cutting edge medical advancements and breakthroughs once the American version of national health care is in full swing. The formula for success is ObamaCare = cost savings = NO Care.

ObamaKKKare has already reduced funding at the CDC for research into epidemics ~ epidemiology. A discussion on CSPAN the other day indicated it's down to less than 10% of what it was under George Bush.

That's going to be the future of medicine in this country ~ you'll be lucky to get stitches in open wounds, or aspirin at a drugstore.

Spoke to a PHD research type that writes and looks for the grants for this stuff @ a College of Medicine. She noted Drug Companies are not spending their Capital anymore for Researching Drugs. They wait for the Colleges, CDC, etc to come up with something that may make a stage trial and they they might dip their toe in the water. I don't know when this all changed, I think it happened even prior to the crash of 2008.

Now with Obamacare on top it is a Double FUBAR....

That would be nice! Tysabri is working very well for me, though.
