Title: Aussie Breakthrough to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis
Post by: Sjenny on August 10, 2008, 03:57:54 PM
Australian scientists are designing a drug to stop damaged proteins from operating which they hope will stop cancer, asthma and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.

I don't know if this holds any promise for us, but we often have to "borrow" treatments from RA.

Thanks Sue,

I printed out a copy to show my rheumy on Thursday.  He teaches and maybe he hasn't seen it yet.
