sorry to interrupt the catfight, but I have a question about LGND ...

Henry, the 1550 press release was lean on data. Have you heard any more from what was presented yesterday?

Also, it sounds like 1550 has a pretty mild side effect profile, and as the press release says, there was no sign of the headaches and lipid abnormalities seen in other retinoids.

Any idea of what causes the lipid effects of retinoids? And are those effects caused by the action of a subset of the retiniod receptors?

Peter
