FWIW, wizkidaces on yahoo, with an ID update of 12 August, claimed that the big news by end of August related to gene therapy announcement by Vivus - re experiments on rats. In fact he appeared not to understand too well about either gene therapy or muse and was corrected by another poster. The information that I gave earlier on gene therapy was obtained from a still unpublished manuscript by Dr Christ. This was a photocopy of page proofs. Since interval between receipt by authors of page proofs and publications is usually short, 1-3 months, the paper itself could be coming out this or next month. It will be in one of the journals of the American Physiological Society, don't know which one. No!! here is the abstract, oac3.hsc.uth.tmc.edu And the July issue of the journal oac3.hsc.uth.tmc.edu It must in August!? So is Vivus going to make a splash with this. Remember how much that rat cancer cure made entremed go up. Remember that here though, it is human cDNA that is used. If human DNA works in rats it will certainly be expected to work in humans.
