trofala, >> King of the pathways << LGND seeks to effect beneficial changes in human diseases by interfering in the cellular signalling pathways so as to tweak the body's own machinery to produce more of something that has been insufficiently produced & /or less of something that is being excessively expressed. The "and/or " refers to the times when it might be necessary to downregulate one occurrence & simultaneously upregulate another. The "and" part of it would happen when they just downregulate an overexpressor. The "king" refers to my uninformed opinion that LGND seems to do it better than the others I am aware of.
I've been aware of Erox. Slathered it all over me. Didn't help. I think I'll go back to armpits.
