Put "Synthetic Peptide" in your "Find" tool; it will lead you to the AT-001 [aka dnaJP1] drug that I'd written about before. Things look promising. Dare I dream?

Yes, I completely agree with you, furthmore I think that dr. Salvatore Albani will make diffefence in this endless circle of trying to find something that will finally work for people with RA and will not have such severe side efects like biol.I caught it, thanks. I know that Albani has an interest in juvenile RA, so I'm going to see if I can track down some papers he may have written and released to the medical community. Might shed some light.

Lee, Have you heard anythig new with DR AlbaniHi, Geoff,
Nothing. I contacted the biopharmaceutical he's affiliated with [Androclus Therapeutics] asking for more info and where they are currently. They emailed me right back and advised they were in talks with the FDA, though they didn't elaborate. I and several other people are eager for news.
