Is it really a promising therapy?

Hi watu,
Hi watu,
Since these studies are in mice, it's really too early to tell. Many ideas look promising in the lab or in animal models but either never reach human trials or fail when they do. Of course, every successful idea starts somewhere, so the more avenues of research (such as this one) the better. Only time will tell whether this idea will turn into an actual therapy and succeed in human trials.
