What, if anything, those antibodies do there is unknown. http://www.healthnewswire.net/health_sciences/1119.html 2009-09-27T14:25:00+00:00 2009-09-27T14:25:00+00:00 admin By Susan Brown -- Viruses like Hepatitis C proliferate by tricking cellular machinery into manufacturing the parts for duplicate viral particles. Although thwarting that process might effectively treat viral infections, the few inhibiting compounds that have been identified so far aren’t good candidates for drugs. And biochemists weren’t exactly sure how they were working. http://www.healthnewswire.net/health_sciences/1118.html 2009-09-27T14:22:00+00:00 2009-09-27T14:22:00+00:00 admin Boston, MA--A high-tech device that expands the visual field of patients with tunnel vision has passed a collision test in a walking simulator, according to scientists at Schepens Eye Research Institute, in a study published in the September issue of Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science .
