I think Science Daily is a reliable source.
What strikes me is that if an adenovirus can deliver a gene, I wonder what viruses that infect us also are capable of damaging the dorsal roots? Already we have Herpes Zoster as a causative agent, and I wonder what others are floating out there?
Also, I'd expect there to be a LONG time period before it becomes a therapeutic reality. And if and when it comes, VERY expensive.
