Default GIFT15 -- Hope on the horizon for an MS cure?

Well, they can cure it in mice, anyway.

They've taken two proteins that, individually, stimulate the immune system. But when they fuse them together in the lab, sprinkle them on B-cells and give them back intravenously, they suppress it!

The treatment was effective with a single dose with no apparent side effects.
