Transferrin - Hopeful research

[bejuce]

A friend just forwarded me these two links that seem to indicate that the Scotish are on to something. Very interesting research.

Here they are: link 1 (http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/health/scientists-make-cancer-cells-vanish-1.1022114) and link 2 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19944722?dopt=AbstractPlus).

Has anyone heard of Transferrin as a potential drug delivery mechanism?

Oh my, these Scottish people are smart aren't they. Not making fun of this. I will be over in Scotland in two weeks. Going to be in the Strathclyde area for a while, then up to the Highlands. I will ask my friends if they have any more nfo on this, they are all in the medical field.

Because of cancer's appetite for iron, there are researchers working on using it to deliver Artemesinin (http://her2support.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=43153&highlight=Artemesinin)

Thanks for posting. Very interesting article.It looks like yet again a natural substance can be very effective if we can deliver it in the right way.
