How far off are we for real permanent cures for (currently) uncurable diseases like diabetes...

>Under the terms of the collaboration agreement, Anokion received a $45 million upfront payment and is eligible to receive a future payment of an additional $10 million based on certain preclinical development achievements. As part of the strategic collaboration agreement, Celgene obtained an equity interest in Anokion and the exclusive right to acquire Anokion at pre-specified option exercise points.

>During the option period, Anokion will retain full control of its research and development programs.

>Anokion is advancing its antigen-specific immune tolerance platform to develop therapeutics for multiple autoimmune indications. This proprietary and industry-leading platform has diverse applications that include tolerizing the immune system to self-antigens that underlie autoimmune disorders as well as reducing the immunogenicity of therapeutic proteins.

>Anokion’s most advanced approach to immune tolerance harnesses the body’s natural tolerance mechanism of apoptotic or aging cells. It involves engineering antigens, relevant to a broad range of autoimmune disorders, to bind glycophorin A, a surface protein unique to erythrocytes or red blood cells. When these circulating blood cells undergo apoptosis, the immune system recognizes the attached antigens and elicits a tolerogenic immune response against them.

It's over. Big Pharma bought them back.

Also, interesting reading at: anokion.com/technology/ to understand what they do

AIDS, influenza, and other quickly mutating viruses are very hard to tackle.

what about balding?? 2017 and we can't make hair to grow in our fucking heads, Fuck I hate science now!!

shave your head and try to look good without hair. also let it go, psychologically speaking.

thats not the spirit that makes science to progress.

I've been seeing a lot of stuff regarding successful trials on mice curing type 1 diabetes for over a year.

Honestly I have the cures for both HIV1 and Cancer on my shelf next to a jar containing the most deadly and infectious virus I could manage to engineer, and I'm at a crisis as to which path I could take. So to answer your question, may be five years? Not sure, perhaps I'll just kill myself.

we might actually have Alzheimers licked
YUGE if true.

diabetes will be cured when we can regrow a pancreas: before you die.

cancer will never be cured until we have self-sufficient nanobots or somehow perfect, design, and replace DNA replication and repair: maybe before your kids die.

AIDS is basically cured with retrovirals.

i attended a presentation by a pretty key alzheimer's researcher who said in 50 years he is 90% certain people will no longer die or be succeptible to alzheimer's symptoms unless untreated. He developed an anti-AB antibody which can precipitate circulating rogue prion AB versions in the blood upon dialysis treatment. Was extremely interesting and the mice studies were very promising

How far off are we from OP not being a fag? same answer

Let's see how far technology can take us

Are they or is it just that there's not as much of a push to cure it due to (((Big Pharma))) wanting to sell you drugs?

Fug. Family has a history of diabetes so I've been trying like hell to watch my sugar intake while actually silently hoping they develop something soon.

Who was it?

see

FUCK

Just use the link and view the comment that that's responding to, that's what I meant to link. It sure as hell isnt a cure, but it checks out.

dr. claudio soto, he works at UTMB, he's easily googlable

Interesting stuff.

Already solved, poorfag.

>cure for type 1 diabetes announced
>fatties immediately rush walmart and consume 30% their bodyweight in sugar

Cure for diseases 2030-2035 >gene editing

When we can actually put real money and research into it.

fuck makes me realize why i was told i'd never amount to anything in biochem.

thats a hair transplant and right now hair transplants are limited by your donor zone. even Musk, if he keeps balding, will run out of hair in the donor zone.

we need to be able to clone hair follicles NOW.

Current antiretrovirals can keep HIV blood concentration at negligible levels, to the point that carriers are no longer infectious.

Type 1 is not due to being fat.
Also, would a type 1 cure act as a cure for type 2?

There is a new drug against hemophilia that seems reaally promising.
you check martin shkreli's youtube page for more info on that.
