Can MicroRNA Reverse Heart Disease? [View article]
1) the mouse model is just as complex as a pig or dog model, and just as applicable as an indicator of potential human results (where did you get your PhD, anyway?) 2) the current delivery method is the only one that currently works, but that will change sooner or later, i.e. by transfection via an otherwise inert virus. To say that it is a "terrible" drug when it shows such promise is to miss the point. Of course it will be years, even decades, before drugs of this type hit the market. Their potential, though, is astonishing.
