UofL is on to something

[HagginHall1999]

"University of Louisville researchers have developed a technology that is believed to block the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells.

The technology is based on a piece of synthetic DNA – an “aptamer” – which targets and binds with a human protein called nucleolin. Early tests show that this aptamer may stop viruses, including novel coronavirus, from “hijacking” nucleolin to replicate inside the body.

UofL is seeking to fast-track development, including application to the Food and Drug Administration for approval to start treating patients seriously affected with COVID-19."

Maybe since Rick and all the hookers were there UL has a lot of experience containing viruses

I initially misread thread title as "UofL is on something" and thought, Ruh Roh, here we go again with another bash-the-Cards pile-on.

Doc beat me to it. They are proven cutting edge on restaurant sanitation and was headed in the same direction with many funks coming from minardi hall..When the funk is in your backyard, you should be first in treatment. And BTW. **** U6.

I hate UL athletics but I’ll celebrate the hell out of these boys if they can get this done. I’ll even let them hang that 2013 banner back up!

that’s going a little too far. Maybe with an asterisk

That 2013 title* is tainted more than the Rona Virus itself.

lets hope A . that it works and B. that its safe and doesnt cause horrible side effects or death....

I hate giving UL any credit but if they help fight viruses.... kudos...

How come NO National attention?

UofL going for the headlines... I'll believe it when I see it.
Because they ain't been too swift seeing **** right under their nose much less a microscope.
