Rituximab and MS - a quick question

[Persimmon]

Can anyone point me to a particular article I've seen on the internet?

If I've remembered correctly, it told the story of the pair of English researchers who first proposed that B-cells rather than T-cells might be the key to MS. I think they were trying to get the medical community to pay attention to their novel finding that Rituximab offered a very promising approach to MS treatment, but that no-one would listen.

Is it this?

Good luck!

No, that's not it, but thanks for trying.

I agree, it's an excellent story. i read it several times so that's why I was able to know it was the article you were referring to. Pass it on!
