Stem Cell-AIDS Study Shows Genetically Engineered Cells Can Kill HIV In Mice

Unreal.... Dom is so fortunate that he was diagnosed with his cancer during the dawn of Stem Cell Research.  We're absolutely AMAZED!
Can stem cells cure AIDS? Not yet. But a provocative new study shows that human stem cells can be genetically engineered to attack living cells infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
"We believe that this study lays the groundwork for the potential use of this type of an approach in combating HIV infection in infected individuals, in hopes of eradicating the virus from the body," study author Dr. Scott G. Kitchen, assistant professor of medicine at UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine, said in a written statement released by the university.
