        The article in your link appears to be incomplete — at last on my computer it does.

        I did some more research and found a plain-English article published by Stanford University on CD47. It sounds promising at least for the lab mice they tested it on. But I think it'll be a while before it'll become available for human use.

            This stuff is always interesting, but I can't tell you the number of times something works in a lab and doesn't translate into an actual human therapy.  This board's archives list many of them posted over the years.
