Today Dow Jones had an extensive article on SBH and they did mention the new TZD under development for
Type II diabetes. I've linked it to the merger table at home.att.net
Tomorrow's Science will have an exciting paper on a G-CSF mimic discovered by scientists at SBH and
LGND. I have updated the G-CSF (Neupogen) mimic table at home.att.net to
include links to the press release, abstract of the Science article, commentary in Science, and several upcoming
abstracts.

The current SBH/LGND alliance targets hematopoietic growth factors like Epogen and Neupogen, but recently
Leptin was added to the list of targets and I suspect that the target list will continue to grow.

Tomorrow's paper is a "proof of principle" that can be applied to virtually any polypeptide hormone
(interferons, interleukins, or growth factors) and it is a major event.
