This article discusses a Harvard Medical School study finding that one of the proteins, Copn, released by Cpni during the infection cycle, seems to block the normal cell cycle:
Chemical knockout for Chlamydia
Here's the actual study:
The essential role of the CopN protein in Chlamydia pneumoniae intracellular growth.

Norman, I was just thinking
Norman, I was just thinking that as I read along here.
Tudor that would be much to long for many of us to endure our fate waiting for such research. Not that it won't be helpful but realistically we have what is known now to work with which is more than I had 16 months ago and my life was quite unmanagable back then too. Just 16 months later and I am extremely improved. Always looking for more but better than I have been in more than 10 years!
Red thanks for continuing to build the files of research data here on the site.
I am bringing a disc with the Gillie Expanation and Plan to my MD this week. Going to ask him to supervise advancing me on D3 beyond the 4000IU that I currently take and checking my levels frequently till we find my values at the upper end of the "normally acceptable" lab value range. He loaded me with 6000IU and normally suggested 4000 in the winter and 2000 in the summer. I keep out of the sun most of the time since my doxyi rash experience so I have been on 4000 all summer too. I am hoping to cover two bases, synergistic effect with Abxi on CPni and building bone density. I'll blog about it if he agrees to the agressive ramp up of D3.
Now I think I should find out what this thread is really about.
