Subject: Multiple Sclerosis February 24, 2003 RE: Multiple Sclerosis Drug Under Development I found you in the Multiple Sclerosis newsgroup and would like to discuss a new drug in development that has been featured in Time Magazine. Nutra Pharma (NPHC.OB) recently acquired Phylomed (also known as Bio Therapeutics) in order to continue the development of Immunokine, a promising MS drug based on cobra-toxin. Please click on the following link to view research report: Nutra Pharma Research Report Potions from Poisons Looking for new drugs in unusual places BY ANDREA DORFMAN If you're prospecting for new drugs in nature — which scientists continue to do, with or without the genome — there's no better place to start than the business end of a good poisonous plant or animal. Modern medicine is filled with drugs derived from deadly poisons, from the muscle relaxant curare (taken from South American vines that are used to poison arrow tips) to the anticoagulant Aggrastat (based on the venom of the saw-scaled viper). The potency of these compounds is no accident. After all, each is part of an organism's defense and predatory mechanisms, whose specificity has been honed over millions of years of evolution. Animal venoms make particularly good sources of potential drugs because they are designed to kill or immobilize prey. Many contain dozens or even hundreds of potent, fast-acting toxins that home in on the muscles and nervous system. The molecules also tend to be small, which means they can easily slip across the blood-brain barrier, the network of tiny vessels in the brain that blocks larger compounds. Poisonous snakes, spiders, scorpions and frogs have so far attracted the most scrutiny, but insects and marine creatures are also rich sources of potent compounds. Here's a taste of what's going on in the field. Thailand (Monocled) Cobra The Thailand cobra, which can grow to more than 6 ft., is armed with venom that paralyzes nerves and muscles and eventually causes respiratory arrest. For the past 10 years, PhyloMed Corp., of Plantation, Fla., and the Bahamian firm Coral Pharmaceuticals have been conducting clinical trials of Immunokine, a drug derived from Thailand cobra venom, on people with multiple sclerosis. Virtually nontoxic, Immunokine seems to prevent immune cells from attacking and destroying the myelin sheath that protects nerve cells. So far, the results are encouraging. The drug works best on people with the least nerve damage; its only apparent side effect is that it exacerbates pms in some women. PhyloMed hopes to launch a more advanced clinical trial on Canadian MS patients early this year. Meanwhile, a British researcher has just begun testing the drug's effectiveness against adrenomyeloneuropathy, another debilitating central-nervous-system disorder.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Hi, I've worked, along with Dr. Jerome Hall (the macrobiotic doctor), with several cases of MS, treating with macrobiotic food, shiatsu massage and moxa. I've seen wonders happen and, Jerome has told me how he managed to get people out of the wheel chair (before I met him).
