Here’s another interesting article that appeared in the media today:

“Last year, however, Dr Jonathan Kerr’s team at St George’s, University of London reported differences in the way genes are used in the white blood cells of people with the disease, in studies backed by the CFS Research Foundation.

Research presented at a meeting organised by the foundation last night provides further evidence that, in patients with well-defined symptoms, there are marked changes in how genes are regulated. And Dr Kerr said that, within a year, he will have made the first attempts to use drugs to treat the disease, based on the new understanding of the metabolic pathways affected by the genes. — Roger Highfield, Hope for sufferers of chronic fatigue, Telegraph, 2 March 2006″
