Discussion of a Recent Paper on Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis:
... This paper suggests that the T cell invasion is, after all, the cause of sIBM—a conclusion that opens up new lines of research that could lead to new forms of treatment. The results also suggest possible new directions for sIBM diagnosis that involve blood tests rather than muscle biopsies. The impe ...
