RNA interference to block inflammation

Scientists and researchers at Mass General and MIT may have found a way to block damaging inflammation that leads to many disease conditions, in an animal model.  They have found that by using small interfering RNA technology, they can silence the biochemical signs that attract a particular group of inflammatory cells.  This is a huge breakthrough and would help exponentially if it could possibly work on humans.
