Cystinuria is in the News!

Congratulations to Dr. Goldfarb, et al, for their combined research leading to the discovery of two different cystine growth inhibitors. These new growth inhibitors not only keep cystine molecules from binding, it is said that new treatments containing these inhibitors will be free from side-effects. This is wonderful news for cystinuria patients!
