LAST FALL, Democratic National Chairman Paul G. Kirk Jr. '60 and his cadre of politicos at the Democratic National Committee put together a new "Policy Commission" to inject some excitement into their moribund party. The mandate of this fearsome phalanx was to hunt down some New Ideas and forge them in the Great Democratic Furnace. The desired result? A new image for the Democratic Party...
...found potential guided-missile cells called T lymphocytes in tumor tissue removed from the mice. They minced the tumor, added IL-2, and soon a whole colony of the anticancer cells -- called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes -- were thriving while the cancer cells were dying out. After 15 days, the researchers injected millions of TIL cells back into the mice. The cells, as if by instinct, sought out the tumors that had spread from the original cancer and attacked them. To keep the TIL cells vigorous and growing, the NCI team had to inject the mice with additional IL-2, but only...

...blood cells that carry oxygen, help to cause clotting and provide immunity against disease. Victims of damaged marrow can die within weeks of severe anemia, hemorrhaging and infection. To transplant the tissue, physicians use a syringe to draw out healthy marrow--usually from a donor's hipbone--and inject it into the patient's bloodstream. The marrow cells make their way naturally to the interior regions of bones. For the procedure to succeed, the tissue of the donor and the patient must match exactly, or the donated cells must be treated to make them compatible. In Moscow, all the donors...
