Reseveratrol...is a compound found largely in the skins of red grapes and is a phytalexin produced by several plants that is sold as a nutritional supplement and is readily available at your natural paths office. They use it as a anti cancer agent. Plants produce the phytoalexin as a defense against fungal growth as a protective buffer. Esperion is a company that was bought by Pfizer because they working with a treatment ustilizing these phytalexins as a artery cleaning agent offered through a IV solution. Hence the inclusion of thier founder on Reverlogix board. The problem with this treatment is that is both expensive and time consuming. Hence Resverlogix, if they can produce the same increase in HDL through a less combersome approach then Pfizer has to be interested. Esperion was bought by Pfizer in 2004 for I think 1.3 Billion. Hence the need for someone to do the necessary clinical trials. cheers rythman
