>Anyways, this doesn't exactly jump out to me with applications since the research seems so early stage. The first thing I thought was that starving the cells of sugar could be an effective treatment. Maybe feeding patients something like the ketogenic diet for epileptics (ie lots and lots of heavy cream and not much else esp. not many carbs) would help. A quick pub med search turns up a little bit of work in this area but there might be room for more.
