  Hi
Could anyone give me some advice, or update me, as to where I can get 
recent information on N.Fasc.? I'm working on a paper concerning the 
above topic, and can find little about what is actually occurring with 
this disease. I do know that it has been around since Hippocrates' time, 
and that there seems to be several combinations of bacteria that result 
in this devestating ailment, but other than that, I can't seem to 
track-down how the various toxins created interact with the surrounding 
tissue. Are there any leaders in this area of research? Can anyone help 
me?
