It's a nice potential discovery and I think it was a great idea to write to the researchers to generate some interest in turbinate tissue.  It's important to keep in mind, though, that this was just at the early experimental stages.  For example, note that they're talking about using the stem cells to repair tissue in mice, not humans. I don't think these researchers intend to use it in humans very soon.  I don't mean to discourage you; there is reason to have hope that these technologies will come to fruition.  And it's posssible that doctors elsewhere will start to experiment with this AZA compound in humans a bit sooner, so perhaps we will have opportunities to try it before too long.  But it's important to have realistic expectations about how much work/time it might take to find a cure.  That way, we can keep at it without being discouraged by the inevitable setbacks.
