Your Global Leader in Stem Cell Market Research
There’s no one exactly like you.
You know this is true, but it’s actually scientifically accurate. There is no one who has the exact same DNA as you do, though everyone in the world comes close. In fact, research shows that human beings share a genetic makeup that is 99.9% identical. [Read more…]
HOUSTON, May 21, 2020 — FibroGenesis announced significant efficacy of its PneumoBlast™ product in an animal model of lung inflammation which resembles COVID-19. Mice immune systems were stimulated to enter hyper-activation mode, which causes symptoms similar to COVID-19. Once COVID-19 simulation was achieved, administration of PneumoBlast™ resulted in significant reduction in lung fluid accumulation. Additionally, reduction was observed from infiltration of inflammatory cells, as well as suppression of chemical mediators such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), which are associated with poor survival in COVID-19 patients.

Immunicum AB (publ; IMMU.ST) has received and FDA Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation for the Company’s lead product candidate, ilixadencel, a cell-based, off-the-shelf immune primer for the treatment of metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma (mRCC). [Read more…]
Chimeric antigen receptor-modified T (CAR-T) cells are living therapies that are genetically engineered to express CAR molecules targeting antigens found on tumor cells or target cells of interest. Unfortunately, an obstacle for the field of CAR-T cell therapy is limited CAR T cell persistence after infusion into cancer patients. Thus, genetic engineering strategies to improve CAR T cell persistence will be central to the success of these gene-modified cellular therapies. [Read more…]
