Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a global health burden characterized by persistent airflow limitation and progressive lung damage. Despite extensive research, translating findings from bench to bedside remains a challenge. Precision Cut Lung Slices (PCLS) have emerged as a versatile tool in COPD research, offering unique advantages for understanding disease mechanisms and ...
YM7555 delivers both genes, which code for the ABeta and TAU, to muscle cells where the corresponding peptide is then made. The immune system of the individual receiving the genes and making the peptides then makes antibodies against the peptides. ...
CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own (autologous) bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure. The therapy incorporates a pre-procedural screening assay to identify patients who may be likely responders, a first for a cardiac cell therapy designed to enhance patient selection. Eligible ...
The 2021 class of Leonhardt’s Launchpads Accelerator graduates include: MyoStim ED with ErectiStimTM: MyoStim ED is the first intervention for erectile dysfunction (ED) designed to address all major causes of ED: impaired blood flow, damaged blood vessels, nerve damage, and muscle deterioration. MyoStim ED utilizes non-invasive bioelectric stimulation sequences designed ...
RepliCel is currently preparing for the clinical testing and commercialization of three more technologies in Japan. These include two cell therapies - one for skin rejuvenation and one for tendon regeneration - and a next-generation dermal injector (DermaPrecise™) for aesthetic treatments involving a wide variety of injectable substances including cells, ...
[Nasdaq: BCDA] a company focused on developing cellular and cell derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced the treatment of the first patient in its Phase III pivotal CardiAMP Cell Therapy Chronic Myocardial Ischemia Trial for patients with no option chronic myocardial ischemia with refractory angina. ...
The Company’s team in Tokyo includes industry advisors CJ Partners, clinical research organization Accerise, Professor Akimichi Morita of Nagoya City University Hospital, and Professor Tsukasa Kumai of Waseda University all contributing to RepliCel’s clinical development and commercialization plans for its tissue regeneration cell therapy product portfolio in Japan. ...
In patients with anti-acetylcholine receptor (AchR) antibody-positive MG, the body’s own immune system over-responds, leading the body to attack its own healthy cells and produce antibodies to fight against AchR, a receptor located on muscle cells at the neuromuscular junction. As a result, communication between the nerves and ...
“There are hundreds of millions of people worldwide that suffer from degenerative cardiovascular disease where the root cause is the loss of healthy heart muscle cells, and where medical treatment options are limited. BlueRock’s authentic cellular therapy is a novel approach that has the potential to transform the lives of patients, but will require ...
During those years we developed intervascular lung catheter, a radiation delivery catheter, and we patented the first stem cell delivery catheter, PROCELL, that we designed to deliver stem cells to damage heart tissue. ...
IBM is an autoimmune condition in which cytotoxic T cells attack muscle. Patients suffering from IBM have no reliably effective drug treatments currently available to them. This therapeutic will also be investigated for the treatment of PBC, an autoimmune condition in which pathogenic T cells attack bile ducts. While treatments addressing ...
Uterine fibroids are clusters of muscle cells that grow faster than their neighbors. As many as 80 percent of women will develop uterine fibroids by age 50, but most experience no symptoms. ...
When compared with monotherapy, the combination therapy increased densities of key blood vessels, arteries, and smooth muscle cells in vascular walls. “HUCBCs are a source for blood stem cells, endothelial cell precursors, mensenchymal cell progenitors, and other multipotent and pluripotent stem ...
In "test tube" experiments, triclosan impaired the ability of isolated heart muscle cells and skeletal muscle fibers to contract. Specifically, the team evaluated the effects of triclosan on molecular channels in muscle cells that control the flow of calcium ions, creating muscle contractions. ...
