those caused by influenza virus), autoimmune
disorders, certain medications (including most cytotoxic chemotherapy),
radiation and bone marrow diseases such as leukemia or myelodysplastic
syndromes. Replenishment of leukocytes at early time periods following
irradiation could result from proliferation and maturation of a
pluripotential stem cell subset that is protected from the damaging effect
of radiation. Further studies are in process to delineate the mechanism of
leukocyte replenishment.
About TGen
The Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), a non-profit
501(c)(3) organization, is focused on developing earlier diagnostics and
smarter treatments. Translational genomics research is a relatively new
field employing innovative advances arising from the Human Genome Project
and applying them to the development of diagnostics, prognostics and
therapies for cancer, neurological disorders, diabetes and other complex
diseases. TGen's research is based on personalized medicine and the
institute plans to accomplish its goals through robust and disease-focused
research.
About Radilex(TM) and Viprovex(R)
Radilex(TM) is the trade name used in referring to formulations of
Homspera(TM) for potential indications for treatment of exposure to
ionizing radiation. Viprovex(R) is the trade name used in referring to
formulations of Homspera(TM) for potential indications for treatment of
viral and bacterial infections. Homspera(TM) is a generic name used by the
Company to describe the synthetic peptide Sar9, Met (O2)11-Substance P.
Sar9, Met (O2)11-Substance P is an analog of the naturally occurring human
neuropeptide Substance P, which can be found throughout the body, including
in the airways of humans and many other species. All of the Company's
research and development efforts are early, pre-clinical stage and
Homspera(TM), as Viprovex(R) and Radilex(TM), has only undergone
exploratory studies to evaluate its biological activity in small animals.<
