Apollo's human proteins boost stem cell research

itute of Medical Research said that Apollo's range of human cell-expressed proteins exhibit enhanced activity compared with those produced in non-human systems, suggesting that they will be of great value in stem cell research.

"Ultimately this technology could lead to novel treatments for important human diseases such as diabetes and heart disease," he said.

Professor Alan Trounson from Monash University's Immunology and Stem Cell Laboratories and a member of Apollo's Scientific Advisory Panel said the synthesis of proteins from human cells is of vital importance for other areas of research, especially in investigations concerning human diseases.

"Using proteins from non-human sources to research human diseases is not as biologically relevant as using human proteins. Medical research is complex on its own right and removing obstacles will increase the chances of unique discoveries," he said.
