Stem Cell technology platform
----- End of picture text -----

  • Our allogeneic stem cell technology platform allows for the scalable production of offthe-shelf cell products for other potential therapeutic uses

  • Technology underpins both the Progenza and CryoShot product platforms

  • Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are sourced from the adipose (fat) tissue of a healthy donor

  • MSCs are expanded using proprietary technology – demonstrated capacity to produce millions of doses from 1 donor

  • Progenza MSCs are cryopreserved in cell secretions to optimise viability and functionality

Secretions - drivers of therapeutic effect
----- End of picture text -----

  • MSCs are found in adipose tissue in much greater numbers than other tissue types e.g. bone marrow, blood

  • MSCs can differentiate into other cell types

  • MSCs respond to signals associated with tissue damage

  • MSCs have immune privileges

  • MSCs secrete a diverse variety of bioactive factors including cytokines, and growth factors that respond to the local environment and are responsible for reducing inflammation, promoting tissue repair and reducing scarring

  • Secretions are the drivers of MSCs therapeutic effect
