Company Details
Developer of therapeutics solutions for numerous diseases of aging. It offer therapeutics that prevent, halt, and reverse various diseases of aging. Its medicines target vulnerabilities unique to senescent cells to clear those cells from the human body while leaving normal cells unaffected. It has shown that removing senescent cells from animals reverses or prevents many conditions in which senescent cells are implicated, including osteoarthritis, atherosclerosis, eye diseases, and kidney diseases. The company has used a biomarker for senescence, p16(Ink4a), to design a novel transgene, INK-ATTAC, for inducible elimination of p16(Ink4a)-positive senescent cells upon administration of a drug.
