15.5.2019 16:20:11 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
SpinalCyte, LLC, a clinical stage regenerative medicine company focused on regrowth of the spinal disc using Human Dermal Fibroblasts (HDFs), today announced a new comprehensive resource to raise awareness of the potential benefits of fibroblasts and provide a growing knowledge base for this promising regenerative medicine technology.
The company’s website, www.spinalcyte.com , now features company and independent research studies demonstrating the potential of this new cell source for disc repair and other disease pathways.
“Fibroblasts hold significant advantages over mesenchymal stem cells,” said Dr. Thomas Ichim, Chief Scientific Officer of SpinalCyte and author of an analysis comparing the two cell sources published in the Journal of Translational Medicine . “As we and other leading researchers continue to advance the science in this field, our website will be the best place to find the latest and most up-to-date information on the healing power of fibroblasts.”
SpinalCyte is the leader in the field of HDF therapy with 52 U.S. and international patents issued and 85+ patents pending focused on the clinical utility of fibroblasts.
“Fibroblasts are the regenerative cell source of the future,” said Pete O’Heeron, Chief Executive Officer of SpinalCyte. “The breadth of our intellectual property demonstrates the versatility of this technology and positions us as the unquestioned frontrunner in this emerging sector. We look forward to presenting new research from around the globe highlighting the promise of fibroblasts.”
About Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a condition in which a patient’s spinal disc breaks down and can begin to collapse. It is estimated that 85% of people over the age of 50 have evidence of disc degeneration and over 1.3 million procedures a year are performed to treat the disease. The most common treatments for patients with DDD are either discectomy or spinal fusion. Discectomy is the partial or full removal of the degenerated disc to decompress and relieve the nervous system but can cause long term spinal pain. In a spinal fusion procedure, the entire disc is removed and the two adjacent vertebrae are fused together. It often increases strain on the adjacent discs and surrounding tissues leading to further degeneration.
About CybroCell
CybroCell is the first off-the-shelf allogenic human dermal fibroblast (HDF) product for the treatment of degenerative disc disease. SpinalCyte’s Phase 1/Phase 2 clinical trial for injected human dermal fibroblasts in the treatment of DDD demonstrated after 18 months, patients injected with CybroCell had sustained improvement in pain relief and increased back mobility.
About SpinalCyte
Based in Houston, Texas, SpinalCyte, LLC, is a regenerative medicine company developing an innovative solution for spinal disc replacement using human dermal fibroblasts. Currently, SpinalCyte holds 52 U.S. and international issued patents and has filed for an additional 85+ patents pending and issued across a variety of clinical pathways, including disc degeneration, cancer, diabetes, liver failure and heart failure. SpinalCyte represents the next generation of medical advancement in cell therapy. Visit www.spinalcyte.com .

MTG-I2 is in perfect shape to start its Launch and Early Operations Phase that will bring it to a higher orbit, 36 000km above Earth over the following two weeks, where a longer period of calibration and validation of its instruments will begin. This summer’s extreme weather and wildfires hav
New Daiichi Sankyo Data Underscore the Effect of Bempedoic Acid in the Real-World Management of Dyslipidemia and Cardiovascular risk28.8.2026 10:00:00 CEST | Press release
Analyses from the multinational MILOS study show that LDL-C reductions achieved with up to one year of treatment with bempedoic acid-containing therapies translate to a 17.1% relative reduction and a 4.8% absolute reduction in predicted 10-year cardiovascular risk.1 Real-world data demonstrated clinically relevant mean LDL-C reductions of at least 24.9%, regardless of patient gender or glycaemic status, after one year of follow-up.2,3 Findings presented at ESC Congress 2026 reinforce the clinical value of bempedoic acid in routine clinical practice, and demonstrate the continued investment of Daiichi Sankyo in addressing outstanding unmet needs in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Daiichi Sankyo (TSE:4568) today announced new results from the MILOS study that demonstrate the real-world impact of bempedoic acid administered either alone or as a fixed-dose combination with ezetimibe, in the management of dyslipidaemia. Presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2026 in Munich,
