Over 3,000 international and domestic companies have registered to attend the meeting, held in San Diego, USA, from across the international biotech industry.
Carocell Bio recently received approval from the UK’s Health Research Authority (HRA) to test it’s proprietary peptide JEL3108 in human burns and reconstructive surgery tissue samples. The company is focused on the topical application of its proprietary peptides, originally discovered at AstraZeneca, that target the body’s intracellular inflammation cascade via MAPKi, to inhibit MAPK which is a pivotal enzyme in pathways critical to the body’s inflammatory response. To-date, the company has received over USD $450,000 (GBP £370,000) in funding from Innovate UK to study the effect of the peptides in burns, in addition to USD $500,000 (approx. GBP £400,000) seed investment from Deepbridge Capital.
