Could one bioreactor impact the speed of finding a cure for Parkinson’s?
Stem cell research plays a crucial role in potentially finding the cure of Parkinson’s disease. The one problem is: stem cell research still lacks advanced technology and equipment to be able to speed up the process of research for these life alterting cures. The biggest hurdle is the behavior of stem cells in the laboratory and the only solution is to raise the number of high-quality adult stem cells available for the research.
Rainbow BioSciences, the biotech subsidiary of Rainbow Coral Corp is working with Regenetech regarding the potential acquisition of a license to perform cell expansion using Regenetech’s Rotary Cell Culture SystemTM.
“Originally developed by NASA, the Rotary Cell Culture SystemTM is a rotating-wall bioreactor designed to facilitate the growth of human cells in simulated weightlessness. Cell cultures, including stem cells, grown inside the bioreactor look and function much closer to human cells grown within the body than the flat cell cultures grown in Petri dishes” stated a recent article on DailyFinance.com.
Rainbow BioSciences could then bring this bioreactor to the emerging research markets where stem cell research faces fewer roadblocks by regulatory agencies, and help bring billions of dollars worth of research into possible cures for Parkinson’s and other neurological disorders.
