Celavet
Curated by SignalDevelops stem cell therapy for equine animals
Overview
Celavet is a regenerative medicine company developing stem cell-based therapies for the treatment and prevention of orthopedic injuries and diseases in large and small animals. Its proprietary technology is based on the premise that embryonic stem cells are pluripotent and have the capacity to renew damaged tissues. The company is developing stem cells to be non-immunogenic and it claims that its initial studies have not shown rejection of these cells by the transplanted animal. The stem cells for therapy are extracted, processed, and then grown in a specialized media and stored. When required for transplantation, the cells are thawed, reintroduced into the growth media, and shipped to the treating veterinarian on the same day.
