Cytori Therapeutics
From WikiCover
Cytori Therapeutics' goal is to be the global leader in regenerative medicine. The company is dedicated to providing patients with new options for reconstructive surgery, developing treatments for cardiovascular disease, and banking patients' adult stem and regenerative cells. To reach its goal, Cytori is developing its innovative Celution System to separate and concentrate a patient's own adult stem and regenerative cells from adipose (fat) tissue for these cells to be delivered back to the patient during the same surgical procedure. The Celution System will be introduced in 2008 in Europe for reconstructive surgery and launched in Japan for cryopreserving a patient's own stem and regenerative cells. Clinical trials are ongoing or planned in cardiovascular disease, spinal disc degeneration, gastrointestinal disorders, and other unmet medical needs.
