**PKTX.. Protokinetix Investors...This is old PR News..But it's to remind you...."How is Success Measured"....

...Dr. Shapiro directs the largest clinical islet transplant program worldwide with many patients treated, and led the clinical team that developed the "Edmonton Protocol" - the first trial to achieve consistent 100% insulin independence in a series of islet-alone transplant recipients with Type 1 diabetes (published in the NEJM 2000).

...Before Dr. Shapiro’s trial, the success rate with islet transplantation was less than 8%. He led an international multicenter trial to replicate these findings in 9 international centers (published in NEJM 2006).

...It was found that by soaking islet cells in AAGP for an hour and then washing it off prior to transplantation, the cells were protected from tacrolimus an antirejection drug commonly used during transplants that is toxic to islets cells.

...Dr. Shapiro and his team have been extensively testing the AAGP™ molecule in allogeneic transplants using human islet cells as the model. As regenerative medicine is rapidly becoming adopted in the treatment of degenerative diseases, the protection of the transplanted cells, tissues, and organs is of paramount importance. Transplanted cells and tissues are subjected to extreme stress factors that, unless protected, could cause failure to graft or premature death.

...The success of the tests conducted in Edmonton have demonstrated that AAGP™ has the potential to be widely adopted in many areas of regenerative medicine.

...If proven successful in human clinical trials, Shapiro believes the inclusion of AAGP could soon become a permanent addition to the Edmonton Protocol representing a significant step forward in the treatment of Type 1 diabetes through islet transplantation.

...This synthetic molecule seems to provide significant protection to cells exposed to multiple deleterious conditions, such as UV radiation, starvation, extreme temperatures andoxidative stress, says Boris Gala-Lopez, lead author of the study and a clinical/research fellow at the U of A's Department of Surgery. We are certainly very excited for the multiple opportunities this finding entails to the field of transplantation research..
