Shielding Normal Cells, Precisely Targeting Cancer Cells!
Safeguarding normal cells from treatments and make them work selectively for cancer cells onlythrough a targeting technology.
We achieve it for patients with our technology “ A priori Activation of Apoptosis Pathways of Tumor” (AAAPT).
Chemotherapy can be an effective cancer treatment, but it may also harm healthy cells, including stem cells. To mitigate this risk, our technology can be used to target tumor cells while protecting healthy stem cells.
AAAPT Technology refers to ” A Priori Activation of Apoptosis Pathways of Tumor” which prepares non-responding cancer cells to induce cell death by the current treatments. In the absence of AAAPT, cancer stem cells (CSCs) and cancer resistant cells (CRCs) will escape cell death and make the treatments ineffective and raises side effects. AAAPT is designed to target cancer cells while sparing normal cells. It works by activating specific cell death pathways and inhibiting survival pathways in cancer cells. Our research has shown that using AAAPT in combination with doxorubicin can sensitize various types of cancer cells and reduce the amount of doxorubicin needed in vitro. At higher doses, AAAPT can also act as an anti-tumor agent on its own. This study suggests that AAAPT could be used as a neoadjuvant to chemotherapy to enhance its efficacy and reduce off-target toxicity when used in conjunction with doxorubicin.
