On Wednesday, Cytori Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:CYTX)’s shares showed no change to $0.600.
Cytori Therapeutics (CYTX) declared that preclinical and mechanistic data from its thermal injury study, performed with support from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), was published in the journal Burns, the official journal of the American Burn Association. The paper, entitled “Uncultured adipose-derived regenerative cells seeded in collagen scaffold improves dermal regeneration, enhancing early vascularization and structural organization following thermal burns” (Foubert P and coll. Published online: June 7, 2015 | DOI: 10.1016/j.burns.2015.05.004), is now accessible online [http://www.burnsjournal.com/article/S0305-4179(15)00132-1/abstract] and expands upon data presented earlier this year at the American Burn Association meeting.
This paper reports that seeding Cytori Cell Therapy™ onto a widely used dermal substitute led to improvement in a number of parameters of healing of full thickness burns. Specifically, histopathological assessment demonstrated that the average depth of tissue within the wound was raised by about 2-fold in animals treated with Cytori Cell Therapy. This was associated with an enhance in collagen deposition (1.7-fold), blood vessel density (1.5-fold), and mean vessel area (1.8-fold). Immunohistochemical analysis revealed an enhance in the number of vessels expressing α-SMA (a marker for mature blood vessels) in animals treated with Cytori’s Cell Therapy. Taken together, these results demonstrate that seeding Cytori Cell Therapy onto this scaffold promotes blood vessel maturation. Finally, the findings showed raised vascularity (1.5-fold) and cellularity (1.45-fold) of the dermal substitute itself.
