THE REGENERATIVE RESEARCH FOUNDATION CONTINUES ITS DEDICATION TO ENHANCING THE SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF STEM CELLS THROUGH BASIC LABORATORY RESEARCH AND APPLYING THIS KNOWLEDGE TO DEVELOP THERAPIES TO TREAT AND CURE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES INCLUDING SPINAL CORD INJURY, BRAIN DISORDERS, AND RETINAL EYE DISEASE. IN 2019 FOUNDATION INVESTIGATORS PUBLISHED FIVE ARTICLES IN RESPECTED SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS, REPORTING THE RESULTS OF FOUNDATION RESEARCH STUDIES.

THE FOUNDATION ENTERED INTO A PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WITH A PRIVATE CORPORATION WHICH WILL PROVIDE FUNDING FOR CLINICAL TRIALS OF THIS PROMISING TREATMENT. THE FOUNDATION OWNS A 50% OWNERSHIP OF THE NEWLY FORMED LUXA BIOTECHNOLOGY, LLC (LUXA), WHICH WAS ESTABLISHED IN AUGUST 2019. LUXA WAS FORMED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEVELOPING AND COMMERCIALIZING THE FOUNDATION'S RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION TECHNOLOGY FOR TREATMENT OF OCULAR DISORDERS INCLUDING MACULAR DEGENERATION IN HUMANS.
FOUNDATION RESEARCHERS CONTINUED THEIR INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO A POTENTIAL TREATMENT FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND OTHER TAU RELATED DEMENTIAS. A PATENT FOR THIS NOVEL TREATMENT WAS FILED DURING FISCAL YEAR 2017. THIS RESEARCH WILL EXPAND THE SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESSION OF AD AND OTHER DEMENTIAS AND BENEFIT THE AGING POPULATION.
