Cytori Stem Cell Platform Expands

Last week I wrote about the many potentials of Cytori Therapeutic's Celution system that extracts stem and other regenerative cells from a patient's own fat cells. Today, the potential for the expansion of the platform to treat gum disease was highlighted in pre-clinical study results released in a press release from Cytori. The results suggest that the use of uncultured fat derived regenerative cells significantly improved the effects of periodontal disease, evidenced by significantly improved alveolar bone healing and decreased gingival (gum) invasion of the defect.

Of course, this data is pre-clinical in nature and must pass clinicical trials in humans. However, it illustrates my underlying investment thesis on the vast potential of Cytori's PLATFORM:

ONE MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY-----> MULTIPLE POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS

I expect more positive data over the next six months and believe the stock will react positively.

These are the personal views of The Sirtuin Investor. Do your own due diligence.
