American CryoStem and Protein Genomics Sign Collaboration to Develop Stem Cell Applications for Wound Healing

April 26, 2012

RED BANK, NJ–(Marketwire – Apr 5, 2012) – American CryoStem Corporation (OTCQB: CRYO) a Life Sciences company developing consumer and commercial products and services for adipose derived adult stem cell applications, and privately-held Protein Genomics (PGen), a developer and manufacturer of unique products for the biotechnology industry, announced today a collaborative agreement to develop novel cellular therapies for the wound healing, regenerative and cellular therapy markets. American CryoStem will contribute certain intellectual property, know-how and trade secrets including clinically prepared adipose derived stem cells using the Company’s proprietary tissue processing and the Company’s patented stromal cell culture media. PGen will contribute certain know-how and trade secrets including its patented, Elastatropin® human based protein. The Companies will initially focus their ongoing efforts towards creating applications for injuries and conditions that are difficult to treat, such as chronic, acute and traumatic wounds with estimated costs of care in excess of $35 billion per year.

“We anticipate that the combination of American CryoStem’s patented technology with PGen’s intellectual property will create tremendous opportunities in the medical device and wound healing markets. Our mutual goal is to create unique, high performance applications for the rapidly growing regenerative medicine market,” says Burt Ensley PhD., PGen’s CEO.
