Wednesday, April 12, 2023

SEATTLE, April 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sana Biotechnology, Inc. (NASDAQ: SANA), a company focused on changing the possible for patients through engineered cells, today announced that Science Translational Medicine has published a paper titled “Human hypoimmune primary pancreatic islets avoid rejection and autoimmunity and alleviate diabetes in allogeneic humanized mice.” The paper details data from a series of ten in vivo experiments demonstrating the insulin-normalization activity, persistence, immune evasion, and lack of immunogenicity of human hypoimmune-modified islet cells, which cluster into effective endocrine organoids termed “pseudo islets.”

Key Points: 
  • “The Science Translational Medicine paper details data demonstrating that hypoimmune pseudo islets developed with our hypoimmune technology survived and were able to reverse diabetes without any immunosuppression in humanized mice.
  • The survival of the p-islets and their cell composition was assessed in immunocompetent, diabetic allogeneic humanized NSG-SGM3 mice.
  • Wt p-islets could only be recovered on the same day and were fully rejected and dissolved at later time points.
  • To generate a humanized, autoimmune mouse, immune cells and iPSCs were generated from PBMCs collected from a person with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
