SUNRISE, FL--(Marketwire - Dec 4, 2012) - Bioheart Inc. ( OTCQB : BHRT ) previouslyannounced that its cGMP facility would be utilized by Stemlogix to help promote regenerative medicine for the veterinary market.Stemlogix has just announced the first ever combination regenerative medicine treatment on a six-year-old Quarter Reined Cow horse that suffered a significant injury to its distal straight sesamoidean ligament.
"The facilities at Bioheart Inc. are top notch and we are excited to move these new therapies for animals forward using state-of-the-art cGMP laboratories.We are fortunate to have the support and expertise of the Bioheart team," said Jason Griffeth, Chief Operating Officer of Stemlogix, LLC.
To provide him with this groundbreaking treatment, two small fat samples were taken from the base of his tail via a minimally invasive lipoaspirate procedure. Fat tissue is the richest source of stem cells for both human patients and animal patients. One of the tissue samples was processed on-site to provide a same-day, point-of-care stem cell treatment while the other tissue sample was sent to the cGMP laboratory where the mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and expanded for three weeks. A portion of his stem cells were also cryopreserved for future use.
Bioheart's president and CEO, Mike Tomas said, "Bioheart is focused on commercializing cell therapies for cardiac patients and has many years' experience with a variety of different cell types.This partnership allows us to utilize our existing laboratories and expertise to bring these products to the veterinary market."
