CannabisNewsBreaks – PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) Posts Update on Scorpion Venom-Derived Peptide Program

August 1, 2018 09:59:44

PreveCeutical Medical (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) today issued an update regarding the second phase of its three phase, scorpion venom-derived peptide research and development program. The program consists of identifying, extracting and sequencing peptides and proteins isolated from Caribbean Blue Scorpion venom. The goal of the program is to empower PreveCeutical to produce Nature Identical™ peptide therapeutics to treat, regulate and prevent cancer progression. The company’s initial focus will target glioblastoma, a highly-aggressive form of brain cancer. PreveCeutical has started phase 2 of the program, comprised of re-designing the peptides to enhance their biostability while upholding their potency during screening against well-characterized and defined targets associated with brain cancer. The company’s research team employs advanced computer technology for its in-silico modelling and docking studies against identified brain cancer targets to determine critical structural features and amino acid sequences. Using its proprietary peptide linker technology, PreveCeutical will begin to re-engineer the identified peptides after they are generated from the modelling and docking studies to conserve the structural features responsible for binding and other critical activities. Each novel, uniquely designed Nature Identical™ peptide candidate will then be purified, fully characterized and added to a wide-ranging library of candidates. Upon completion of this phase, PreveCeutical will enter phase 3 and begin screening the peptides in cell-based glioblastoma models.
