FibroBiologics Files Patent For Novel Approach to Modulate Mitochondrial Activity Using Fibroblast-based Therapeutics
04 Março 2025 - 10:30AM
FibroBiologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: FBLG) ("FibroBiologics”) , a
clinical-stage biotechnology company with 160+ patents issued and
pending with a focus on the development of therapeutics and
potential cures for chronic diseases using fibroblasts and
fibroblast-derived materials, announced the filing of a patent
application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
covering methods employing fibroblasts to improve mitochondrial
performance in cells.
Mitochondria are critical organelles responsible
for cellular energy production via oxidative phosphorylation.
Mitochondrial dysregulation is implicated in aging, and a wide
range of diseases including autoimmune, neurodegenerative,
metabolic, and muscular diseases. Fibroblasts, primary cells for
the secretion and maintenance of connective tissue, secrete
bioactive molecules such as growth factors, cytokines, and
extracellular vesicles that influence cellular
microenvironments.
Modulating mitochondrial function using local or
systemic fibroblast administration, represents a novel method to
address mitochondrial dysregulation—an area of increasing focus in
medical research. This novel approach has the potential to unlock
new treatment options for conditions driven by mitochondrial
dysfunction that contribute to the pathology of many chronic
diseases.
"Using fibroblasts to improve the
microenvironment of the cells by modulating mitochondrial activity
has the potential of fundamentally altering how we treat chronic
diseases, and positively impact human longevity," said Pete
O'Heeron, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of
FibroBiologics.
“There has been growing interest in the research
community around leveraging mitochondria-focused therapies to
address chronic diseases,” said Hamid Khoja, Chief Scientific
Officer of FibroBiologics. “Our approach takes advantage of
fibroblasts’ natural ability to modulate mitochondrial function,
potentially unlocking new therapeutic strategies for the treatment
of multiple chronic diseases.”

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This communication contains "forward-looking statements" as
defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements include information concerning the
potential of fibroblasts to modulate mitochondrial function, to
unlock new treatment options driven by mitochondrial dysfunction,
to alter how chronic disease is treated, and to unlock new
therapeutic strategies for the treatment of multiple chronic
diseases. These forward-looking statements are based on
FibroBiologics' management's current expectations, estimates,
projections and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions
concerning future events. These forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and
involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties,
assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside
FibroBiologics' management's control, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements, including those set forth under the
caption "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in FibroBiologics' annual,
quarterly and current reports (i.e., Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form
8-K) as filed or furnished with the SEC and any subsequent public
filings. Copies are available on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov.
These risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors
include, but are not limited to: (a) risks related to
FibroBiologics' liquidity and its ability to maintain capital
resources sufficient to conduct its business; (b) expectations
regarding the initiation, progress and expected results of our
R&D efforts and preclinical studies; (c) the unpredictable
relationship between R&D and preclinical results and clinical
study results; and (d) the ability of FibroBiologics to
successfully prosecute its patent applications. Forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are
cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements,
and FibroBiologics assumes no obligation and, except as required by
law, does not intend to update, or revise these forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events,
or otherwise. FibroBiologics gives no assurance that it will
achieve its expectations.
