MRPath Inc

http://www.mrpath.com

MRPath was cofounded by Drs. Robert Lontz and G. Allan Johnson. The MRPath president, Dr. Lontz previously served as Chief Executive Officer of Magnetic Imaging Technologies Incorporated. Dr. G. Allan Johnson is the Professor of Radiology and Physics and Director of the Center for In Vivo Microscopy at the Duke University Medical Center. Much of the technology of MRPath is inspired by magnetic resonance (MR) techniques developed under National Institutes of Health research awards. These include a grant from the National Cancer Institute to develop a reference of high resolution mouse MRI (The Visible Mouse); and applications of MR imaging for rodent teratology, neurotoxicology, and In Vivo studies for the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. The MRPath founders were initially motivated by a desire to make available a heretofore expensive and specialized imaging capability to a broad community of users in research and industry. In addition to special expertise in MR microscopy, the company offers other imaging modalities, the management of image intense databases, and their integration within protocols and studies. This experience led to the creation of a software product line, which addresses many of the problems in scientific image management. MRPath is the second biotechnology startup for Drs.

SerOptix Inc

http://www.seroptix.com

SerOptix Inc is a research and development-based biotechnology company located in Woburn, Massachusetts. Biotechnology in the post-genomic era has seen the refocusing of informatics technology onto molecular discovery and molecular signature analysis of human disease. The pharmaceutical industry has already recognized the value of molecular target identification as evidenced by recent multi hundred million dollar deals in this sector. SerOptix has established proprietary technologies and systems for molecular target discovery through identification of unique disease signatures based on the intrinsic fluorescence properties of disease-related molecules. Although disease-specific fluorescent signatures can be partly or completely obscured by molecules common to all individuals, preclinical studies at SerOptix have demonstrated methods designed to fractionate and selectively measure "fluorophore" populations. Our platform technology "Spectra-Molecular Informatics" or 'SMI,' encompasses these advances through a combination of spectroscopy, biochemistry and informatics. The Company has successfully exploited this technology to demonstrate the applicability of the intrinsic fluorescence spectra-molecular signatures for diagnostics and for the identification of disease-specific molecular targets. SerOptix is building on this initial development to integrate its novel molecular profiling tools, the INFLIT systems with its comprehensive SMI platform. The combined technology will be focused on a broad set of proprietary and pharmaceutical industry-sponsored programs for molecular target identification for drug discovery and diagnostic development efforts. The Company is continuing to build its technology portfolio to further enhance the power of its Spectra-Molecular-Informatics Platform to efficiently extract high value knowledge from fluorescence-based molecular profiling, and support novel drug discovery and diagnostics development. The Company foresees near term revenue from partner sponsored studies, and the licensing of early stage SMI results. SerOptix is raising capital to rapidly build business opportunities based on this technology. Our business model, projects profitability within a short time frame, and sustainable growth in subsequent years from multiple R&D partnerships and the later stage outlicensing of proprietary programs. The Company plans to execute the following strategy: Integrate novel INFLIT instrumentation and INFLIT systems with the core SMI platform and establish intellectual property protection for this new technology. Exploit these technologies for revenue, obtained through marketing partnerships with instrument and systems providers to meet their critical client needs in functional genomics, labile product analysis and other biotechnology and product assurance applications. Utilize this foundation to engineer an enhanced and comprehensive SMI platform based on intrinsic fluorescence and complete the development and establishment of a proprietary normal database of Spectra-Molecular signatures and complement the Company's discovery paradigms with subscription-based revenue built on the value of its proprietary databases Direct the power of SMI and its database to the identification of disease candidates, including specific degenerative & metabolic diseases and cancers in order to define disease-specific molecular targets for licensing and co-development with corporate partners. Develop selected SMI applications to advance high value drug discovery and diagnostic projects funded by industry partners. Receive with enhanced revenues based on client validation and leverage successful partnerships to increase future project revenues. Expand the research and development capacity of the Company and to enhance SerOptix' ability to participate in government sponsored R&D initiatives by establishing academic partnerships through SerOptix-sponsored SMI research programs. Continue to aggressively build an intellectual property portfolio that protects the Company's innovations. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has already issued the company two patents and additional U.S. applications covering specific methodologies and applications of the SMI Platform are being pursued.

RiboGene , Inc.

http://www.ribogene.com

RiboGene, Inc. is a drug discovery company focused on the identification of novel leads and the development of potential drug candidates for the treatment of infectious diseases. The Company's drug discovery efforts target bacterial, fungal and viral infections for which the efficacy of existing therapies is being threatened by the emergence of drug resistance or for which existing therapies have had limited effectiveness. The Company's drug discovery technology is based on the translational control of gene expression. The Company is using its platform technology to discover compounds that inhibit or interfere with pathogen specific translation. To compliment its drug discovery efforts, the Company also seeks to in-license or acquire compounds with demonstrated activity relevant to certain therapeutic targets. Consistent with this strategy, the Company acquired Emitasol, an intranasal form of metoclopramide. (Source: 10-K405)

Exponential Biotherapies , Inc.

http://www.expobio.com

EBI's primary target market is a group of disorders commonly known as the systemic inflammatory response syndrome ("SIRS"), including the clinical condition known as sepsis. Of the various inflammatory disorders, sepsis causes the greatest negative economic and medical consequences. It is the leading cause of death in hospital intensive care units worldwide, costing the US healthcare system an estimated $18 billion per year, and causing 1,400 deaths per day in the developed countries of the world. In SIRS/sepsis the body's immune system overreacts to an infection or other stress leading to severe organ damage and death. SIRS acts by triggering a series of chemical reactions in the body in a sequential, cascade,like process. In many cases, uncontrolled cascades result in death. The goal of the Company's therapeutic development initiative is to modulate the sequence of reactions in the immune cascade with patented small molecule sub-fractions of human hormones that attenuate an uncontrolled immune response. Our drug candidates have additional clinical applications involving similar inflammatory pathologies involved in radiation sickness, renal failure, avian flu and anthrax infections. EA-230 has completed Phase I single and multi-dose clinical trials including the Phase I expansion, LPS Proof of Concept, without material adverse reactions and the Company is currently preparing for Phase II clinical trials.
