The data, which was obtained using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), indicates that NR2F6 may have a larger biological role than originally suspected.
Regen BioPharma, Inc. has been utilizing NR2F6 as a target for immune modulation and cancer stem cells. To the Company's knowledge, this is the first indication to date that NR2F6 is involved in the formation of new blood vessels.
Thomas Ichim, PhD, co-inventor of the patent and consultant to the Company. "In our experiments, we observed that inhibition of NR2F6 selectively blocked multiplication of blood vessel cells that were stimulated with Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Since VEGF is associated with disease conditions, it is possible that our approach possesses some degree of specificity in blocking pathological but not healthy formation of new blood vessels. New blood vessels suggests that this approach may not suppress healthy blood vessels which are primarily formed independently of VEGF."' data-reactid="14">"New blood vessels are typically not formed in an adult except in conditions such as cancer (in which the tumor cells require a new blood supply) or in wet macular degeneration; a condition in which new blood vessels result in impairment of vision," said Thomas Ichim, PhD, co-inventor of the patent and consultant to the Company.

Its cheap af, so I have over a million shares here. When AMRN gets over $20, I prolly stop buying and start building up RGBP again. They are still in Phase 1/2, so its def a long term play, but I don't mind the risk. They recently announced some shyt reducing, or preventing RI.
