MIAMI, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 23, 2024 / Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: TELO), or the "Company", an emerging leader in age-reversal science, today announced significant findings from its copper binding studies with Telomir-1. This is a promising development as the company explores Telomir-1 for the treatment of Wilson's disease and other copper related disorders. The announcement marks an important step forward in Telomir's mission to address critical unmet medical needs while continuing to explore transformative therapies.
Key Findings
Recent preclinical in vitro studies conducted by Recipharm and Smart Assays have demonstrated Telomir-1's exceptional binding affinity for copper ions, highlighting its ability to selectively interact with and regulate copper metabolism. Additionally, Telomir-1's capability to bind and exchange key ions, including copper, iron, and zinc, emphasizes its unique profile and positions it as a promising candidate for further research. These findings form a strong foundation for investigating Telomir-1's potential in addressing Wilson's disease, a rare genetic disorder characterized by excessive copper accumulation that can result in significant damage to the liver, brain, and other vital organs.
