2010-02-27 EnGene Inc. to Present Research Data on EG-10 for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)EnGenes technology, Gut Epithelial cell Modification System (GEMS), utilizes the protein (or drug) production capacity of the patients existing, normal, healthy cells in the gastrointestinal tract by delivering a gene construct which, when taken up by the cells, instructs them to produce and release the therapeutic drug. The first applications of GEMS1 are focused on inducing normal, healthy cells in the intestinal tract to act as surrogates in the production of several key therapeutic proteins to treat several prevalent autoimmune and gastrointestinal disorders, including diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease. Other potential near-term applications for GEMS1 include celiac disease, obesity, anemia and hemophilia.
