TAMPA, FL ("Nanobac" or "the Company") announces publication in
the International Journal of Nanomedicine research that scientists
from the University of California San Francisco collaborating with
Nanobac scientists at NASA's Johnson Space Center have concluded
demonstrating that calcium deposits in the human kidney called
Randall's Plaque may in fact be Calcifying Nano Particles (CNPs,
also referred to as nanobacteria) which lead to the formation of
Kidney Stones.
The study, led by Marshall Stoller M.D. of UCSF and Neva
Ciftcioglu, formerly Nanobac's Director of Science at NASA Johnson
Space Center, found that CNPs were identified and cultured from
Randall's Plaques and detected by Nanobac's proprietary
diagnostics. This could represent potential new early diagnosis and
treatment opportunities for patients who suffer from Kidney
Stones.
Dr. Olavi Kajander, Nanobac's Chief Research and Science
Officer, stated: "A strong link was found between the presence of
Randall's Plaques and the detection of CNPs. These results suggest
new insights into the etiology of Randall's Plaque formation, and
will help us understand the pathogenesis of stone formation.
Further studies on this topic may lead to new approaches on early
diagnosis and novel medical therapies of kidney stone
formation."
