Telomir Pharmaceuticals Unveils Promising Preclinical Results for Telomir-1

Telomir Pharmaceuticals has announced promising preclinical results for Telomir-1, a compound showing potential in treating mitochondrial dysfunction. The study, conducted with Smart Assays Biotechnologies, found Telomir-1 restored mitochondrial function in cells with Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome without promoting cell proliferation or oxidative stress.

This effect suggests therapeutic potential in conditions like Parkinson's, ALS, Alzheimer's, and Progeria, where mitochondrial failure is a key issue. Telomir-1 notably improved energy production and reduced reactive oxygen species in diseased cells while sparing healthy fibroblasts, which may offer a safety advantage.

Telomir's CEO, Erez Aminov, highlighted the compound's unique profile, indicating a new approach to disease treatment. The company is advancing towards clinical trials, focusing on selecting diseases where Telomir-1 could deliver significant impact.
