Therapeutic Solutions International (TSOI) announced new data suggesting that therapeutic effects of its universal donor stem cell product are mediated in part through CD103 expressing dendritic cells. In a series of experiments, it was found that protection against both Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) could be transferred to naïve mice by dendritic cells expressing the molecule CD103. Furthermore, exosomes, which are nanoparticles produced by cells, were capable of transferring protection to naïve mice.

Therapeutic Solutions International is currently running a Phase III clinical trial using JadiCells in the treatment of COVID-19 associated ARDS. Additionally, the Company has an Investigational New Drug Application IND# 28508 for treatment of COPD, for which the Company is still in discussions with the FDA.
