Aethlon Medical (AEMD, Financial) has announced a significant development with the publication of a pre-clinical ex vivo study on bioRxiv. This study, titled “Ex Vivo Removal of CD41 positive platelet microparticles from Plasma by a Medical Device containing a Galanthus nivalis agglutinin, or GNA, affinity resin,” highlights their Hemopurifier technology. The Hemopurifier is a cutting-edge blood filtration device aimed at extracting harmful extracellular vesicles (EVs) and dangerous viruses from blood and other bodily fluids.
This innovation is applicable across multiple fields, including oncology, infectious diseases, organ transplantation, and other critical medical areas. Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles, the most prevalent EVs in the body, are released in response to various stimuli and play roles in vascular damage, immune activation, and tumor cell dissemination. Elevated levels of these EVs are associated with numerous diseases such as cancer, lupus, systemic sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, sepsis, and acute and Long COVID.
The company plans to submit the study findings to a peer-reviewed medical journal and will focus on analyzing the removal of PD-EVs and their cargo from plasma in diseases of interest in future research.
