Improving the Efficiency of SOA-Based Applications
jhv1blz5 wrote: The article validated SOA as an IT architecture paradigm that can be leveraged in many ways. Taking data storage, scalability and application performance to a nifty level using SOA Application Grid infrastructure will no doubt enhance data and application performance on Oracle architecture platforms, it also has the promise of a cost effective and efficient IT delivery model. The very benefits of SOA.

Medistem Laboratories Announces Positive Preclinical Results for MDS-786 Candidate
Non-Toxic Treatment for Lung Cancer Presented at International Stem Cell Meeting

PHOENIX, AZ -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 06/29/07 -- Medistem Laboratories (OTCBB: MDSM) (FRANKFURT: S2U) announced today preclinical proof-of-concept studies demonstrating the positive potential of the company's MDS-786 candidate drug for lung cancer. The findings were presented at the 13th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Cellular Therapy that took place June 24-27, 2007 in Sydney, Australia. The presentation, entitled "Differentiation and Inhibition of Tumor Cells by Cord Blood Stem Cells" reviewed the ability of MDS-786 to induce a process called "differentiation" in which tumor cells are coaxed into transforming into non-tumor cells through the use of a placentally derived product.

Thomas Ichim, Medistem's Chief of Scientific Development and primary author of the paper, stated, "To date, treatment options for patients with lung cancer are primarily limited to highly toxic chemotherapy and radiotherapy approaches, which in many cases are not successful. Through harnessing molecular mechanisms that signal stem cell maturation in normal cells, we are inducing a process that drives malignant cells to convert into non-malignant cells." He continued, "The process of inducing malignant cells to transform into normal cells has been proven clinically as a viable treatment for cancer and is used in the treatment of patients with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia. By applying such a process to solid tumors, we believe numerous therapeutic applications may exist that lack the toxicity of current approaches."

The National Cancer Institute estimates that over 10 million people are diagnosed with cancer annually. While there are some viable options today for treating some forms of cancer, Medistem is hopeful that MDS-786 can begin to address this dreaded disease in a non-toxic manner by allowing stem cells and the immune system to work in concert with one another to achieve homeostasis.
