EndGenitor scientists are also engaged in exciting research to novel methods for stimulating and promoting blood vessel formation and growth.

Angiogenix, Inc. is an early-stage biotechnology company developing products for peripheral and cardiac ischemia. The Company's ACCLAIM(tm product candidates are proprietary nitrates focused on replacing a significant share of existing generic nitrate products with worldwide sales of about $3 billion. The Company's Vasotrophin(r product candidate is a novel angiogenic growth factor that stimulates both angiogenesis and arteriogenesis to produce robust new blood vessels. Vasotrophin can be injected directly into peripheral tissue and used with proven catheter technologies for cardiovascular applications. Angiogenix is located in Burlingame, California.

NeurAxon is discovering and developing next generation pain therapeutics focused on the inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), an enzyme involved in modulating pain and central nervous system neuronal sensitization. NeurAxon's lead product candidate, NXN-188, is a first-in-class, dual-action small molecule incorporating both nNOS inhibition and 5-HT agonism that is being developed for the treatment of acute migraine.

Painceptor develops peripherallyactive pharmaceuticals for the treatment and management of pain. Per the company, Painceptors researchers and industrial collaborators have advanced a series of highly selective organic molecules which will alleviate pain in a number of debilitating untreated diseases. PainCeptors therapeutics relieve pain by intercepting tissue specific pain at the source and promoting a receptive physiological environment for relief of chronic and acute pain.

Neurotide is developing pain killers based on the body's own natural pain killer, endomorphin. Synthesised endomorphin can relieve pain when delivered directly to the brain, but has a short life span and is unsuitable as a drug without modifications. Neurotide is developing an orally available form of endomorphin for the treatment of chronic and acute pain as well as a new treatment for neuropathic pain, which can be caused by diabetes, injury and certain infections.

Banyan Biomarkers has created a Point of Care (POC) Blood Test to diagnose traumatic brain injury (TBI). Banyan Biomarkers' research has identified unique biomarkers present in the patient's blood following injury to the brain. The detection and quantification of these biomarkers may provide early indications of brain trauma essential for earlier intervention and management.
