The responsibilities of the remuneration committee under the Companies Law include: (i) making recommendations to the board of directors with respect to the approval of the compensation policy and any extensions thereto; (ii) periodically reviewing the implementation of the compensation policy and providing the board of directors with recommendations with respect to any amendments or updates thereto; (iii) reviewing and resolving whether or not to approve transactions with respect to the terms of office and employment of Office Holders; and (iv) resolving, under certain circumstances prescribed under the Companies Law, whether or not to exempt a transaction with a candidate for chief executive officer who meets non-affiliation criteria from shareholder approval.

(A) TβR I mRNA expression was determined by real-time PCR in kidneys from P311+/+ (n = 6) and P311−/− (n = 6) after mice 7 days after UUO or sham operation. (B) TβR II mRNA expression was determined by real-time PCR in kidneys from P311+/+ (n = 6) and P311−/− (n = 6) mice 7 days after UUO or sham operation. (C) p-Smad2, p-Smad3, Smad2, Smad3, Smad4, Smad7 and GAPDH protein levels were determined in kidneys by western blot. (D) Relative density of Smad2 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. (E) Relative density of Smad3 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. (F) Relative density of p-Smad2 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. (G) Relative density of p-Smad3 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. (H) Relative density of Smad4 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. (I) Relative density of Smad7 protein (n = 3 per group) in each treatment group. A-I are representative of at least three similar experiments. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.

This is a bit odd. Both CR and rapamycin will slow proliferation, but end up preserving stem cell function because they reduce senescence. Like you Paul, I can only imagine the rapamycin dose was not intermittent. I’ll watch the video through though, to see what they say.

I really do believe that even now with the proper diet/exercise/supplement/medication regimen that we could realistically prevent 95% of the age related diseases.

We have broad discretion in the use of our cash and cash equivalents and may not use them effectively.

Extraordinary Transactions, including private placement transactions, with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, and engagements with a controlling shareholder or his or her relative, directly or indirectly, including through a corporation under his or her control, regarding the company’s receipt of services from the controlling shareholder, and if such controlling shareholder is also an office holder or an employee of the company, regarding his or her terms of service or employment, require the approval of the audit committee or remuneration committee, the board of directors and the shareholders of a company by a Special Majority, in that order.

In addition, our patents and patent applications could face challenges. Any of these challenges, if successful, could result in the invalidation of, or in a narrowing of the scope of, any of our patents and patent applications subject to challenge. Any of these challenges, regardless of their success, would likely be time consuming and expensive to defend and resolve and would divert our management’s time and attention.

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of outsourced development expenses, salaries and related personnel expenses and fees paid to external service providers, patent-related legal fees, costs of pre-clinical studies and clinical trials and drug and laboratory supplies. We account for all research and development expenses as they are incurred. We expect our research and development expense to remain our primary expense in the near future as we continue to develop Aramchol. Increases or decreases in research and development expenditures are primarily attributable to the number and/or duration of the pre-clinical and clinical studies that we conduct.

(A) Representative HCN1 current traces from cells that underwent cholesterol depletion by MβCD (red) or enrichment by MβCD/cholesterol (blue) were compared to control (black). (B) Current densities of HCN1 are reduced upon cholesterol depletion and unchanged with enrichment. (C) Steady-state activation was not affected by modification of membrane cholesterol content. (D) HCN1 channel activation can be fit by a dual-exponential function. The fast component of HCN1 channel activation was unaffected by cholesterol modification, however, (E) the slow component was slower by nearly 2-fold upon cholesterol depletion. (F) The kinetics of HCN1 deactivation were unaffected by cholesterol manipulation. (n > 6; P < 0.05).

(A) Hematoxylin and eosin staining of human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). Black arrowhead indicates the remarkable tubular atrophy. (B) Masson trichrome staining of human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). Black arrowhead indicates the interstitial collagen fibril deposition. (C) P311 immunoreactivity in the cytoplasm of some tubular epithelial cells from human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). Black arrowhead indicates the P311-positive region. (D) α-SMA immunoreactivity in the cytoplasm of some tubular epithelial cells from human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). Black arrowhead indicates the α-SMA-positive region. (E) TGFβ1 immunoreactivity in the cytoplasm of some tubular epithelial cells from human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). Black arrowhead indicates the TGFβ1-positive region. (F) Negative control for the immunohistochemical staining on human renal fibrosis samples (n = 22). (G) Hematoxylin and eosin staining of healthy human kidney samples (n = 2). Black arrowhead indicates the normal renal tubules. (H) Masson trichrome staining of healthy human kidney samples (n = 2). Black arrowhead indicates the little interstitial collagen fibril. (I) P311 is negative in normal human renal tubular epithelial cells (n = 2). Scale bar: 100μm.

Alfacell Corporation (OTCPK: ACEL ) Alfacell Corporation is the first company to advance a biopharmaceutical product candidate that works in a manner similar to RNA interference (RNAi) through late-stage clinical trials. The product candidate, ONCONASE, is an RNase that overcomes the challenges of targeting RNA for therapeutic purposes while enabling the development of a new class of targeted therapies for cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
