Let's not forget about P16
I believe when we see LymPro Revenue we will close this deal. Can someone here with more knowledge of P16 help explain the significance of this agreement and the kind of value this would potentially add to AMBS, I know this is a great thing, just don't know the science behind it.

"We are extremely pleased to enter into this agreement that further positions Amarantus within the cell cycle dysregulation field in Alzheimer's disease," said Gerald E. Commissiong, President & CEO of Amarantus. "We believe new concepts and ideas are required to make progress in treating this devastating disorder, and we believe Dr. Arendt's pioneering work that led to LymPro also has therapeutic applications. We look forward to working with the University to execute definitive agreements."
Dr. Arendt has filed international patent applications on the concepts of modulating the expression of P16 in the brains of patients of Alzheimer's disease using gene therapy. P16 is a cell cycle protein that assists in maintaining and nurturing synaptic connections that is hypothesized to be at the root of Alzheimer's pathology. The Company is currently developing an Alzheimer's blood diagnostic LymPro Test(R) capable of identifying cell cycle dysregulation by harvesting peripheral blood lymphocytes. This option agreement opens the possibility of a targeted therapeutic on those Alzheimer's patients that have tested positive for LymPro.
