NetworkNewsBreaks – Silo Pharma Inc. (SILO), UMB Collaborating on Potentially Significant Homing-Peptide Technology

Silo Pharma (OTCQB: SILO) earlier this year extended its research partnership with the University of Maryland, Baltimore (“UMB”) to explore potentially lifesaving joint-homing peptides that target inflamed endothelium (a thin membrane that lines the inside of the heart and blood vessels). “Silo’s partnership with UMB focuses on peptides used for investigating and treating the arthritogenic process or joint disease. Current treatment for arthritis has side effects that include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, tinnitus, hair loss, seizures, fever, congestion, unusual lumps or masses, and more. OTC arthritis therapeutics, such as common NSAIDs, can produce stomach ulcers, dizziness and indigestion and can have unpredictable results with other medications. Silo’s novel inventions could greatly limit or eliminate these side effects. Silo and UMB are also investigating central nervous system (‘CNS’) homing peptides to deliver targeted payloads of psilocybin for treating multiple sclerosis (‘MS’) and other neuroinflammatory diseases. These peptides are designed to address numerous challenges…” a recent article reads. Silo CEO Eric Weisblum is quoted saying, “The ability to deliver conventional and novel therapeutic compounds directly to targeted areas of the body with homing-peptide technology could be significant by increasing the efficacy of the treatment while reducing the amount of medicine needed…”
