“The development of immunotherapies for oncology has been fantastic. I think the time is now for immunotherapies in other medical indications, steering the different immune cell subtypes to perform whatever tasks are needed – be it reducing fibrosis, increasing regeneration, fighting bacteria more efficiently, regulating blood pressure, or preserving organ function. With ILP-technology, we can use chemokines as therapeutics in a way that works well, is cost efficient, and has scalable manufacturing and a sustainable supply chain, by expressing them from lactic acid bacteria.”
