[StemCells] Endometrial regenerative (stem cells)

Medistem's Endometrial Regenerative Cell Discovery Publication
Receives BioMed Central's Article of the Year Award

March 20, 2008: 08:10 AM EST

Medistem Laboratories, Inc. (OTCBB: MDSM) is pleased to announce its
recent co-authored article entitled, "Endometrial regenerative cells:
a novel stem cell population" received BioMed Central's research
article of the year in medicine award. The award recognizes
excellence in research that has been made universally accessible
through open access publication in one of BioMed Central's > 170 peer
reviewed scientific journals. The award was presented to Medistem's
CEO Thomas Ichim and Dr. Xiaolong Meng at the Royal Society of
Medicine in London, England. The publication is freely available at
http://www.translational-medicine.com/content/5/1/57.

"We are extremely proud of the international recognition our
scientists and collaborators are receiving for the discovery of this
new type of stem cell," said Dr. Neil Riordan, President of
Medistem. "We believe that these cells, which we have termed
endometrial regenerative cells (ERC), offer a novel way of
circumventing the medical and ethical issues posed by embryonic stem
cells today."

Medistem owns intellectual property associated with endometrial
regenerative cells and is currently developing a pipeline of
therapeutic products around them. Medistem's lead product is based on
preventing amputation through restoring blood flow to the limbs of
patients with diabetes and advanced peripheral artery disease.

"The ERC population appears to be superior to other stem cell types.
These cells do not require matching with the recipient, they home to
areas of injury or tissue damage, and they can become most of the
tissue types found in the body," said Dr. Xiaolong Meng, lead author
of the article, Associate Director of the Bio-Communications Research
Institute, and Medistem collaborator.

About Medistem Laboratories

Medistem Laboratories is a biotechnology company founded to develop
and commercialize technologies related to adult stem cell extraction,
manipulation, and use for treating inflammatory and degenerative
diseases. The company's lead product, the endometrial regenerative
cell (ERC), is a "universal donor" stem cell derived from the
menstrual blood that possesses the ability to differentiate into nine
tissue types, produce large quantities of growth factors, and a large
proliferative capacity. Due to Medistem's relationships and
collaborative efforts with respected institutions, Medistem believes
it is well positioned to be a leading developer of adult stem cell
products. .
