Telomir Pharmaceuticals Announces Breakthrough: Telomir-1 Reverses Calcium Dysregulation, the Hidden Driver of Aging and Disease, in Multiple Human Cell Lines
New Study Confirms Telomir-1 Also Reverses Oxidative Stress, Preserves Cellular Integrity, and Prevents Cell Death by Supporting Cellular Stability
Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:TELO) (“Telomir”) today announced new preclinical findings demonstrating that Telomir-1 fully reverses calcium dysregulation, a critical factor in cellular aging and disease progression, across multiple human cell lines.
The study, conducted in human keratinocyte (HaCaT) and retinal (ARPE-19) cell lines, evaluated Telomir-1’s effects on intracellular calcium influx, oxidative stress, and cell viability under conditions of oxidative challenge. The findings showed that Telomir-1 reduced intracellular calcium overload, mitigated oxidative stress, and supported cellular integrity in response to extreme stress conditions. Untreated cells exhibited signs of degeneration and death, while those treated with Telomir-1 demonstrated improved resilience.
Telomir-1 is believed to preserve cellular function, prevent the activation of cell death pathways, and stabilize key mechanisms that support longevity and disease resistance. By addressing calcium dysregulation and oxidative stress—two key contributors to aging and disease—Telomir-1 has the potential to support cellular health and longevity.
Telomir Pharmaceuticals is advancing preclinical studies to bring Telomir-1 into human trials as a potential first-in-class therapy for aging-related conditions, including neurodegenerative disorders, retinal diseases, and metabolic dysfunction.
