Drug Reduces Airway Mucus In Preclinical Asthma Model

Inverseon, Inc.
announces the publication of a
rapid communication of groundbreaking research led by
Professor Richard Bond of the University of Houston,
Inverseon's Scientific Founder. In the March article by
Nguyen, et. al., in the American Journal of Respiratory Cell
and Molecular Biology 2008; 38: 256-262, entitled, "Chronic
Exposure to Beta-Blockers Attenuates Inflammation and Mucin
Content in a Murine Asthma Model," airway mucus
hypersecretion and inflammation were almost completely
reversed upon treatment with certain beta blockers. The
Journal commented that, "This research may result in a
paradigm shift in the treatment of asthma. This research
demonstrates the importance that duration of therapy has on
clinical and physiologic responses."



"It is gratifying to see these findings, which were
originally described in Prof. Bond's laboratory, confirmed
in a respected independent laboratory," commented William J.
Garner, MD, Chairman of Inverseon.
