CYGS Patent Claims Allowed for ssDNA Vector and NCI/NIH Researcher Joins Scientific Advisory Board Business Wire - January 10, 1999 18:13 HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 10, 1999--Cryogenic Solutions, Inc. (OTC BB:CYGS) announced today that its principal research facility, InGene, Inc., has received notice of allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a patent application entitled Stem-Loop Cloning Vector And Method. CYGS is the exclusive licensee of this application from InGene. It is anticipated that the patent will issue in the summer of 1999. This patent application relates to the production and use of single stranded DNA expression vectors which, among other things, can be used in synthesizing sequence specific, antisense competent oligodeoxyribonucleotides in vivo. Effective delivery of antisense molecules offers a promising method for treatment of a number of diseases and disorders at the most basic genetic level, eliminating the need for drugs or surgery to treat symptoms or repair the damage caused by faulty, impaired, or inactive genes. CYGS is currently conducting experiments to demonstrate that their ssDNA expression vector delivers antisense molecules into the cells of living animals, including humans, in sufficient quantities to be pharmacologically significant. CYGS also announced the addition to the company*s Scientific Advisory Board of Stephen M.
