Parse Biosciences Partners with Taiwan-based Prisma Biotech to Extend Reach in Asia

August 08, 2024,Seattle, United States : Parse Biosciences, a leading provider of accessible and scalable single cell sequencing solutions, today announced an agreement with Taipei-based Prisma Biotech to broaden Parse’s reach in Taiwan and across Asia-Pacific.

“Biotech, pharma, and academic researchers across Asia are boosting demand for Parse’s Evercode single cell sequencing solutions in the region as they discover their scalability and simplicity,” noted Parse Biosciences CEO and co-founder Alex Rosenberg, Ph.D. “We’re excited to empower them to easily take advantage of Parse’s single cell sequencing technology through our partnership with Prisma.”

The company’s agreement with Prisma Biotech will give a greater number of Asian researchers full access to Parse’s single cell portfolio, including Evercode™ Whole Transcriptome, Evercode TCR, Evercode BCR, Evercode Cell Fixation, Evercode Nuclei Fixation, Gene Select, CRISPR Detect, and the Parse Biosciences data analysis solution, Trailmaker. The agreement is a continuation of Parse’s ongoing market penetration in Asia, including South Korea, Singapore, and India, as well as in key international markets such as North America, Europe, Australia, Israel, and New Zealand.

“Single cell sequencing products are in high demand, and Parse’s Evercode technology is extremely compelling because of its scalability and ease of use,” noted Prisma Biotech CEO Kevin Tseng. “Our partnership with Parse will bring single cell sequencing to a wide range of researchers in Taiwan and the larger Asia-Pacific region, and we’re excited to support scientific discoveries the tools enable.”

  • Genespire and SR-TIGET Show Durable Preclinical Efficacy of Liver-Directed Gene Therapy for Methylmalonic Acidemia

    Milan, Italy, July 08 — Genespire, in collaboration with researchers at the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-TIGET), has today announced the publication of preclinical data supporting the potential of its liver-directed immune-shielded lentiviral gene therapy approach to treat methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), a severe inherited metabolic disorder. The findings, published in the Journal of Hepatology, show that a single systemic administration of a lentiviral vector encoding the MMUT gene led to sustained improvements in disease features in a validated mouse model of MMA, with effects lasting for the average lifespan of laboratory mice. Since the mice were treated when young, the study supports the durability of the gene therapy through postnatal growth and maturation of the liver. MMA is caused by a deficiency of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, an enzyme that plays a critical role in the body’s metabolism of food. Its absence results in the accumulation of toxic metabolites that lead to recurrent metabolic crises, growth failure, neurological impairment, and multi-organ damage. In the study, researchers also treated mice with a dose containing an optimized MMUT transgene, thereby improving therapeutic efficacy. In the same mouse model of MMA, this…
