Mycoplasma Infectious Diseases (MID) are systemic illnesses that cause vasculitis and neuritis. MID not only includes pneumonia but also diseases such as asthma, arthritis, nephritis, meningitis, encephalitis, dermatitis, pancreatitis, hepatitis, and hematologic illnesses. The broader concept of MID encompasses acute to chronic phases with diverse symptoms. Therefore, it is often confusing and difficult to identify Mycoplasma-infected patients among those with incurable diseases, such as autoimmune diseases, rheumatic diseases, nervous system disorders, and hematological disorders.
Because the appearance of drug-resistant mycoplasma, the early diagnosis and therapy of MID become more important. The problem of contamination to vaccine and biological products, and also transplantation and regenerative cell culture, it becomes critically important to establish medical system, in which to see mycoplasma infectious state and diagnose precisely.
Regrettably, conventional diagnosis has only been available for pneumonia, although it is critical to identify MID at early stages for effective medical treatment.
The cutting-edge technology has made it possible to measure the amount of specific antibodies to species-specific mycoplasma glycolipid-antigens. This new technology provides a reliable marker to follow the state of MID by monitoring antibody titer fluctuations. This advanced medicine can be applied to the differential diagnosis of side effects of drugs, including interstitial pneumonia and Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Furthermore, it is useful companion diagnostics, for the development of curative medicine, a vaccine, an antibody drug, an immune therapy. The vaccine for Mycoplasma Infectious Diseases (MID) is innovative human vaccine (First-in-class), which does not need adjuvant.
The contribution from various medical fields will be beneficial to develop
preventative health care to improve patient quality of life and reduce
overall medical expenses. Furthermore, it is necessary to build medical
networks for reconstitution of mycoplasma surveillance system from the
national level to the global level, and to establish medical treatment
guideline for MID.
M Bio Technology Inc. is the research-and-development type venture business established on January 5, 2005.
M Bio Technology Inc. is focusing the diagnosis, therapeutic and prevention
with Mycoplasma Infectious Diseases.
Mycoplasma infection cause not only pneumonia but asthma, arthritis, nephritis,
meningitis, encephalitis, arteritis, dermatitis, etc., and presents variegated
condition, such as autoimmune diseases, rheumatic disease and a nervous
system disorders, innflammatory diseases.
M Bio Technology Inc. is aiming for bussiness development on the mycoplasma
lipid-antigen technologies.The diagnosis and drug design to the pathogenic
microbe using the synthesized lipid antigen are world's first platform
technology, and, would like to explore mutual business opportunities, in
the field of diagnostics and vaccines.
We would like to create an open innovation and global development are promoted,
and wish joint development, a business tie-up, and the information and
support relevant to a finance.
