[ RadSafe ] Lethal dose of radiation???? No Problem, RX100 is here!!!

[Nielsen, Erik]

When you stop laughing consider that some agency will probably invest in
this stuff!!

RX100 Rescues Life if Administered 3, 6, 12, or Up to 24 Hours After
Exposure to Lethal, Whole-Body Radiation!
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn., May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- RxBio, Inc., announces that
its lead product, RX100, a potent radioprotectant as well as
radiomitigator, protects against lethal, whole-body radiation when
administered before, during, or up to 24 hours after exposure. Animal
studies convincingly demonstrate that RX100 can prevent death if given
before or during lethal radiation exposure -- and rescue life if
administered up to 24 hours after lethal, whole-body radiation exposure
-- although maximum benefit is derived if the product is administered
within 6-12 hours following exposure.
Dr. W. Shannon McCool, RxBio's CEO, points out that: "RX100 is unique
among radioprotectants/radiomitigators in that it boosts natural
mechanisms that promote and sustain cell survival in almost every cell
type and at the same time inhibits the cascade leading to programmed
cell death (apoptosis). Thus, RX100 augments the good and shuts down the
bad. While other products shut down essential cellular signaling
mechanisms involved in radiation- induced cellular injury and tend to
lack specificity and/or may be toxic, RX100 is a specific activator of
natural, nontoxic, protective mechanisms of cell survival and
antiapoptosis. Among its actions, RX100 is protecting critical stem
cells. RX100 is a specific activator of natural, nontoxic, protective
mechanisms of cell survival. RX100 can be formulated for a wide range of
patient types -- from infants to the elderly -- and can be administered
either orally or subcutaneously."
In addition, RX100 is a potent protector of the GI tract -- whether
administered subcutaneously or orally. RxBio scientists have developed
an oral formulation that though not absorbed systemically, provides
significant protection to the gut from radiation, chemotherapy, and
other toxic substances. Among other things, it prevents the
disintegration of the mucosal barrier -- thus, preventing diarrhea and
overwhelming bacterial infections, potentially severe side effects from
such exposures.
Several agencies of the Federal Government continue their interest in
this promising new compound and its unique approach and mechanism.
