Culturing of two grams muscle biospy from normal humann leg , 100% pure myoblasts could be obtained to treat heart disease and muscular dystrophy. Yesterday, Cell Therapy Institute, which own the world's most advanced technology began operation in Optical Valley.
Cell Therapy Institue is the first professional institute to carry out of myoblast research and medical applications all over the world. Professor Peter K. law , a Chinese Canadian who is the Father of myoblast therapy, has won a special U.S. National Medal of Honor of outstanding service and the Honor Award of Russian Academy.

With this feature, we can take 2 g of muscle from the leg of a healthy man, and 50 billion myoblasts which could be used once in the treatment of 50 heart diseases or a muscular dystrophy, can be obtained after cultured the biopsy for 46 days .
Professor Peter K. law said that you can make new cells to integration into the existing muscle tissue to promote the growth of the existing organization after the treatment of directly injecting the myoblasts into the affected area. It has a good effect at the heart disease, muscular dystrophy, aging and so on which are caused by The muscles losing their vitality. Such as in a foreign country's 300 cases of heart disease in clinical patients, myoblast therapy may improve Improve myocardial contractile function more than 40%. the clinical treatment in 280 cases of muscle dystrophy in patients achieved the desired therapeutic effect.
The world's most advanced technology is expected to be settled in Wuhan soon. Professor Peter K. law hopes that the High-Tech treatment which is invented by himself can save the Chinese patients as soon as possible.
