Orakine
Limited
Orakine Limited was formed to commercially exploit the proprietary
technology developed to take advantage of natural cytokine
therapy through simple contact with the oromucosal tissue
and subsequent cellular activation and trafficking. This patented
and novel technology will revolutionise the €12 billion cytokine
pharmaceutical market.
Cytokines,
such as IFN, are proteins that are produced in human tissues,
in minute amounts, and play an important role in maintaining
the normal functions of human metabolism and fighting disease.
Since they are secreted proteins they have been among the
first products of the biopharmaceutical industry. The processes
of biotechnology allow the manufacture of these proteins in
unlimited amounts at reasonable costs. Because current therapies
require injection of cytokine directly into the patient's
blood, these powerful drugs often have severe side-effects.
Orakine's sublingual cytokine therapy represents the most
natural route of administration and completely avoids the
toxicity of these proteins.
