RNS Number : 1340J Genflow Biosciences PLC 25 April 2022
PRESS RELEASE
25 April 2022
Genflow Biosciences Plc
("Genflow" or "the Company")
Genflow to Present at Longevity Leaders 4(th) World Congress 2022
Genflow (LSE: GENF) is pleased to announce that Eric Leire, the Company's
Chief Executive Officer, will present an overview of the Company's
pre-clinical research into gene therapies to target the aging process at the
forthcoming Longevity Leaders World Congress ("LLWC"), 26-27 April 2022.
Mr Leire's presentation at the prestigious LLWC event will focus on the
potential of the Sirtuin-6 ("SIRT6") gene variant found in centenarians
(people aged more than 100 years old) to boost the development of anti-aging
therapies. The ability of SIRT6 to act on the rejuvenation of cells is a
significant finding, indicative of the SIRT6 gene mutation's potential to not
just halt the aging process, but to reverse it.
Genflow intends to promote healthy aging by delivering extra copies of SIRT6
into cells by using adeno-associated virus ("AAV") vectors as a safe and
efficient gene delivery system.
Genflow is a UK-based biotechnology company focused on longevity and the
development of therapies to counteract the effects of aging and diseases
associated with advanced age. It is the first longevity biotechnology
company to list in Europe and seeks to be a reference company in the European
longevity sector.
Title: Could a Gene Variant Found in Centenarians Boost Efforts to Develop Anti-aging
Therapies?
Day/Date: Tuesday 26 April 2022
Presentation Time: 14:55 - 15:30 BST

About Genflow
Genflow is a UK-based biotechnology company established in 2020. The Company
is developing gene therapies designed to target the aging process and to
reduce and delay the incidence of age-related diseases. This will be done
through novel therapeutics targeting aging in humans by using adeno-associated
virus ("AAV") vectors to deliver copies of the Sirtuin-6 ("SIRT6") gene
variant that is found in centenarians into cells.
Its mission is to increase understanding of the factors that control and
impact lifespan. Genflow researches, develops, and commercialises therapeutic
solutions to lengthen health span, the amount of time we live in good health,
creating biological interventions that enable longer and healthier lives.
Genflow is dedicated to the development and commercialisation of novel
therapeutics targeting aging in dogs and humans. By treating aging, Genflow
can contribute to a decrease in healthcare costs and lessen the emotional and
societal burden that comes with an aging population.
