Restoring tissue health and rejuvenating lives
Protein signaling dysregulation leads to degenerative diseases
Juvena maps the therapeutic potential of natural secreted proteins and engineers them into biologics that restore tissue homeostasis
Secreted proteins are released by cells to direct cellular repair, promote tissue regeneration, and drive healthy communication between different body systems. As our bodies age or as a result of genetic mutations, protein signaling can become dysregulated leading to a loss of tissue homeostasis. The resulting tissue degeneration manifests as a loss of healthy bodily functions and onset of chronic diseases.
Juvena’s platform mines thousands of proteins secreted by human stem cells, screens their potential to restore tissue homeostasis, and engineers novel biologic medicines into life-saving treatments.
Juvena Therapeutics is a computationally-driven biopharmaceutical company on a mission to research, develop, and commercialize tissue restorative biologics to treat myopathies and metabolic diseases.
Juvena Therapeutics is a computationally-driven biopharmaceutical company on a mission to research, develop, and commercialize tissue restorative biologics to treat myopathies and metabolic diseases.
We are achieving this through a fully integrated, end-to-end artificial intelligence-enabled platform that combines a diverse protein library, in silico mapping of secreted proteins to specific disease phenotypes, in vitro human cell screening, in vivo pharmacology, and protein engineering capabilities.
AI-powered analysis drives rapid expansion of our protein candidate library, hit generation and target validation
In vivo validation of protein bioactivity enables optimization of clinical impact and safety
Advanced protein engineering synthesizes novel biologics
Juvena has developed new tools to overcome translational barriers and pioneer treatments like our first-in-class myotonic dystrophy program. We partnered with the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation to deliver transformative outcomes for patients.
Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 is a genetic disorder causing progressive muscle degeneration and metabolic impairments. It impacts skeletal muscle and frequently disrupts cardiac conduction, respiration, swallowing, and cognitive function.
Additional metabolic diseases Juvena focuses on include obesity, sarcopenia, lung and liver diseases.
