SUZHOU, China - April 2, 2019 - PRLog -- Re-Stem Biotech (Re-Stem or the Company), a biotechnology firm engaged in the research and development of cell based therapies and products for various indications, including osteoarthritis, spinal cord injury and cancer, sponsored the Guangdong Private Entrepreneurs Golf Association Invitational Tournament held at Mission Hills Golf Resort, Shenzhen, China on March 15, 2019.

The annual golf tournament brings together top executives in various industries in Guangdong Province in order to promote cooperation between private entrepreneurs, share resources and promote economic development in the province.

At the tournament dinner Benno Jiao, CEO of Re-Stem, presented the Company's history as one of the leading stem cell technology firms in China and one of the first to be certified as a stem cell supplier and stem cell bank. He also explained Re-Stem's stem cell pipeline of various drugs and therapies, including its therapy RE-KneewTM for Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA), which has completed clinical trials in China and is on the market.

About RE-KneewTM

RE-KneewTM is an autologous human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (haMPC) therapy developed to address knee osteoarthritis. The advanced proprietary process isolates and excites regenerative cells, which effects may include regeneration of cartilage and reduction of inflammation and degeneration. This therapy has successfully treated many athletes commonly affected by KOA and related knee injuries, including golfers and marathon runners.

About Osteoarthritis in China

Osteoarthritis is the second leading cause of disability[1] and KOA is one of the most common joint diseases worldwide. In China the prevalence of symptomatic KOA was 8.1% in 2012[2], which is estimated to be over 100 million people suffering with KOA. Since drug-based methods to manage KOA are ineffective, many patients degenerate to the point of requiring artificial joint replacement surgery. According to the statistics of the National Cartilage Association, the total number of joint replacement cases in China is about 100,000 every year.
