United Therapeutics Corporation Acquires Thymmune Therapeutics
Key takeaways
United Therapeutics bought Thymmune, a small company that makes lab-grown thymus cells. The thymus is the organ that helps train the immune system. The goal is to help the body accept a transplanted organ without heavy anti-rejection drugs. This is an early business deal, and the therapy is still in animal and lab testing, with no results in people yet.
