Medikine, located in Menlo Park, California, is a seed-stage biopharmaceutical discovery company committed to the creation of novel cytokine and growth factor receptor agonists – a new class of medicinally useful and commercially valuable molecules. Medikine's proprietary compounds mimic the activities of the natural protein agonists, but are much lower in molecular weight and completely unrelated in sequence and structure. Thus, for the first time, Medikine's compounds provide the opportunity to use medicinal chemistry approaches to re-engineer the bioactivities of the natural cytokines by enhancing desirable properties while minimizing unwanted side effects.
