Costs Of Cord Blood Banking: Priceless
By Kwang Yul

College of Medicine, Pochon CHA University(Representative : Kwang Yul Cha M.D) & CHA Medical Group's biotechnology venture business, CHA Biotech(Board of Director: Kwang Yul Cha) was established for the development of cell therapy using that is so-called the "Flower of the Medical Science" in September 2000. CHA Biotec, led by Kwang Yul Cha, is now promoting to form large-scale institute in both U.S and Korea by building CHA Medical Institute organized of 180 professionals focusing on treatment and cord blood deposit and transplantation. CHA Medical Group led by Kwang Yul Cha M.D will start constructing 'CHA Institute' in 2009 at Pangyo Techno Valley and it is scheduled to open in 2010.

 'CHA Group Institute' has not only research facilities such as institute, GMP grade sterile culture room which can make the medicines, cord blood bank, immunity vaccine institute, artificial internal organ institute but also life science school, medical school to train professionals. After institute is completed, it will be equipped with Lab to Patient System which can pursue clinical demonstration at Bundang CHA Hospital immediately from latest research. And it is expected to joint research with the world’s leading research institute in the institute. They planned to promote cooperating with the world’s famous institute such as UCLA(University of California at Los Angeles), Columbia University, Alabama State University , Rice University, University of Southern California, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Harvard University McLean Hospital etc.

 And few months ago, College of Medicine, Pochon CHA University (representative: Kwang Yul Cha M.D) held “The 5th Pacific Rim Society for Fertility and Sterility” in Dynasty Hall, Seoul Shilla Hotel from June 9th~10th to conquer the low birth late, inviting the world’s foremost scholars in the field of sterilization and reproductive medicine. 'The 5th Pacific Rim Society for Fertility and Sterility' held by CHA Medical Group(Representative : Kwang Yul Cha) is hosted by three leading institute; The Korean Society of Fertility & Sterility, The Korean Society of preservative reproductive medicine, and The Korean Society of Developmetal Biology. Nationally and internationally well-known authorities on the field of Sterilization and reproductive medicine from Korea, United States, and Japan announced their papers and about 500 participants from Thailand, India, Vietnam and Nepal enlighten the conference. 

 At first day of the conference, representative Cha Kwang Yul read the paper 'Slush Nitrogen Ovum Freezing method' that received 'The Best Paper Award' from 'World Society for Reproductive Medicine' and the head manager of Institute, Hyung-Min Jung made presentation over embryonic cell and was greeted enthusiastically by the participants. The survival rate of ovum is about 50 percents when applying the Existing Ovum Freezing Method. On the other hand, Slush-Nitrogen Ovum Freezing Method raise the survival rate to over 90 percents that it initiated the way to activate the ovum bank.

Stem Cell Production Capacity: CHA Medical Group(representative: Kwang Yul Cha) created total 12 Human Embryonic and under the admission of the International Deliberate Council, CHA Medical Group(representative: Kwang Yul Cha) is planning to produce over 100 embryonic that are able to apply clinical demonstration using human supporting cell, serum and non-serum culture medium

at GMP within 10 years.

World known cytogenesis capacity & ability: CHA Medical Group(representative: Kwang Yul Cha) is the first to success in recovering the damage of cranial nerves by transplanting the mice's embyonic into alive one's brain. Developed differentiation technology by using neuron, vascular Endothelial, Cartilage Cell, Endocrine Cell, and Heart muscle cells.

Gene Manipulation in Human embryonic stem cell: By developing technology that can induct specific gene into Human Embryonic Cell CHA Medical Group achieved cytogeny technology in specific cell, Human Embryonic production, medicinal screening method, Tumor Suppressor Technology, and interpreting the function of the specific gene.

Gene Therapy ability: Found cancer cell suppressor protein and enzyme gene called 'mHAUSP' that operates the cancer-suppressing activity. Now researches on therapy and clinical test on progressing.

Artificial organ production ability: By Utilizing embryonic stem call and adult developed biodegradable tissue, instestine and Scaffold, Researches on three-dimensional artificial tissue and intestine production is in advance.

Leading the Cell Therapy Product market using stem cell: If applied-technology such as cytogenesis and cell therapy utilizing embryonic is practically use, size of over 600 billion won market will be created. To treat specific diseases(Leukemia, Diabetes, urinary incontinece, stroke) cell differentiation inducement and establishing lines bank using Embryonic and Adult is promoted.

Researches on Sterility & Security is guaranteed by running 'Human Ovum Freezing Bank: 'Slushed-Nitrogen Ovum Freezing Method' has survival rate over 90 percents and pregnancy rate is over 65%, too. The method described above is known as world's best technology that has similar reproduction ability to general ovum. CHA Biotech (Board of Director:Kwang Yul Cha) became the leader of this field by steadily executing safe and moral and medical treatment on sterility by running freezing bank.

CHA Regenerative Medical Institute, awarded the grant "Patient-Specific Production": Awarded the grant related to patient-specific production using somac cell reproduction from WIRB in June, 2006. Using Human ovum Freezing Bank, developing patient-specific production and treatment technology is their aim.
