What is GVHD 50% bone marrow transplants patients will face a life- threatening complication called Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) GVHD cannot be diagnosed until the patient develops observable symptoms. Often, too late to save the patient’s life. All Contents are Proprietary Information of Marx Biotechnology LTD

Results: Mass Spectrometry
Comments Sample 2 (Gsk3β+PKC) Sample 1 (Gsk3β-PKC) Already phosphorylated/auto-phosphorylated site, newly discovered site. Thr324 1 Previously discovered site with unknown function. Ser215 2 Ser219 3 Newly discovered site. Thr309 4 Known inhibition site phosphorylated by several proteins, including PKC. Ser9 5 Thr356 6 Known inhibition site phosphorylated by p38 MAPK. Thr390 7 Thr392 8 Ser389 9 Nine phosphorylation sites were found on the Gsk3β incubated with PKC. One of these sites was seen in the sample which contained Gsk3β alone, indicating that this site was previously phosphorylated or auto- phosphorylated. The addtional 8 sites on Gsk3β are phosphorylated directly by PKC. All Contents are Proprietary Information of Marx Biotechnology LTD

Results: T-cell Proliferation
Inhibitors group: Inhibiting 3 pathways significantly reduced cell proliferation in comparison to controls. Indicates that lower levels of Gsk3β phosphorylation is correlated with decreased cell proliferation. PKC group: Activation of PKC (which phosphorylates Gsk3β) restores the cells to normal proliferation, despite other inhibitors. Indicates that Gsk3β phosphorylation can be correlated with an increase in proliferation. PKC inhibited group: When all of the 4 major pathways are inhibited (and therefore Gsk3β is NOT phosphorylated), there is almost no cell proliferation. Indicates that Gsk3β regulates T-cell proliferation. * * ** *** p-value<0.01, statistical differences indicated by number of stars, One-way ANOVA (Student-Newman-Keuls Method) Experimental groups (in triplicates): None – untreated cells Inhibitors – treated with inhibitors against p38, Erk, and PI-3K pathways, with PKC unaffected PKC activated – treated with inhibitors against p38, Erk, and PI-3K, and treated with PKC activator. PKC inhibited – treated with inhibitors against p38, Erk, and PI-3K, and treated with PKC inhibitor Statistics: p-value < 0.01, One-way ANOVA (Student-Newman-Keuls Method) All Contents are Proprietary Information of Marx Biotechnology LTD

Simple , Doable, Manageable
How the Kit Works Patient undergoes bone marrow transplant Blood tests are taken routinely for the detection of GVHD (before symptoms develop) The samples are processed and incubated on the protein chip. Results are obtained within hours Doctor receives real-time information of patient’s GVHD status Improved health care and quality of life for patient Simple , Doable, Manageable All Contents are Proprietary Information of Marx Biotechnology LTD
