    Supports IP development for novel mushroom genetics and therapeutics for multiple indications

    NEW YORK, April 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptogenix, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNPX) ("Synaptogenix" or the "Company"), an emerging biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for neurodegenerative disorders, today announced that it has increased its stake in psilocybin drug discovery company PsygaBio through its previously announced partnership with Cannasoul Analytics ("Cannasoul"). Synaptogenix acquired a 25% stake in Cannasoul during November of 2023 in support of research and development for psilocybin mushroom and cannabinoid-based therapeutics. Cannasoul is founded by the Technion Research & Development Foundation, the commercialization arm of The Technion—Israel Institute of Technology ("the Technion").

    Cannasoul's subsidiary, PsygaBio, is engaged in mushroom cultivation, psilocybin extraction, and the exploration of active compounds and formulations for therapeutic benefits. Its initial therapeutic targets inflammatory and central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and ocular conditions. PsygaBio's unique drug discovery platform utilizes intellectual property and Technion technologies licensed by Cannasoul along with its own proprietary extraction, separation, isolation, and synthesis technologies.

    "In addition to the continuing work on our Bryostatin program, our mission and purpose extends to funding research on other innovative assets and/or potential acquisitions of asset rights. Psilocybin and psilocin, the major active metabolites in psychedelic mushrooms, are gaining broad attention as potential therapies for a range of conditions," said Dr. Alan Tuchman, Chief Executive Officer of Synaptogenix. "PsygaBio is pursuing the wide-open scientific field for mushroom-based therapies, with backing from a leading international venture capital fund and a renowned academic institution. The company's distinguished scientists are creating and stabilizing new mushroom genetics and developing novel intellectual property that could lead to exciting new discoveries in psilocybin therapeutics. We are proud to support their research and development efforts and look forward to sharing more of their achievements in the future."

    Synaptogenix, through its partnership with Cannasoul, expanded its stake in PsygaBio, enabling Synaptogenix Chairman Josh Silverman and Director Bruce Bernstein to join PsygaBio's board of directors. These board members remain in their roles at Synaptogenix as the Company continues its work on Bryostatin for therapeutic treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. No additional funding was made by Synaptogenix with respect to its stake in Cannasoul or PsygaBio.

    According to its most recent 10-K filing as of December 31, 2023, Synaptogenix reported a cash balance of $28.7 million. Additionally, following a recent reverse split, the Company now has approximately 1,085,333 outstanding shares.

    Psilocybin Market Growth

    According to a market research report from January 20241, the global psychedelic drugs market will grow at a projected compound annual growth rate of 12.2% over the next decade. By segmentation, psilocybin is prominent, driven by the substantial amount of research on its therapeutic potential. Psilocybin was the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global psychedelic drugs market in 2023.

    About PsygaBio

    PsygaBio is a drug discovery company focused on developing groundbreaking therapeutics derived from natural compounds. Founded by world-renowned cannabis and mushrooms researcher and pioneer Prof. Dedi Meiri from the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, the company is backed by robust scientific capabilities including Cannasoul's proprietary analytical platform, data-driven approach, unique know-how, and clinical trial framework supports PsygaBio's active compound identification and development, from mushrooms cultivation and extraction, through clinical approved formulations. 

    About Synaptogenix

    Synaptogenix is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that has historically worked to develop novel therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Synaptogenix has conducted clinical and preclinical studies of its lead therapeutic candidate, Bryostatin-1, in Alzheimer's disease. Preclinical studies have also demonstrated bryostatin's regenerative mechanisms of action for the rare disease Fragile X syndrome, and for other neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Synaptogenix for Bryostatin-1 as a treatment for Fragile X syndrome. Bryostatin-1 has already undergone testing in more than 1,500 people in cancer studies, thus creating a large safety data base that will further inform clinical trial designs. Additional information about Synaptogenix, Inc. may be found on its website: www.synaptogen.com
