Entrinsic Bioscience Demonstrates Breakthrough GI Barrier Benefits

Entrinsic Bioscience, a pioneering life sciences company incubating at UF Innovate | Accelerate at Sid Martin Biotech, announced results from a new clinical study at renowned Monash University, in Melbourne, Australia. Entrinsic has successfully demonstrated the efficacy of two UF patent-protected formulas, utilizing precise combinations of amino acids, which enabled them to provide targeted gastrointestinal (GI) health and wellness benefits. The study was conducted by Dr. Ricardo Costa in collaboration with Dr. Robert Kenefick, recognized experts in the fields of hydration and exercise-induced heat stress and their impact on GI barrier function.  

“Our platform has demonstrated potential to become a new modality of health & wellness. We believe it’s a game changer.”

In the study, Entrinsic’s advanced VS-001 formulation successfully demonstrated that it protected the “gut barrier” or GI lining from damage during intense exercise-induced heat stress. Dr. Kenefick explained that the results from VS-001 are very promising: “The fact that all subjects receiving the control beverage without amino acids presented substantial intestinal epithelial injury values, whereas those receiving VS-001 intervention did not, indicates the protective benefit resulting from the ability to maintain GI barrier function.” In addition, Entrinsic’s VS-006 formula demonstrated faster recovery and restoration of normal gut barrier function following exercise-induced heat stress.
