Anthony Harrelson: Committed to His Career in Biopharmaceuticals
Anthony Harrelson is an entrepreneur, a business professional, and a medical professional. He has been highly successful through out his career, which spans many different industries and services. However, the most important work he conducts is within the biopharmaceutical industry. He is currently the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of White Oak Industries Inc., which is a company that strives to rid the world of infectious diseases through biotechnology. His company regularly works with diseases like HIV, Ebola, Bird Flu, and a variety of others. Through stem cell use and other advancements in biotechnology, the company is able to develop highly advanced vaccinations that rely on the patient’s own immune system at the core.
Anthony Harrelson understands that the reason many of the most deadly and most infectious diseases still have no vaccines because they can mutate upon spreading. This not only makes it incredibly difficult to create a single vaccine for everyone, but it also makes it incredibly hard to treat because diseases like HIV hide within tissue that will be destroyed by most treatments. However, Whit Oak Industries Inc. has developed an approach through RNA interference that activates a person’s immune system through the use of dendritic cells. These cells are the key to turning on the immune system, and they allow the body to develop a response specific to the disease that is infecting the body.
RNA interference is considered to be one of the most important discoveries of the last decade in the world of biotechnology. Through RNA interference, the most notable problems with finding treatments and vaccinations for diseases like HIV will no longer be an issue. It isn’t so much about stopping the disease as it is about enabling the body to fight the disease itself. Through stem cell use, this is more than just possible; it is actually working.
Although Anthony Harrelson hasn’t tested his vaccination prototypes on humans yet, his possible Ebola vaccination is working 100 percent of the time in the infected mammals he has tested it on. It is even saving mammals long after symptoms start to show on the subject. He is dedicated to stopping Ebola, and other diseases through out the world.
