Xgene Corporation

Xgene Corporation was founded in 1998 by Dr. Hoeffler just as he was leaving Stanford University Medical School's Department of Dermatology. The company was created to commercialize technology developed for producing a full-thickness human skin equivalent, CeSSETM (Cell-Sorted Skin Equivalent), pronounced "cease." This acronym has special meaning in light of worldwide legislation mandating the cessation of animal testing. Xgene's skin model based on the CeSSETM technology is called AccuskinTM and has immediate application as a substitute for animal testing, and so Xgene is uniquely positioned to take advantage of a lucrative new market. AccuskinTM has broad applications in the cosmetics, personal care, and other consumer products industries and therefore there is an immediate need for human skin for testing and future grafting. This, in combination with medical application in wound healing and disease, has created tremendous demand for our products and services. The patent position for the CeSSETM technology, as well as multiple patents pending on enhancements of this technology, is owned by Xgene Corporation worldwide.
