Core One Labs Announces Successful Proof of Concept and Files Patent for Protection of its Recombinant Production System for Optimized Biosynthesis of Psilocybin

Core One Labs Announces Successful Proof of Concept and Files Patent for Protection of its Recombinant Production System for Optimized Biosynthesis of Psilocybin

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – January 21, 2022 – Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (“Core One” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. of Victoria, British Columbia, has optimized its recombinant production system (the “System”), successfully testing its proof of concept for the biosynthesis of psilocybin suitable for use in future scale-up and has filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) titled “Production of Psychedelic Compounds” for protection of its novel psilocybin production system. Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound that is showing enormous promise in treating addiction and depression.

The Company’s team of scientists at Vocan have constructed optimized DNA sequences that can produce enzymes replicating the biosynthetic pathway used by Psilocybe mushrooms. This allows bacteria to become factories for psilocybin production. Under the leadership of Dr. Jan Burian, Chief Scientist, and Dr. Robert EW Hancock, Vocan CEO, Vocan scientists have used DNA modeling to improve and optimize design and produce unique DNA sequences that improve the efficiency and expression of these enzymes, allowing for rapid and cost-effective psilocybin production.
Currently, most companies use chemically synthesized psilocybin as the only available cGMP compliant product that is available in large volumes. The chemical process carries significant costs and is less efficient when compared to a biologically derived psilocybin. Vocan’s biosynthetic process retains the stereochemistry of the natural psilocybin molecules found in hallucinogenic mushrooms, which are known to have a more positive effect than the chemically synthetized counterpart. However, these tiny mushrooms are not an efficient source of psilocybin since the amount produced is quite small and variable.
Vocan’s successful production system engineers bacteria incorporating optimized biosynthetic genes from the Psilocybe mushroom and other species and enables the bacteria to act as a biological factory and synthesize psilocybin.

Additionally, the Company’s team of scientists hypothesise that by using a gene mimicry process and simple chemical modifications to enable the creation of bioidentical compounds, there is potential to produce other known and novel analogs of psilocybin and related psychedelics. The analog compounds may potentially be more effective, targeted, and safer than the natural compounds.

The patent application entitled “Production of Psychedelic Compounds” includes claims that Vocan’s technology will enable the production of cGMP API grade psilocybin, which can be used by pharmaceutical companies, API manufacturers and organizations conducting clinical trials and, where permitted by law, consumers, and patients. Vocan’s method of psilocybin production will provide more affordable access to organizations looking to acquire cGMP API grade psilocybin. Vocan’s psilocybin production method utilizes the well-established industrial process of fermentation and thus can be scaled up while consistently producing a high-quality cGMP product.

“I am very pleased to say that we are fulfilling our promise to our shareholders and to the medical and research sectors, in general, that we have successfully produced biosynthesized psilocybin. Our team of scientists continue to achieve significant and astounding scientific milestones. Our goal is to play a significant role in furthering mental health research and the benefits of psychedelic medicines, and our cost-effective psychedelic compounds will go a long way towards allowing otherwise cost prohibitive medicines to be widely used,” Stated Dr. Hancock, Chairman of the Company, and CEO of Vocan. “This successful proof of concept for development and production of cost effective and stereochemically sound psilocybin puts Core One in a very unique position. It not only potentially positions the Company as first to market with a biosynthetic psychedelic, it positions us to become market-leaders with regards to cost efficiency, as well.

Core One Labs Now Also Working to Biosynthesize DMT and Receives License

Core One Labs Now Also Working to Biosynthesize DMT and Receives License

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – January 8, 2022 – Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (“Core One” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has progressed its work on biosynthesizing N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (“DMT”) and has been approved by Health Canada to add N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (“DMT”) to the schedule of approved controlled substances under the existing licence granted by the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (”CDSA”) Dealer’s Licence (the “Licence”) which allows its wholly owned subsidiary Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. (“Vocan”) to research and produce biosynthetic psilocybin.

Furnished with its renewed licence in the second half of 2021, and having now received approval to add DMT to its licence coverage, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. under its operating lab’s licence, has furthered its engineering and design optimization efforts for the proprietary manufacturing of API-grade DMT. The Company’s team of scientists at Vocan have been working diligently to expand a psychedelics production pipeline to include DMT. Initial indications of design and engineering suggest that using the same recombinant enzyme fermentation platform utilized to produce API-grade psilocybin, Vocan scientists will be able to replicate its biosynthesized psylocibin successes and announce ability to produce stereochemically sound biosynthesized DMT at scale.

The Company is confident that replication of historical research and development processes performed for its successful biosynthesis of psylocibin will allow for a more rapid turn around of its second biosynthesized psychedelic compound, DMT. Following similar processes of engineering and design may also increase probability of the Company’s filing of a patent for this second proprietary compound in the near term.

“Based on the significant progress we have made on biosythesizing psilocybin, DMT is the next compound we are working to biosynthesize. As we expect completion of the process for psilocybin in the upcoming days, we believe that we can fast track the process for DMT, as it uses the same steps to biosynthesize the compounds. Our team of leading scientists have done an amazing job in getting us to this stage and we are excited about the results we are seeing.” Stated Joel Shacker CEO of the Company.

Core One Labs Applauds Health Canada’s Amendments to Special Access Program, Allowing Physicians to Request Patient Access to Psychedelic Treatments

Core One Labs Applauds Health Canada’s Amendments to Special Access Program, Allowing Physicians to Request Patient Access to Psychedelic Treatments

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – January 5, 2022 – Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “Company” or “Core One”) applauds Health Canada for its recent amendment to the Special Access Programme (SAP), which will now allow physicians to request patient access to psychedelic treatments, including psilocybin-assisted therapy.

The amendments under the SAP came into effect as of today, January 5, 2022, as published in the Canada Gazette, and allows physicians to request psychedelic treatments on behalf of their patients, on a case-by-case basis, for serious treatment-resistant or life-threatening conditions. This significant amendment has the potential to provide numerous Canadians struggling with serious mental health afflictions with alternative therapies where traditional treatments have failed, or where other treatments are unsuitable or are unavailable in Canada.

Canada’s SAP was designed with the purpose of allowing people access to new, potentially life-saving medications before they are formally approved for routine use in healthcare, however prior to today’s milestone amendment, psychedelic medications have been ineligible for Special Access Programme applications. Today’s regulatory amendment will enable Canadian physicians to apply for psychedelic therapies in a similar process as to how other investigational medications are accessed prior to formal drug approval.

The amendment to SAP by Health Canada is an historic milestone in Canada’s approach to treating mental health conditions and signifies a growing recognition of the important and growing body of research that supports the efficacy of psychedelics and psychedelic-assisted therapies in treating mental health afflictions. According to Health Canada, access to psychedelic treatments will be provided where there is sufficient data to support the safety and efficacy of the targeted drug for a patient’s specific condition.

Under the SAP patients are not eligible to make direct application for access to psychedelic therapies, only licensed healthcare practitioners who are authorized under the laws of a province or territory to treat patients with a prescription drug may file requests through the SAP.

“This is an incredibly important milestone for Canada,” stated Joel Shacker, Core One CEO. “Health Canada’s amendment to the Special Access Program, has the potential to improve the lives or numerous Canadians suffering from mental health afflictions, including major depression, end-of-life anxiety and even addictions and historical traumas. It also provides doctors and their patients a safe, legal and regulated process for providing alternative treatments to mental health patients that desperately seek alternatives to otherwise failing contemporary modalities. Core One applauds Health Canada’s serious approach to mental health reform, and feels a brighter future is in near sight for many Canadians. Well done, Canada!”

In addition to applauding the historic amendments made by Health Canada to the SAP, the Company also announces that, further to its press release dated December 22, 2021, the Company has removed the voluntary pooling restrictions on the 5,814,000 common shares issued in connection with its acquisition of New Path Laboratories Inc., which includes 114,000 common shares issued to certain third parties who provided administrative services necessary to complete the Transaction.

The Company further announces that is has granted a total of 2,144,000 Restricted Share Units (the “RSUs”) to certain eligible consultants, directors, officers, and employees under its 10% rolling Restricted Share Unit Plan. The RSUs will vest in four (4) months. All the RSUs (and any common shares issuable upon redemption) will be subject to applicable securities law hold periods.

Core One Labs Acquires New Path Laboratories

Core One Labs Acquires New Path Laboratories

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – December 23, 2021 – Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “Company” or “Core One”) is a research and development company focused on bringing psychedelic medicines to market through the development and production of API grade psychedelic compounds, the advancement of psychedelic assisted treatments, and the integration of novel delivery system technology. The Company is pleased to announce it has completed the acquisition (the “Transaction”) of all of the outstanding share capital of New Path Laboratories Inc. (“New Path”).

Based in British Columbia, New Path is dedicated to the development and licencing of natural health products and dietary supplements incorporating functional mushrooms to help support every day biological functions in the maintenance of good health. New Path’s vertical integration model will allow it to grow, develop, and distribute its natural health products and dietary supplements from spore to sale. New Path’s equipment and infrastructure along with its proprietary mycelium process allow for the low-cost production of its products.

New Path currently has two retail components, Nue Mindset and Forest Garden Mushrooms, both of which specialize in functional, non-psychedelic, mushroom products. Nue Mindset, which is currently awaiting Health Canada’s Natural Health Product Number approval, produces a Lion’s Mane mushroom powder infused with Vitamin B3, to assist in improving cognitive function. The Lion’s Mane mix has received pre-orders from both local and online retail outlets. Concurrently, Forest Garden produces an immune boosting capsule line made from Chaga, Cordyceps, Reishi, Maitake and Lion’s Mane mushrooms. New Path also manufactures a simple to use and easy to distribute Lion’s Mane mushroom grow kit. Forest Garden plans to sell its products through Nue Mindset’s already established retail channels.

Medicinal mushrooms are ranked as a Top 10 Food Trend by Whole Foods. They have been used as a health aid, mainly in eastern medicine, for over 2000 years. At present, functional mushrooms such as Chaga, Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Maitake, Cordyceps and Turkey Tail are quickly becoming the latest superfood trend. Mushrooms act as antibacterial immune system enhancers and help to improve brain health and increase cognitive abilities. Functional mushrooms contain important bioactive compounds and can even help to lower cholesterol. Importantly, animal studies have also suggested that compounds in the functional mushroom Chaga have shown to selectively kill cancer cells and help stimulate the immune system. These benefits along with proactive health care and plant-based lifestyle changes suggest that it can be expected that North America will witness significant growth in the functional mushroom market.

Joel Shacker, CEO of the Company stated, “This acquisition further extends the Company’s presence in the functional mushrooms space and also will allow the Company to generate sales revenue by virtue of adding retail distribution channels to its business model and reach an exponentially growing consumer base.”

Transaction Structure

The Transaction was completed pursuant to a share purchase agreement among the Company, New Path and the shareholders of New Path (the “Definitive Agreement”) dated effective December 22, 2021.
