Identifying a more sustainable source for a health-boosting metabolite

Aug. 13, 2025

Researchers at Seneca Polytechnic have found that one person's trash can truly be somebody else’s treasure.

This discovery began with a collaboration between the Seneca Centre for Innovation in Life Sciences (SCILS) and Wellesley Therapeutics, a pharmaceutical research and development company.

Wellesley Therapeutics manufactures products that contain N-Acetylglucosamine (NAG), a metabolite that can improve human health by acting as both an anti-inflammatory and an immunomodulator.
