Focused mainly on stem-cell research, the company is developing a treatment for synovial sarcoma, a rare but deadly form of tissue cancer.
The company developed a new group of enzymes — specifically, catalysts that spur DNA repair during the cell-replication process — which it will continue to research and develop at the center. Anthony Capobianco, president and cofounder of Nashville-based StemSynergy, said the company will make the Cool Springs spot its second location.
 
“We are excited to expand our company’s research operation by moving into the Cool Springs Life Sciences Center. The facility is Grade A space with an existing environment for innovative science and technology,” Capobianco said in a statement. A spokesman for the company said StemSynergy had no further comment on Monday.

The Cool Springs Life Sciences Center, or CSLSC, was built in 2002 and has a campus-like setup in order to promote research collaboration and sharing of resources among organizations. It is home to bone-repair company BioMimetic Therapeutics and the Vanderbilt Center for Neuroscience Drug Discovery.

Other companies located in the CSLSC include Pluris Research, which develops consumer medical-surgical products; NextGxDx, a genetic testing service for healthcare providers; and Ratliff Histology Consultants, which does contract histology research.
