Governments and agencies in the US and EU have declared nuclear defense and radiation protection a critical priority. Rising geopolitical tensions, renewed nuclear strategies, and expanding civilian energy programs underscore the urgent need for effective countermeasures. USIL Therapeutics addresses this recognized global emergency with patented solutions designed to protect populations and strengthen resilience.
We are advancing two breakthrough formulations, UT-241 and UT-242, currently in development to deliver next-generation protection against ionizing radiation.

USIL Therapeutics has been selected by the European Space Agency (ESA) for an in-orbit validation mission on the International Space Station (ISS), conducted in partnership with Yuri GmbH. The study will test our full-body radioprotection and mitigation compound under microgravity and intense cosmic radiation, replicating some of the harshest conditions known to science to validate its stability and efficacy in space.
Funded by ESA, this project represents a breakthrough in dual-use biotechnology: bridging defense, healthcare, and space exploration. Insights from orbit will accelerate our path toward field-ready biological protection for soldiers, first responders, astronauts, and future space travelers, reinforcing resilience for both terrestrial crises and future space missions.

This pioneering study applies the RIANS model to skin fibroblasts from Marfan syndrome patients, revealing impaired DNA damage response due to cytoplasmic ATM sequestration—driven by mutated FBN1 and elevated TGF‑β—unveiling a new molecular basis for radiosensitivity in connective tissue disorders.
