Safe Harbor Statement

This news release contains statements that involve expectations, plans or intentions (such as those relating to future business or financial results, new features or services, or management strategies) and other factors discussed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. These statements are forward-looking and are subject to risks and uncertainties, so actual results may vary materially. You can identify these forward-looking statements by words such as "may," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "intend," "plan" and other similar expressions. Our actual results, such as the Company's ability to finance, complete and consolidate acquisition of IP, assets and operating companies, could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors not within the control of the company such as a result of various factors, including future economic, competitive, regulatory, and market conditions.

The company disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Statement About Cannabis Markets

The use, possession, cultivation, and distribution of cannabis is prohibited by federal law.  This includes medical and recreational marijuana.  Although certain states have legalized medical and recreational cannabis, companies and individuals involved in the sector are still at risk of being prosecuted by federal authorities. Further, the landscape in the cannabis industry changes rapidly.  What was the law last week is not the law today and what is the law today may not be the law next week.  This means that at any time the city, county, or state where cannabis is permitted can change the current laws and/or the federal government can supersede those laws and take prosecutorial action. Given the uncertain legal nature of the cannabis industry, it is imperative that investors understand that the cannabis industry is a high risk investment. A change in the current laws or enforcement policy can negatively affect the status and operation of our business, require additional fees, stricter operational guidelines and unanticipated shut downs.

Neurotrope Receives Research Grant From the FRAXA Research Foundation to Fund Pre-Clinical Fragile X Syndrome Behavioral Studies

Studies to evaluate the effects of bryostatin-1 in a Fragile X Syndrome mouse model over a thirteen week period

NEWARK, N.J., - (http://www.financialnewsmedia.com News Alert) - Neurotrope, Inc. (OTCQB: NTRP) today announced that eurotrope BioScience, Inc., its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, has received a grant from the FRAXA Research Foundation, Inc. ("FRAXA") to fund a pre-clinical Fragile X Syndrome ("FXS") behavior study for its lead proprietary drug candidate, bryostatin, at FRAXA's purpose built laboratory located at the University of Chile in Santiago, Chile.

FRAXA was founded in 1994 by three parents of children with FXS to support scientific research aimed at finding a treatment and a cure for this disease. FXS is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability and the most common known genetic cause of autism or autism spectrum disorders.  FRAXA funds grants and fellowships at universities all over the world and has funded more than $24 million in scientific research. 

Under the terms of the grant, FRAXA will provide full funding for a preclinical study to evaluate the behavioral effects of bryostatin-1 in a FXS mouse model. Bryostatin is a potent activator of Protein Kinase C (PKC), which Neurotrope believes is a viable therapeutic approach for the treatment of FXS. Preclinical research at the Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute (BRNI), which formed the basis for Neurotrope receiving Orphan Drug Designation for bryostatin, has suggested that treatment with bryostatin can mature synapses and increase the number of synaptic connections resulting in improved learning and memory.

Neurotrope is developing bryostatin under a licensing agreement with BRNI. The Company was recently granted orphan drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for bryostatin in the treatment of FXS.

"We are pleased to have received a grant from FRAXA to fund this important research as we continue working toward our goal of bringing an effective treatment to the market for patients and their families who deal with consequences of this severe genetic disorder" stated Charles S. Ramat, President and CEO of Neurotrope. "Having obtained orphan drug designation for bryostatin in FXS, we now look forward to accelerating our research efforts as we develop our clinical program.  We are excited to work with FRAXA at its laboratory in the University of Santiago to garner additional preclinical evidence of the therapeutic value for bryostatin in treating FXS."

About Fragile X Syndrome

FXS is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability and the most common known genetic cause of autism or autism spectrum disorders. There is currently no FDA approved treatment for FXS available on the market today.  Symptoms of FXS include moderate to severe learning disabilities, behavioral disorders, seizures and cognitive impairment.  FXS is caused by a partial or a full mutation of the FMR1 gene.

About Neurotrope

Neurotrope Bioscience Inc., the operating subsidiary of Neurotrope, Inc., was formed in October 2012 principally to license, develop and commercialize various novel therapeutic and diagnostic technologies from the Blanchette Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute (BRNI) which are focused on the development of conventional small molecules that are extraordinarily potent in the activation of the enzyme PKCe.  PKCe has been shown to play a central role in the regrowth or repair of nervous tissues, cells or cell products. Neurotrope's pipeline, under its license from BRNI, includes the drug candidate, bryostatin, for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, and a minimally invasive, diagnostic biomarker analysis system which would assess the presence of Alzheimer's in patients. In addition, Neurotrope has a world-wide, exclusive license agreement with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai located in New York City to utilize its proprietary information and data package for the use of bryostatin-1 in the treatment of Niemann-Pick Type C Disease, a rare disease, mostly of children who are afflicted with Alzheimer-like symptoms. Also, the Company, under its BRNI license, has the rights to develop the licensed technology for other cognitive dysfunctions, including orphan diseases, such as FXS.

About The Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute

Located in Morgantown, WV, BRNI, at West Virginia University, is a unique, independent, non-profit institute dedicated to the study of memory and finding solutions to memory disorders. BRNI was founded in 1999 in memory of Blanchette Ferry Hooker Rockefeller, an Alzheimer's patient and mother of U. S. Senator John D. Rockefeller IV. BRNI is operated in alliance with West Virginia University as well as in collaboration with other academic institutions.

Forward-Looking Statements

MagneGas Signs Joint Venture for Major Expansion of Subsidiary, "Equipment Sales And Services Inc."

TAMPA, Fla., - (http://www.financialnewsmedia.com News Alert) - MagneGas Corporation ("MagneGas" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: MNGA) is a leading technology company. Included in the Company's IP portfolio is a patented process that converts liquid waste into MagneGas® fuel. Today the Company announced that its subsidiary, Equipment Sales and Services Inc. (ESSI) has signed a contract to open a sales and service outlet into North Central Florida.

A 50/50 joint venture was established with Suwannee Ironworks ("Suwannee"), an existing client. This allows for the distribution of MagneGas® in areas not currently serviced by the Company, as well as opening up additional potential revenue opportunities from gas and welding supplies. The expanded location also allows MagneGas to capitalize on authorized distributor contracts with Lincoln and Miller, which would not be possible without an already an existing distributorship.  The Company expects that this new joint venture will launch MagneGas® into North Florida, from Tallahassee to Jacksonville, as well as from Southern Georgia to Gainesville, FL.  MagneGas's subsidiary, ESSI, will provide the inventory, proprietary distributorships, accounting and billing management while Suwanee will provide the commercial location, shipping, transportation, and personnel to operate the new location for the joint venture.  The Company believes this will allow them to service existing MagneGas clients with all their industrial needs which was previously difficult due to distance..

"ESSI was purchased as a platform to not only sell MagneGas®, but to service industrial welding needs as well. Our new location will allow us to service existing MagneGas clients which was previously impracticable due to distance," stated Jack Armstrong, Executive Vice President Operations for MagneGas and ESSI.  "We purchased ESSI to expand MagneGas sales and growth. Many clients prefer a 'one stop shop' and having a local physical location should attract additional clients to MagneGas® fuel. The official opening is scheduled for July 1 but our sales and marketing efforts have already commenced."

Ernie Caparelli, one of the owners of Suwanee Ironworks, commented, "Through our many business relationships in the area, we anticipated being able to provide a significant impact on MagneGas's sales growth and service in this new market. Local knowledge is critical to success in North Florida.  Suwannee Ironworks has been in business for over 30 years and our long standing contacts will allow us to gain immediate traction in the market."

Brian Linton, owner of The Recycling Center, Inc. stated, "The Recycling Center has used MagneGas®  for our scrap yards since 2012 and we love the gas.   We have multiple locations and locally we feel comfortable allowing ESSI to supply us with MagneGas®.   We are always looking to expand and would love for ESSI to transition into other gases, safety products and hard goods."

The MagneGas IR App is now available for free in Apple's App Store for the iPhone or iPad http://bit.ly/AfLYww and at Google Play http://bit.ly/Km2iyk for Android mobile devices.

Neurotrope Receives FDA Orphan Drug Designation for Bryostatin in the Treatment of Fragile X Syndrome

NEWARK, N.J.,- (http://www.financialnewsmedia.com News Alert) - Neurotrope, Inc. (OTCQB: NTRP) today announced that Neurotrope BioScience, Inc., its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, (the "Company") has been granted orphan drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its lead proprietary drug candidate, bryostatin, in the treatment of Fragile X Syndrome (FXS).

Bryostatin is a potent activator of Protein Kinase C (PKC), which the Company believes is a viable therapeutic approach for the treatment of Fragile X Syndrome.  Neurotrope is developing bryostatin under a licensing agreement with the Blanchette Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute (BRNI).

"We are pleased to have received orphan drug designation for bryostatin for the treatment of FXS which represents an area of significant unmet need for patients and families who live with the consequences of this genetic disorder," said Charles S. Ramat, President and Chief Executive Officer of Neurotrope, Inc. "One of the key strategies for our Company's future is the licensing of novel therapeutics to develop treatments for orphan diseases such as FXS.   In keeping with this strategic imperative, we have also initiated preclinical work with bryostatin for the treatment of Niemann-Pick type C, a rare devastating genetic disorder in children.  As we progress our clinical development programs for Fragile X and NPC we continue to work towards building a robust portfolio of drug development candidates in orphan disease indications."

Orphan drug designation is granted by the FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD) to novel drugs or biologics that treat a rare disease or condition affecting fewer than 200,000 patients in the U.S. The designation provides the drug developer with a seven-year period of U.S. marketing exclusivity, as well as tax credits for clinical research costs, the ability to apply for annual grant funding, clinical research trial design assistance and waiver of Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) filing fees. The OOPD also works on rare disease issues with the medical and research communities, professional organizations, academia, governmental agencies, industry, and rare disease patient groups.

Also commenting on the announcement, Dr. Daniel Alkon, Scientific Director of BRNI and Chief Scientific Officer of Neurotrope BioScience, Inc., stated, "We are very encouraged by the pre-clinical data we acquired in a Fragile X mouse study that suggests treatment with bryostatin can mature synapses and increase the number of synaptic connections resulting in improved learning and memory." 

About Fragile X Syndrome

FXS is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability and the most common known genetic cause of autism or autism spectrum disorders. There is currently no FDA approved treatment for FXS available on the market today.  Symptoms of FXS include moderate to severe learning disabilities, behavioral disorders, seizures and cognitive impairment.  FXS is caused by a partial or a full mutation of the FMR1 gene.

About Neurotrope

Neurotrope Selects Worldwide Clinical Trials to Commence Services for Phase 2B Trial of Bryostatin for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease

NEWARK, N.J., - (http://www.financialnewsmedia.com News Alert) -Neurotrope, Inc. (OTCQB: NTRP) today announced that Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc., its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, (the "Company") has selected Worldwide Clinical Trials (WCT) to commence the pre-patient enrollment activities for the conduct of a Phase 2b trial of the Company's compound bryostatin-1 for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.  WCT is a leading global clinical research organization with substantial experience in conducting trials in Alzheimer's disease.

The Company and WCT signed a letter of intent on March 30, 2015 outlining the scope of the services that WCT will provide. The Company will pay WCT approximately $300,000 for the services and related third-party costs.

Neurotrope Bioscience plans to submit its protocol to the FDA for this clinical trial in approximately 150 patients with moderately severe to severe Alzheimer's disease early in the second quarter of 2015.  The Company expects to begin enrollment for the six month study sometime during the third quarter pending the FDA's review of the protocol, and plans to enter into a definitive agreement with WCT for services related to the study at the appropriate time subject to available resources.

Neurotrope Bioscience has an exclusive license to develop and commercialize bryostatin, a potent modulator of an enzyme called protein kinase C epsilon (PKCe), which has been studied extensively by the Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute (BRNI) as a possible treatment of cognitive disorders. Based upon a number of BRNI pre-clinical and autopsy-validated human tissue studies, PKCe deficits have been implicated as a potential cause of Alzheimer's disease. The Company is approaching the treatment of Alzheimer's disease through the activation of PKCe.  In animal models of Alzheimer's disease, activation of PKCe has been shown to improve learning and memory, induce synaptogenesis or growth of new synapses and prevent neuronal death.

Charles S. Ramat, President and Chief Executive Officer of Neurotrope, Inc. commented on the selection: "We are extremely pleased to have entered into a letter of intent with WCT to conduct the activities required prior to enrolling patients for our planned Phase 2b Alzheimer's trial in moderately severe to severe Alzheimer's patients.   WCThas strong relationships with numerous clinical sites with experience in Alzheimer's disease and possesses a great expertise in conducting Alzheimer's clinical trials which is critical to Neurotrope as we move through this important process.  We are confident that they will play a key role for us throughout bryostatin's clinical development as we continue to move towards its eventual commercialization for the treatment of this debilitating disease."

About Neurotrope's Approach to Alzheimer's

In contrast to the industry's historic focuses on removal of amyloid plaque and Tau pathology in the brain – which have resulted in numerous, failed clinical trials – Neurotrope is following a new and novel approach. Specifically, research conducted in animal models by the Company's Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Dan Alkon, of the Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute, has shown that PKCe, when stimulated, initiates a cascade of enzymatic events, ultimately improves synaptic function, induces formation of new synapses and inhibits cell death. The stimulation of PKCe is far upstream from the formation of plaques and tangles, which may be considered pathologic markers of AD, rather than causes. As a potent modulator of PKCe at low dose levels, bryostatin has been shown to stimulate this key enzyme, thus showing promise in restoring memory and learning function.

About Worldwide Clinical Trials


Worldwide Clinical Trials balances science, medicine, operational and commercial intelligence with strategic insight to manage drug development programs in nearly 60 countries. WCT combines recognized therapeutic expertise – most notably in central nervous system, cardiovascular and oncology clinical trial methodologies – with robust global operating and technology platforms, consultative leadership and a deep commitment to each client's unique needs to foster successful development of life-changing medicines.
