(Nasdaq: SILO) (“Silo” or “the Company), a diversified developmental-stage biopharmaceutical and cryptocurrency treasury company, today announced that the Japan Patent Office has granted patent number 7683882 to Silo’s research and licensing partner Columbia University for the invention titled “Prophylactic efficacy of serotonin 4 receptor agonists against stress,” exclusively licensed to Silo by Columbia University.
