Monday August 25, 2008 12:30 pm ET

MOUNTAINSIDE, NJ--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 25, 2008 -- National Stem Cell Holdings, Inc. (Other OTC:PROTD.PK - News) announces that it has changed its name to Proteonomix, Inc. (the "Company"), its trading symbol from NHGI to PROTD (the "Company") and 10:1 reverse split of its outstanding common stock and convertible preferred stock.

The new name and symbol reflect Proteonomix's core focus on proteomics (the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions) and the identification and commercialization of new proteins for use in therapeutics and cosmetics. The name change marks Proteonomix's turning point, from an R&D only company to a company which combines commercial product development and R&D. Proteonomix plans to commercialize its proprietary cell expansion line this year. The Company's multi-faceted R&D program has demonstrated results with more than ten patent applications and multiple products ready to enter the market. Additionally, The Company introduced its new cosmoceutical product line, through its subsidiary, Proteoderm, Inc., in July 2008.

Proteoderm plans to scale its proprietary proteins, derived from non-embryonic stem cells, into an extensive array of specialty skin care products. Thus far, Proteoderm has received encouraging response during the first public display of its skin care products at the recent International Anti-aging Conference in Washington D.C. For a full description of Proteoderm's skin care products, visit www.proteoderm.com.

The Board of Directors authorized a 10 to 1 reverse stock split on all issued common and convertible preferred stock. Management believes that the new corporate restructure, together with the name change, will position Proteonomix to raise capital in this very challenging financial environment for product commercialization and should enhance shareholder value by positioning Proteonomix for return to OTCBB market.

The Company will continue to keep shareholders notified on continuing progress at the next shareholders meeting for the fourth quarter of this year.
