One aspect of the present disclosure can include a therapeutic composition useful for treatment of a genitourinary disorder. The composition can be derived from a culture media having been in contact with a population of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells for a sufficient time period necessary to endow therapeutic activity in the culture media. The therapeutic property endowed to the culture media is the ability to promote structural and functional recovery of a dysfunctional organ or biological tissue associated with the genitourinary disorder.

The usage of a stem cell in preparation of a tooth-like structure is provided. And a culture medium, a method for preparing an epithelial-like cell, a kit for preparing an ameloblast, a method for preparing an ameloblast are also provided. Specifically, the culture medium comprises a basal medium, which is DMEM/F12 medium; N2 supplement; retinoic acid; and BMP-4.

Methods for preparing capsules, such as micro- and/or nanocapsules from all-aqueous emulsions are described herein. The method includes mixing, combining, or contacting a first electrically charged phase containing a first solute with at least an optionally charged second phase containing a second solute. The solutes are incompatible with each other. The electrostatic forces between the two solutions induce the formation of droplets of a dispersed phase in a continuous phase. The droplets are then solidified to form the capsules.
