METHOD COMPRISING CONTACTING TISSUE WITH A CROSS-LINKABLE POLYESTER PREPOLYMER
The present inventions in various aspects provide elastic biodegradable polymers. In various embodiments, the polymers are formed by the reaction of a multifunctional alcohol or ether and a difunctional or higher order acid to form a pre-polymer, which is cross-linked to form the elastic biodegradable polymer. In preferred embodiments, the cross-linking is performed by functionalization of one or more OR groups on the pre-polymer backbone with vinyl, followed by photopolymerization to form the elastic biodegradable polymer composition or material. Preferably, acrylate is used to add one or more vinyls to the backbone of the pre-polymer to form an acrylated pre-polymer. In various embodiments, acrylated pre-polymers are co-polymerized with one or more acrylated co-polymers.

METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR TREATMENT OF PENILE DEFECTS
Compositions for use in treating penile defects, including erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease. Compositions include penile stem cells and isolated penile stem cells substantially free of red blood cells, additives such as amnion, amniotic fluid, extracellular matrix components, growth factors, anti-inflammatories, antioxidants, wound healing agents, and collagenases. Also provided are methods of treating said penile defects in a patient, including implanting a composition of penile stem cells or platelet rich plasma derived from the penis into a patient. Methods include implanting a composition of amnion and/or amniotic fluid into a patient for a penile defect. Also provided are methods of isolating penile stem cells substantially free of red blood cells by providing a whole blood specimen obtained from the penis of a subject; separating the whole blood into fractions containing penile stem cells and the red blood cells from the specimen; and collecting the penile stem cell fraction.
