Methods and compositions for preventing or treating incontinence, overactive bladder, or menstrual cramping in a subject are described. A method can include providing a composition. The composition can include a modification agent. The modification agent can include a strain of Lactobacillus or a ferment or a metabolite thereof. The modification agent can provide neuromodulation activity by up-regulating at least one of maoA enzymes, maoB enzymes, and grin-1 genes. The method can also include administering the composition to the subject to prevent or treat incontinence, overactive bladder, or menstrual cramping. In some aspects, the modification agent can decrease a level of extracellular ATP in a target environment.

The subject invention provides topical therapeutic compositions and methods of their use for enhanced healing of wounds, including burns, and scars of the skin. Specifically, in one embodiment, the subject invention provides materials and methods for reducing the healing time of skin wounds and for reducing the appearance of scars. The subject invention utilizes topical compositions comprising microbial growth by-products and, optionally, a topically-acceptable carrier. In specific embodiments, the microbial growth by-products are biosurfactants.

Magnetic cells plus a magnet are used to treat ED and other bodily lesions, whereby the magnetic cells are held in at or near the location of the lesion with a magnetic field for a period of time until efficacy is established. The cells can be any cell type, including stem cells, autologous cells, recombinant cells, combinations thereof and the like.

The present invention provides for methods and devices suitable for producing a transplantable cellular suspension of living tissue suitable for promoting tissue regeneration in an epithelium-related procedure, as well as compositions produced therefrom. The cellular suspension can include viable and functioning cells at various stages of differentiation, including undifferentiated/progenitor cells and differentiated cells, as well as those in between. In certain embodiments, the cellular suspension can be subjected to a stress to induce a heat shock response therein, or be exposed to an exogenously supplied agent such as heat shock protein or a fragment thereof, hyaluronic acid, platelet-enriched plasma, and/or growth factors. The cellular suspension can be applied directly to a patient's recipient site for in vivo regeneration, or be cultured or seeded to a matrix for in vitro growth/regeneration.
