PERFUSABLE-TYPE DUAL PROXIMAL TUBULE CELL CONSTRUCT AND PRODUCING METHOD THEREOF FOR APPLYING IN VITRO ARTIFICIALRENAL TISSUE MODEL AND RENAL CELL THERAPY
The present disclosure is related to a perfusable-type bio-dual proximal tubule cell construct and a producing method thereof capable of applying an in vitro artificial organ model configured to include a first bioink comprising a decellularized substance derived from a mammalian kidney tissue and human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) and a second bioink comprising the decellularized substance and renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (RPTECs), wherein the first bioink and the second bioink are coaxial and printed in tubular constructs having different inner diameters.
According to the present disclosure, it is possible to use the renal proximal tubule-on-a-chip as a bioreactor capable of observing a biological drug reaction similar to a real drug by perfusing various drugs to the renal proximal tubule-on-a-chip.
MULTILAYER ENGINEERED HEART MUSCLE
A method for manufacturing a multilayer engineered heart muscle that includes (i) providing a liquid reconstitution mixture in a mould and (ii) culturing the mixture. The method includes a sequential addition of one or more further liquid reconstitution mixtures to obtain a multilayer engineered heart muscle. The muscle ideally has the form of a patch, a pouch, or a cylinder. Furthermore, a multilayer engineered heart muscle having collagen, cardiac myocytes and non-myocytes originating from at least 2 layers is disclosed. The multilayer engineered heart muscle forms the basis for several in vitro and in vivo applications such as the production of a multilayer engineered heart muscle for use in a patient, for example for use in heart repair.
CELL PREPARATION FOR EXTEMPORANEOUS USE, USEFUL FOR HEALING AND REJUVENATION IN VIVO
The present invention relates to new plasma or new platelet-rich plasma preparations, new cell dissociation methods, new cell associations or compositions, a method of preparation thereof, a use thereof, devices for the preparation thereof and preparations containing such a platelet-rich plasma preparation and cell associations or compositions. Specifically, the invention provides plasma or platelet-rich plasma alone or in cell composition preparations for use in tissue regeneration and bone regeneration and pain reduction.
Cell preparations for extemporaneous use, useful for healing and rejuvenation in vivo
The present invention relates to new plasma or new platelet-rich plasma preparations, new cell dissociation methods, new cell associations or compositions, a method of preparation thereof, a use thereof, devices for the preparation thereof and preparations containing such a platelet-rich plasma preparation and cell associations or compositions. Specifically, the invention provides plasma or platelet-rich plasma alone or in cell composition preparations for use in tissue regeneration and bone regeneration and pain reduction.
TISSUE USE FOR REPAIR OF INJURY
The present disclosure describes methods of treating an injury in a subject using placental tissue streamers, engineered tissue placental tissue hybrids, suture placental tissue hybrids, placental tissue patch hybrids, and tissue hybrids, and the use of these compositions to repair, treat, or support an injury or degenerative process in a subject.
SURFACE FUNCTIONALIZED IMPLANT AND METHOD OF GENERATING THE SAME
The present invention provides a method for functionalizing a medical implant surface to promote osseointegration upon implantation in bone tissue.
BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER COMPRISING ENGINEERED ENDOTHELIAL CELLS
The present invention relates, in part, to blood-brain barrier-like tissues that comprise engineered E40RF1+ endothelial cells, and to various compositions and methods useful for making and using such blood-brain barrier-like tissues—both in vitro and in vivo.
Patch graft compositions for cell engraftment
Compositions and methods of transplanting cells by grafting strategies into solid organs (especially internal organs) are provided. These methods and compositions can be used to repair diseased organs or to establish models of disease states in experimental hosts. The method involves attachment onto the surface of a tissue or organ, a patch graft, a “bandaid-like” covering, containing epithelial cells with supporting early lineage stage mesenchymal cells. The cells are incorporated into soft gel-forming biomaterials prepared under serum-free, defined conditions comprised of nutrients, lipids, vitamins, and regulatory signals that collectively support stemness of the donor cells. The graft is covered with a biodegradable, biocompatible, bioresorbable backing used to affix the graft to the target site. The cells in the graft migrate into and throughout the tissue such that within a couple of weeks they are uniformly dispersed within the recipient (host) tissue. The mechanisms by which engraftment and integration of donor cells into the organ or tissue involve multiple membrane-associated and secreted forms of MMPs.
Cell preparations for extemporaneous use, useful for healing and rejuvenation in vivo
The present invention relates to new plasma or new platelet-rich plasma preparations, new cell dissociation methods, new cell associations or compositions, a method of preparation thereof, a use thereof, devices for the preparation thereof and preparations containing such a platelet-rich plasma preparation and cell associations or compositions. Specifically, the invention provides plasma or platelet-rich plasma alone or in cell composition preparations for use in tissue regeneration and bone regeneration and pain reduction.
BIOMATERIALS FOR ENHANCED IMPLANT-HOST INTEGRATION
The present disclosure provides patterned biomaterials having organized cords and extracellular matrix embedded in a 3D scaffold. According, the present disclosure provides compositions and applications for patterned biomaterials. Pre-patterning of these biomaterials can lead to enhanced integration of these materials into host organisms, providing a strategy for enhancing the viability of engineered tissues by promoting vascularization.
