In some embodiments, the present invention provides tissue grafts, such as vascularized bone grafts, and methods for preparing and using such tissue grafts. In some embodiments the tissue grafts are made using pluripotent stem cells, such as autologous pluripotent stem cells. In some embodiments, the tissue grafts are made by creating a digital model of a tissue portion to be replaced or repaired, such as a bone defect, partitioning the model into two or more model segments, and then producing tissue graft segments having a size and shape corresponding to that of the model segments. Such tissue graft segments may be assembled to form a tissue graft having a size and shape corresponding to that of the tissue portion to be replaced or repaired.

ILC2 cells play a role in the pathogenesis of graft versus host disease (GvHD) and idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS), both conditions associated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Infusion of IL-33 activated ILC2 cells into patients with ongoing GvHD or IPS, or prior to onset of GvHD or IPS in susceptible patients, substantially ameliorates the disease and improves survival.

The disclosure generally relates to methods, cells, and compositions for preparing cardiac extracellular matrix. In particular, provided herein are methods for preparing a cardiac extracellular matrix using SUSD2 High fibroblasts and SUSD2 High myofibroblasts.

Compositions disclosed herein, and methods of use thereof included those for treating or preventing sepsis in a subject in need, including methods of extending of the survival of a subject suffering from sepsis, and reduction of organ dysfunction or failure due to sepsis. Methods of treating or preventing sepsis in a subject in need includes administering compositions comprising early apoptotic cells or early apoptotic cell supernatants. Compositions and methods of use thereof may reduce the negative proinflammatory effect accompanying sepsis. Further, anti-inflammatory cytokine release may be reduced. In certain instances, compositions may include additional agents.

Embodiments provide swallowable devices, preparations and methods for delivering viable cells (VC) into the GI tract including GI wall tissue or other tissue site. Particular embodiments provide a swallowable device such as a capsule for delivering VC into an intestinal wall or other site. The VC can be contained within a tissue-penetrating shell disposed in the capsule that protects the VC as they pass through the GI tract until they are inserted into GI tract tissue or other location. The shell desirably has shape, size and material consistency to be contained in a swallowable capsule, delivered from the capsule into solid tissue by the application of force on the shell and biodegrade within the solid tissue to release the VC into the tissue. Within the shell or other structure the VC can be maintained in a viability-sustaining gel that preserves the viability of the VC for selected time periods.
