Provided herein are stable liquid sealant formulations comprising fibrin monomers and a reversible fibrin polymerization blocking agent, methods of preparing and using the formulations.

Compositions comprising a reverse-temperature sensitive hydrogel comprising a biopolymer such as a polysaccharide and a synthetic polymer, and a compound in an amount that reversibly inhibits respiratory enzyme complex I, and methods of using the composition, are provided.

A sheet structure comprising two joined extracellular matrix (ECM) tissue or sheet layers and a physiological sensor disposed therebetween; the ECM tissue being derived from a mammalian tissue source that includes small intestine submucosa (SIS), urinary bladder submucosa (UBS), stomach submucosa (SS), urinary basement membrane (UBM), liver basement membrane (LBM), amniotic membrane, mesothelial tissue, placental tissue and cardiac tissue.

Disclosed are apparatus, compositions, and methods for promoting regeneration of tissue on a subject such as a wounded, damaged, or injured appendage, or within a subject such as a wounded, damaged, or injured organ. The disclosed apparatus, composition, and methods include or utilize wearable sleeves and regenerative compositions.

System and methods for stimulating cartilage formation at a first tissue site through a second tissue site is presented. The system includes a fluid source for supplying a therapeutic solution, a reduced pressure source for supplying reduced pressure, a fluid delivery manifold for deploying adjacent the first tissue site, and a vacuum manifold for deploying within the second tissue site. The fluid delivery manifold extends between a proximal end fluidly coupled to the fluid supply and a distal end having at least one aperture for delivering the therapeutic solution to the defect adjacent the articulating surface of the first tissue site. The vacuum manifold extends between a proximal end fluidly coupled to the reduced pressure source and a distal end having at least one aperture for delivering the reduced pressure to the first tissue site adjacent the opposing surface of the first tissue site.

Disclosed is a wound treatment that includes collagen and a gelatin-reducing agent. Also disclosed is a wound dressing including a substrate, collagen, and a gelatin-reducing agent. The collagen and gelatin-reducing agent may be present in any suitable a weight ratio relative to one another, such as a weight ratio of about 0.25:1 to about 4:1 with respect to one another. Also disclosed is a method for promoting wound healing including administering collagen and a gelatin-reducing agent to a wound in need of treatment.

A non-cellular root canal filler comprises a tetrahydroisoquinoline compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate of the compound or the salt, and a dental tissue regeneration promotion kit comprises a pretreatment agent comprising a serine protease, and the non-cellular root canal filler.

Dressings for treating a tissue site with negative pressure are disclosed, which may include a dressing having multiple layers and incorporating a material adapted to neutralize proteolytic enzymes. In one example embodiment, a dressing may include a first layer comprising a hydrophobic gel having a plurality of apertures. A material adapted to neutralize proteolytic enzymes may be applied to a surface of the first layer. The dressing may further include a second layer comprising a fenestrated film and coupled to the first layer. Additionally, the dressing may include a third layer comprising a manifold, which in some instances may be a polymeric foam. The dressing may further include a fourth layer comprising a polymer drape.

Provided herein are tissue grafts, and in particular human placenta-derived tissue grafts and methods and articles for the manufacture and use thereof.

Methods are described herein for facilitating tissue regeneration in humans and other large organisms, and kits therefor. Application of an inhibitor of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) to injured tissue may reduce fibrosis and/or scarring during the wound healing process. Patient care for a large number of fibrotic diseases which affect organ function may be ameliorated by such treatment. Kits for application of the FAK inhibitor may include a hydrogel formulation encapsulating the FAK inhibitor.
