TISSUE MATRICES INCORPORATING MULTIPLE TISSUE TYPES
The present disclosure provides tissue products produced from extracellular tissue matrices. The tissue products can include acellular extracellular matrices including combinations of different tissue types. The combination can harness various properties of the different tissues to provide improved composite structures with desired mechanical and/or biologic properties.
Fetal support tissue products and methods of use
Methods of treating a complex wound by administering to a complex wound in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a fetal support tissue product to treat the complex wound. Methods of treating a complex lower extremity ulcer by administering to a complex lower extremity ulcer in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a fetal support tissue product to treat the complex lower extremity ulcer. Methods of reducing or preventing scar formation from granulation tissue by administering a fetal support tissue product to granulation tissue. Methods of repairing a spina bifida defect by administering to the defect in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of an umbilical cord product.
SYSTEM FOR SHAPING AND IMPLANTING BIOLOGIC INTRAOCULAR STENT FOR INCREASED AQUEOUS OUTFLOW AND LOWERING OF INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE
A system for deploying an implant cut from a biological tissue into an eye of a patient including a delivery device and a nose cone assembly, a tubular shaft projecting from the distal end region of the nose cone and comprising a lumen. Related devices, systems, and methods are provided.
MULTIPLE COMPONENT GRAFTS FOR TREATING TISSUE DEFECTS AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING SAME
Multiple component grafts are provided for treatment of tissue defects and comprise two or more components, each of which is a tissue-derived matrix and at least two of which are derived from different types of tissue. For example, a first component may be a matrix derived from cartilage tissue such as cartilage fibers with or without viable cells, cartilage particles with or without viable cells, or combinations of any two or more such cartilage-derived matrices. A second component may be a matrix derived from bone tissue such as mineralized or demineralized cortical bone fibers, viable cancellous bone matrix (e.g., cryopreserved or lyophilized chips, particulates, powder, sheets, putty, flowable fluid, etc.), demineralized or demineralized cancellous bone matrix (chips, particulates, powder, sheets, putty, flowable fluid, etc.), or combinations of any two or more of such bone-derived matrices. Also provided are methods for making and using such multiple component grafts.
Collagen Nucleation Inhibitors
Solutions containing collagen monomers and saccharides inhibit the nucleation and growth of collagen fibrils. The solutions stabilize high concentrations of soluble collagen monomers, improving their incorporation into pre-existing tissues or collagen networks, thereby providing therapeutic applications of collagen for cosmetic treatments, wound healing, and injury repair involving damaged extracellular matrix. Pharmaceutical formulations, medical devices, and kits containing the solutions are provided.
MECHANOACTIVE MATERIALS AND USES THEREOF
A mechanoactive material includes a composite textile that includes a textile substrate formed from a plurality of fibers assembled in a fiber assembly pattern and a material deposited via an additive manufacturing technique onto and/or between the fibers of the textile substrate based on an additive manufacturing pattern. The composite textile includes at least one prestress and/or residual stress and/or exhibits a change in at least one mechanical property, material property, or structure in response to at least one endogenous and/or exogenous stimulus.
TISSUE MATRICES INCORPORATING MULTIPLE TISSUE TYPES
The present disclosure provides tissue products produced from extracellular tissue matrices. The tissue products can include acellular extracellular matrices including combinations of different tissue types. The combination can harness various properties of the different tissues to provide improved composite structures with desired mechanical and/or biologic properties.
Thermosensitive phosphazene-based polymer comprising sulfate moiety, and preparation method and use thereof
Provided is a thermosensitive phosphazene-based polymer including an amino acid ester moiety, a polyethyleneglycol moiety, and a moiety including a sulfate group linked directly or by a linker in a predetermined ratio, a method of preparing the same, and a hydrogel-formable composition including the same. For example, a hydrogel formed from the composition may be used for tissue regeneration or drug delivery or used as a storage, a body tissue regeneration inducer, or a filler in a body.
BIOACTIVE SOFT TISSUE IMPLANT AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE AND USE THEREOF
A bioactive filamentary structure includes a sheath coated with a mixture of synthetic bone graft particles and a polymer solution forming a scaffold structure. In forming such a structure, synthetic bone graft particles and a polymer solution are applied around a filamentary structure. A polymer is precipitated from the polymer solution such that the synthetic bone graft particles and the polymer coat the filamentary structure and the polymer is adhered to the synthetic bone graft particles to retain the graft particles.
BIOLOGIC BREAST IMPLANT
The present disclosure provides tissue products produced from adipose tissues, as well as methods for producing such tissue products. The tissue products can include acellular tissue matrices produced in multiple layers for treatment of a breast.
