Provided herein are enzymatically decellularized cells, and methods of producing said cells, that can be used in a scaffold. The scaffolds featured herein are biocompatible and can comprise decellularized cells that have been modified to express a bioactive agent or molecule.

Tissue adhesive coatings for drug coated balloon

A therapeutic formulation is described for a drug delivery balloon comprising a therapeutic formulation which includes a therapeutic agent and an adhesion additive. The adhesion additive promotes adhesion of the therapeutic formulation a vessel wall of a subject. A system and a method of manufacturing a system including an expandable member having a working length with the therapeutic formulation disposed along at least a portion of the working length is also provided.

A METHOD FOR MAKING A POROUS SCAFFOLD SUITABLE FOR USE IN REPAIR OF OSSEOUS, CHONDRAL, OR OSTEOCHONDRAL DEFECTS IN A MAMMAL

A method for making a porous devitalised scaffold suitable for use in repair of osseous, chondral, or osteochondral defects in a mammal comprises the steps of providing micronized extracellular matrix (ECM) tissue, mixing the micronized extracellular matrix with a liquid to provide a slurry, and freeze-drying the slurry to provide the porous scaffold. A porous scaffold suitable for use in repair of osseous, chondral, or osteochondral defects in a mammal and comprising a porous freeze-dried matrix formed from micronised decellularised extracellular matrix tissue is also described.
