The present disclosure relates to heterogeneous cell compositions derived from canine or feline uterine tissue and methods of producing and use thereof. In some aspects, the heterogeneous cell compositions comprise a mixture of mesenchymal progenitor cells and epithelial progenitor cells. In some aspects, the heterogeneous cell compositions are used as an autologous or allogeneic treatment for the treatment of diseases such as chronic kidney disease, atopic dermatitis, immune mediated arthritis, hepatitis, liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease, osteoarthritis, intravertebral disc disease, keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye), pancreatitis, fibrosis, sclerosis, amyloidosis, immune mediated polyarthritis or wounds in canines and felines.

Provided is a method for obtaining female germline stem cells from follicular aspirates.

An endometrial polyp stem cell is disclosed in the present invention. The endometrial polyp stem cell is isolated from an endometrial polyp tissue, expresses vimentin, CD13, CD29, CD44, and CD90, and has no expression of CD1q, CD3, CD34, and CD45.

Methods of treating endometrial dysfunction are described including retrieval of endometrial cells including endometrial stem cells from a fertile donor and transplantation of endometrial cells or tissue into a host suffering from endometrial dysfunction. In certain embodiments, methods include genetic modification, tissue culturing, or cryopreservation of the endometrial cells prior to transplantation. In various aspects, endometrial cells are retrieved from an individual during peak fertility and banked for autologous transplantation at a later time.
