摘要:
The invention is directed to a method for isolating stromal cells to form a therapeutic composition; and administering said therapeutic composition to the subject. A further embodiment of the invention is directed to therapeutic compositions comprising isolated stromal cells.
摘要:
The invention comprises a combination of biological elements that will naturally remodel in vivo based on applied mechanical forces. The final composition will possess mechanical properties similar to cartilage or a disc, and significantly less stiff than bone or implants comprised of metals or plastics. The equilibrium stress conduction will minimize unnatural forces on neighboring healthy discs.
摘要:
The invention is directed to a device for the concentration of fluids comprising a donor receptacle containing a fluid to be concentrated, the donor receptacle comprising a plunger; a receiving receptacle to receive the concentrated fluid, the receiving receptacle comprising a plunger; a concentrator device that is connected to the donor receptacle and the receiving receptacle; and a housing that encloses the donor and receiving receptacles and the concentrator device that the plungers of the donor and receiving receptacles are enclosed within chambers that are gas tight.
摘要:
A composite bone graft which comprises an allograft bone component; a synthetic bone substitute, wherein the synthetic bone substitute is in contact with the allograft bone component. The composite is arranged within a resorbable mesh casing.

摘要:
The invention is directed to a bone void filler comprising a scaffold or matrix. The scaffold or matrix may include a porous inorganic matrix component and/or a 3D-printed implantable device. The bone void filler may include a cellular component containing cells, some of which are capable of making extracellular matrix resembling native bone tissue. The bone void filler may include an organic matrix, such as, an organic biopolymer that aids in cell retention and renders the scaffold or matrix moldable. The bone void filler may include growth factors and/or cytokines. The bone void filler may include a clotting agent.

摘要:
The invention is directed to a therapeutic composition that includes a first cell preparation that includes isolated stromal cells of a first type and a second cell preparation that includes isolated stromal cells of a second type. The first and second cell preparations may include cultured cells. The stromal cells may include adipose stromal cells and bone marrow derived stromal cells. The therapeutic composition may include a blood component that includes one or more of platelet-poor plasma, concentrated platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, and whole blood.
摘要:
The invention is directed to a method for therapeutic repair of an injury to bone or tissue comprising providing a structural component, wherein the structural component repairs the injury; and providing a therapeutic fluid, wherein the therapeutic fluid is located within the structural component.
