| 20090098650 | COMPOSITIONS FOR THE IN VITRO DERIVATION AND CULTURE OF EMBRYONIC STEM (ES) CELL LINES WITH GERMLINE TRANSMISSION CAPABILITY AND FOR THE CULTURE OF ADULT STEM CELLS - The present invention describes novel compositions for deriving, maintaining and growing pluripotent and germ-line competent mammalian embryonic stem cells. The compositions of this invention refer to compositions comprising a 1) conditioned medium of a cell line expressing limited amounts of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), 2) conditioned medium from a cell line transfected with mammalian LIF and 3) a medium supplemented with recombinant rabbit LIF. The present invention describes novel compositions for deriving, maintaining and growing adult human stem cells and/or adult early progenitor cells, preferably under stroma-free conditions and without added LIF and/or cytokines or growth factors. The media of the present invention are used for the generation of pluripotent and germ-line competent embryonic stem cells of mammals of which these cells were not obtained up to now. The media of the present invention are used for the generation of adult human stem cells and/or adult early progenitor cells. The present invention is also directed to a novel rabbit LIF and to nucleotides encoding the rabbit LIF and methods for the expression of recombinant rabbit LIF in the | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090081187 | Pharmacological vitreolysis - A method of treating or preventing a disorder, or a complication of a disorder, of an eye of a subject comprising contacting a vitreous and/or aqueous humor with a composition comprising a truncated form of plasmin comprising a catalytic domain of plasmin (TPCD). TPCDs include, but are not limited to, miniplasmin, microplasmin and derivatives and variants thereof. The methods of the invention can be used to reduce the viscosity of the vitreous, liquefy the vitreous, induce posterior vitreous detachment, reduce hemorrhagic blood from the eye, clear or reduce materials toxic to the eye, clear or reduce intraocular foreign substances from the eye, increase diffusion of a composition administered to an eye, reduce extraretinal neovascularization and any combinations thereof. The method can be used in the absence of, or as an adjunct to, vitrectomy. | 03-26-2009 |

TPCDs include, but are not limited to, miniplasmin, microplasmin and derivatives and variants thereof. The methods of the invention can be used to reduce the viscosity of the vitreous, liquefy the vitreous, induce posterior vitreous detachment, reduce hemorrhagic blood from the eye, clear or reduce materials toxic to the eye, clear or reduce intraocular foreign substances from the eye, increase diffusion of a composition administered to an eye, reduce extraretinal neovascularization and any combinations thereof. The method can be used in the absence of, or as an adjunct to, vitrectomy. | 03-19-2009 |
