| 20090169597 | TREATMENT OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISC DEGENERATION USING HUMAN UMBILICAL CORD TISSUE-DERIVED CELLS - Methods for treating a patient having a disease or condition related to IVD degeneration are provided. The methods comprise administering cells obtained from human umbilical cord tissue, or administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising such cells or prepared from such cells. In some embodiments, administering the cells promotes repair and regeneration of degenerated IVD tissue in the patient. Pharmaceutical compositions for use in the inventive methods, as well as kits for practicing the methods are also provided. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20100158877 | TREATMENT OF LUNG AND PULMONARY DISEASES AND DISORDERS - Compositions and methods of using cells derived from umbilical cord tissue to stimulate and support lung tissue angiogenesis, to improve blood flow to lung tissue, to regenerate, repair, and improve lung tissue damaged by lung disease, disorder and/or injury, and to protect lung tissue from damage caused by lung disease, disorder and/or injury in a patient. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100210013 | POSTPARTUM CELLS DERIVED FROM UMBILICAL CORD TISSUE, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME - Cells derived from human umbilical cords are disclosed along with methods for their therapeutic use. Isolation techniques, culture methods and detailed characterization of the cells with respect to their cell surface markers, gene expression, and their secretion of trophic factors are described. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100247499 | hUTC AS THERAPY FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - Methods for treating Alzheimer's disease, or the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, are provided. Some embodiments are to methods for treatment comprising administering cells obtained from human umbilical cord tissue, or administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising such cells or prepared from such cells, such as cell derivatives. Some embodiments are to methods for treatment comprising hUTC. Pharmaceutical compositions for use in the inventive methods, as well as kits for practicing the methods are also provided. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100260843 | REGENERATION AND REPAIR OF NEURAL TISSUE USING POSTPARTUM-DERIVED CELLS - Cells derived from postpartum umbilicus and placenta are disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions, devices and methods for the regeneration or repair of neural tissue using the postpartum-derived cells are also disclosed. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20110223205 | TREATMENT OF AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS USING UMBILICAL DERIVED CELLS - This invention relates to methods of treating amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In particular, the invention provides for methods of treating amyotrophic lateral sclerosis by administering umbilical cord tissue-derived cells, an effective amount of a substantially homogenous population of umbilical cord tissue-derived cells or a pharmaceutical composition comprising umbilical cord tissue-derived cells to a patient. | 09-15-2011 |
| 20110280838 | TREATMENT OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISC DEGENERATION USING HUMAN UMBILICAL CORD TISSUE-DERIVED CELLS - Methods for treating a patient having a disease or condition related to IVD degeneration are provided. The methods comprise administering cells obtained from human umbilical cord tissue, or administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising such cells or prepared from such cells and optionally a hydrogel. In some embodiments, administering the cells promotes repair and regeneration of degenerated IVD tissue in the patient. Pharmaceutical compositions for use in the inventive methods, as well as kits for practicing the methods are also provided. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20120014921 | TREATMENT OF STROKE AND OTHER ACUTE NEURAL DEGENERATIVE DISORDERS VIA INTRANASAL ADMINISTRATION OF UMBILICAL CORD-DERIVED CELLS - This invention relates to methods of treating stroke by intranasal administration of umbilical cord tissue-derived cells, which are isolated from mammalian umbilical cord tissue substantially free of blood or expanded in culture from a cell isolated from mammalian umbilical cord tissue substantially free of blood, are capable of self-renewal and expansion in culture, and do not produce CD117 and/or telomerase. The methods of the invention regenerate, repair and improve neural tissue and improve behavior and neurological function in stroke patients. | 01-19-2012 |
