| 20080317721 | Method for the Treatment of Retinopathy of Prematurity and Related Retinopathic Diseases - The present invention provides a method for treating retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and related retinopathic diseases. The method comprises administering to the retina of a mammal suffering from, or at risk of developing, retinopathy of prematurity or a related retinopathic disease an amount of cells from a vasculotrophic lineage negative hematopoietic stem cell population, effective to promote beneficial physiological revascularization of damaged areas of the retina and to ameliorate damage to the retina caused by the disease. Preferably, the mammal is a human patient. In one preferred embodiment, the lineage negative hematopoietic stem cell population is a lineage negative hematopoietic stem cell population comprising hematopoietic stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells (i.e., Lin− HSC). In another preferred embodiment, the lineage negative hematopoietic stem cell population is an isolated myeloid-like bone marrow (MLBM) cell population in which the majority of the cells are lineage negative and express CD44 antigen and CD11b antigen. As an alternative, for treatment of newborn infants, a lineage negative hematopoietic stem cell population can be isolated from umbilical cord vein blood. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090104695 | Stem Cells Culture Systems - The present invention concerns systems and methods for providing human cell cultures. Specific embodiments of the invention relate to cultures of feeder cells for use in stem cell technology, as well as cultures, culture systems and methods for maintenance and propagating of stem cells in an undifferentiated state as well as for the development of somatic cells cultures from stem cells, the somatic cell cultures being free of extraembryonic cells. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20110027333 | STEM CELL-DERIVED RETIN RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIAL CELLS - The present invention concerns RPE cells obtainable by directed differentiation from stem cell, particularly, human stem cells. It has been specifically found that culturing stem cells in the presence of one or more member of the TGFβ superfamily, such as Activin A) induced directed differentiation into mature and functional RPE cells. This was evidenced by the expression of markers specific to mature RPE cells, including MiTF-A, RPE65 or Bestrophin). In accordance with one particular embodiment, the cells are a priori cultured with nicotinamide (NA) which was found to augment the cells' response to the inductive effect of the one or more member of the TGFβ superfamily. The invention also provides methods of performing the directed differentiation, as well as methods for use of the resulting RPE cells. | 02-03-2011 |
