| 20110034832 | Usage of Extracorporeal and Intracorporeal Pressure Shock Waves in Medicine - A shock wave applicator includes a shock wave generator and an asymmetrical reflector portion in a housing. Asymmetry of the reflector portion is combined with one or more wave generators to produce a variety of focal volumes and wave fronts for medical treatment. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110087157 | Use of Pressure Waves for Stimulation, Proliferation, Differentiation and Post-Implantation Viability of Stem Cells - Stem cells are proliferated with the application of acoustic pressure waves, including cambium cells of periosteum treated in-vivo with acoustic pressure waves. Following harvesting and viability assessment of in-vivo or in-vitro proliferated stem cells, acoustic pressure waves are applied to enhance in-vivo or in-vitro differentiation either before or after implantation of the stems cells to an organism. Acoustic pressure waves also stimulate an implantation site to enhance viability and to grow desired tissue. | 04-14-2011 |

| 20100184838 | Compositions and methods for retinal transduction and photoreceptor specific transgene expression - Adenovirus (Ad) vectors are here provided for treatment of ocular tissues as are suitable methods to transduce photoreceptor (PR) cells, the tissue associated with degeneration. Expression from CMV or chicken beta actin (CBA) promoters in neural retina were compared, and CBA was found to be 173-fold more potent than CMV. Further, the RGD domain in Ad penton was found to play a key role in RPE tropism. Deletion of the RGD domain coupled with the CBA promoter permitted transgene expression in neural retina approximately 667-fold more efficiently than with prior Ad5 vectors. Use of Ad vectors in combination with a 4.7 kb rhodopsin promoter enabled transgene expression exclusively in photoreceptor cells in vivo. | 07-22-2010 |
