| 20090269315 | METHODS OF USING ADIPOSE TISSUE-DERIVED CELLS IN THE TREATMENT OF CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONS - Cells present in processed lipoaspirate tissue are used to treat patients, including patients with cardiovascular conditions, diseases or disorders. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Accordingly, in a preferred method, cells present in processed lipoaspirate are placed directly into a recipient along with such additives necessary to promote, engender or support a therapeutic cardiovascular benefit. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20090297488 | METHODS OF USING REGENERATIVE CELLS IN THE TREATMENT OF PERIPHERAL VASCULAR DISEASE AND RELATED DISORDERS - Cells present in adipose tissue are used to treat patients, including patients with PVD and related diseases or disorders. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Accordingly, in a preferred method, cells present in adipose tissue are placed directly into a recipient along with such additives necessary to promote, engender or support a therapeutic benefit. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20090304644 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANIPULATION OF REGENERATIVE CELLS SEPARATED AND CONCENTRATED FROM ADIPOSE TISSUE - The invention provides methods for manipulating regenerative cells from adipose tissue. Specifically, it provides methods for enrichment of desired cells and enhancement of their therapeutic effects. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100015104 | GENERATION OF ADIPOSE TISSUE AND ADIPOCYTES - The invention provides novel methods by which adipose tissue, preadipocytes, and adipocytes can be generated for research purposes, and methods for identifying cell populations that can proliferate and differentiate into adipocytes in vivo. The invention further provides a means for the in vivo derivation of “designer” or “customized” adipose tissue, preadipocytes, and adipocytes. Also provided are methods for identifying agents that affect adipocytes and adipose tissue, as well as the agents themselves. In particular, the present invention allows for creation of tissues and cells that can be used to screen for agents useful for treating human disorders associated with adipose tissue, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100015204 | CELL CARRIER AND CELL CARRIER CONTAINMENT DEVICES CONTAINING REGENERATIVE CELLS - The present invention relates to a device comprising a cell carrier portion containing regenerative cells, e.g. stem and progenitor cells, and a cell carrier containment portion. The device is useful for the treatment of bone related disorders, including spinal fusion related disorders and long bone or flat bone related defects. The device may be used in conjunction with disclosed automated systems and methods for separating and concentrating regenerative cells. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100233139 | METHODS OF USING ADIPOSE TISSUE-DERIVED CELLS IN AUGMENTING AUTOLOGOUS FAT TRANSFER - Methods of treating patients for conditions such as breast augmentation, soft tissue defects, and urinary incontinence, are described. The methods include removing adipose tissue from a patient, processing a portion of the adipose tissue to obtain a substantially isolated population of cells comprising disaggregated adipose-derived stem cells, mixing the concentrated population of adipose-derived cells comprising disaggregated adipose-derived cells with a portion of unprocessed, intact, non-disaggregated adipose tissue to form a composition, and administering the composition to the patient from which the adipose tissue was removed. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20100303774 | METHODS OF USING REGENERATIVE CELLS IN THE TREATMENT OF MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS - Regenerative cells present in adipose tissue are used to treat patients, including patients with musculoskeletal diseases or disorders. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of regenerative cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Accordingly, in a preferred method, regenerative cells present in adipose tissue are placed directly into a recipient along with such additives necessary to promote, engender or support a therapeutic musculoskeletal benefit. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100330673 | METHODS OF MAKING ENHANCED, AUTOLOGOUS FAT GRAFTS - Cells present in processed lipoaspirate tissue are used to treat patients. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Compositions that are administered to a patient include a mixture of adipose tissue and stem cells so that the composition has a higher concentration of stem cells than when the adipose tissue was removed from the patient. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110003388 | METHODS OF MAKING ENHANCED, AUTOLOGOUS FAT GRAFTS - Cells present in processed lipoaspirate tissue are used to treat patients. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Compositions that are administered to a patient include a mixture of adipose tissue and stem cells so that the composition has a higher concentration of stem cells than when the adipose tissue was removed from the patient. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20110158968 | METHODS OF MAKING ENHANCED, AUTOLOGOUS FAT GRAFTS - Cells present in processed lipoaspirate tissue are used to treat patients. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient.
