    摘要: Disclosed are therapeutic treatment methods, compositions and devices for maintaining neural pathways in a mammal, including enhancing survival of neurons at risk of dying, inducing cellular repair of damaged neurons and neural pathways, and stimulating neurons to maintain their differentiated phenotype. In one embodiment, the invention provides means for stimulating CAM expression in neurons. The invention also provides means for evaluating the status of nerve tissue, including means for detecting and monitoring neuropathies in a mammal. The methods, devices and compositions include a morphogen or morphogen-stimulating agent provided to the mammal in a therapeutically effective concentration.

    摘要: The invention provides methods, compositions and devices for inducing tissue-specific regeneration in a mammal, or for stimulating proliferation of mammalian progenitor cells. The present methods, compositions and devices make use of osteogenic protein 1 (OP-1), which is appreciated herein as a tissue morphogen, i.e., a substance competent to induce tissue-specific morphogenesis of mammalian body tissues in addition to bone and/or cartilage. Alternatively, the present methods, compositions and devices make use of other naturally-occurring or biosynthetic proteins sharing a defined structural and functional relationship with OP-1 and thus appreciated herein also to function as tissue morphogens. Optionally, OP-1 or a related protein can be used alone or when adsorbed on a support matrix which provides an anchoring substratum for proliferation and/or differentiation of progenitor cells during tissue-specific morphogenesis. In another embodiment, OP-1 or a related protein is used to stimulate mammalian progenitor cells ex vivo, such that the stimulated cells, when disposed in vivo in a mammal, undergo tissue-specific morphogenesis to produce replacement tissue at a nonskeletal tissue locus in need thereof (i.e., at a nonbony or noncartilaginous tissue locus in need thereof).

    摘要: The invention provides methods for alleviating immune cell mediated inflammatory responses to injury to mammalian tissue. The present methods make use of osteogenic protein 1(OP-1), which is appreciated herein as tissue morphogen, i.e., a substance competent to induce tissue-specific morphogenesis of mammalian body tissues in addition to bone and/or cartilage. Alternatively, the present methods make use of other naturally-occurring or biosynthetic proteins sharing a defined structural and functional relationship with OP-1 and thus appreciated herein also to be tissue morphogens. The invention is particularly adapted to alleviating tissue damage associated with ischemia-reperfusion injury or hyperoxia injury in mammals, including humans.
