    摘要: For repair of cartilage damaged as part of the degenerative effects of osteoarthritis, the inventors have found that the human mesenchymal stem cell approach makes it possible to: (1) regenerate both shallow cartilage chondral defects and full thickness cartilage defects (osteochondral lesions); (2) broaden the suitable clinical population to routinely include middle-aged patients; (3) eliminate the use of autologous tissue grafts (mature cartilage and the periosteal covering) to repair an articular cartilage injury; (4) regenerate other types of injured cartilage such as patellar and spinal disk cartilage; (5) regenerate articular joint cartilage in older patients with osteoarthritis; and (6) form new cartilage and subchondral bone which fully integrate into the adjacent normal tissue.

    摘要: An implant for repair of a tissue defect comprises a plurality of physiologically compatible load-bearing sutures for securing under tension tissue adjacent to the defect to be repaired, the sutures for supporting a tissue reparative cell mass in the defect and a tissue reparative cell mass supported thereby. The sutures have a central portion encapsulated in a cell containing matrix which is contracted under a tensile load by the cells thereof and formed into a mat sheet during the contraction. Spring metal wires hold the sutures in tension during the contraction. The matrix is a collagen gel or other material which the cells contract, the cells comprising human mesenchymal stem cells. The mat sheet is then rolled into a spiral roll with the sutures extending from opposite roll ends to form the desired implant. Different embodiments are disclosed.

    摘要: The invention provides an expression cassette comprising a DNA sequence encoding amino acids 1-99 of human preproenkephalin, a DNA sequence encoding a precursor of a carboxy-amidated peptide flanked by dibasic cleavage sites and optionally a DNA sequence encoding a marker protein (such as Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP)) all in operable linkage and under control of a promoter. Where the encoded precursor of a carboxy-amidated peptide is an agonist for an opioid receptor, the invention further provides a method of treating neuropathic pain by administering the gene transfer vector comprising such an expression cassette to a patient. The invention also provides a method for detecting a peptide having a desired effect comprising introducing a library of DNA sequences encoding one or more precursors of carboxy-amidated peptides into host cells; expressing the carboxy-amidated peptides encoded in the library to provide expression products; and screening from the polypeptide expression products for the desired effect.

Proteolytic enzyme recycle steps are disclosed that can be used to further reduce costs.
