摘要:
Embodiments of single component bioscaffolding systems formed of a hydrogel such as hyaluronic acid or salt thereof are described. The hyaluronic acid or salt thereof may be dissolved in a buffer, plasma, or combination thereof to minimize adverse immunogenic responses when applied to a treatment site. Additionally, the hydrogel component includes stem cells to facilitate angiogenesis or facilitate tissue repair and/or regeneration of ischemic tissue, particularly in compromised cardiac tissue. The bioscaffolding may also be formed on a stent or a cardiac medical device.
摘要:
Compositions, methods of manufacture and methods of treatment for post-myocardial infarction are herein disclosed. In some embodiments, the composition includes at least two components. In one embodiment, a first component can include a first functionalized polymer and a substance having at least one cell adhesion site combined in a first buffer at a pH of approximately 6.5. A second component can include a second buffer in a pH of between about 7.5 and 9.0. A second functionalized polymer can be included in the first or second component. In some embodiments, the composition can include at least one cell type and/or at least one growth factor. In some embodiments, the composition(s) of the present invention can be delivered by a dual bore injection device to a treatment area, such as a post-myocardial infarct region.

摘要:
Apparatus and methods are disclosed for supporting ischemic tissue of the heart using scaffolds that may be placed within the heart percutaneously. A scaffold assembly may include a layer of biocompatible material detachably secured to a placement rod, such that the placement rod may be used to urge the layer of biocompatible material through a catheter to adjacent an area of ischemic tissue. Anchors may secure the layer of material to the myocardium. Multiple layers of biocompatible material may be placed in the ventricle separately to form the scaffold. In some embodiments, a scaffold is formed or reinforced by injecting a polymer, such as a visco-elastic foam, around an inflatable member inflated within a ventricle.
摘要:
Disclosed are compositions with sustained-release carriers associated with at least two different types of growth factors and methods of fabrication and treatments thereof. In some embodiments, simultaneous release of the growth factors may be preferred while in other embodiments, sequential release of the growth factors may be preferred. Application of at least two growth factors to an injury site, e.g., compromised cardiac tissue caused by, for example, myocardial infarction or ischemic heart failure, may better mimic and induce the complex growth factor signaling pathways necessary to improve cardiac function. When applied to a patient after a myocardial infarction or ischemic heart failure, multiple growth factors within a sustained-release carrier platform or platforms may cause a synergistic effect on injected cells intending to alleviate left ventricle remodeling. Methods of treatment include percutaneous, sub-xiphoid, and open chest methods using catheters and/or syringes.
