    摘要: A “supplementary choroid plexus” comprising preferably a xenotransplant of choroid plexus cells from a neonatal mammal provides a steady supply of trophic factors for administration to a central nervous system in need of treatment for a neurological disease. Choroid plexus cells manufacture a range of trophic factors, particularly during fetal development. This neurotrophic factor therapy may be useful in treating clinical and subclinical neurodegenerative diseases particularly those in which the choroid plexus has often become atrophic. The xenotransplant is cloaked in a protective layer (such as of alginate) capable of concealing the foreign nature of the transplant. Lateral ventricles are the preferred implantation site, from where the trophic factors are carried through the neuropil by the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid.

    摘要: The invention relates to a novel method of administration, and device employed in the method, for administering a treatment species to the lungs of a recipient patient. The method involves introducing the device of the invention to the venous system of the patient, the size of the treatment species being such that, upon introduction to the venous system of the patient, the device will impact in a region of a lung capillary of the patient. The treatment species gains access to the lung and/or lung epithelia due to proteases associated with the treatments species. The application of the method to the treatment of cystic fibrosis is also claimed.
