    摘要: Production of beta-cells from stem cells from pluripotent stem cells have always been significantly lacking in at least one of the following properties: 1) functional properties related to insulin-production and glucose signaling response, 2) mature phenotype such as biochemical markers or cell structures, 3) efficiency in production of differentiated cells. Described herein is multistep differentiation protocol which substantially overcomes all of the existing limitations. Pluripotent stem cells, including induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can be differentiated using an embryoid body (EB) formation step, followed by B maturation via endothelial cells (EC) co-culturing and incubation with a sequential series of bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-related growth factor cocktails. The resulting cells displayed functional properties, including insulin-production and glucose signaling response, and mature phenotype of C-peptide expression.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for the targeted delivery of therapeutic cells to a target tissue. In several embodiments, the therapeutic cells are captured by an antibody that is coupled to a magnetic particle, which is in turn coupled to an antibody directed against a specific marker expressed by a target tissue. In some embodiments, the therapeutic cells comprise the target tissue is damaged or diseased cardiac tissue. In several embodiments, in conjunction with an applied magnetic field, the methods, in combination with the compositions, yield enhanced delivery, of the therapeutic cells to the target tissue, thereby resulting in repair and/or regeneration of the target tissue. Also disclosed are methods for the non-invasive detection of immune responses to transplanted cells or organs.

    摘要: An earphones system providing insert detection, volume limiting, and equalization features for use with audio players or systems, including systems that provide external sound treatment to individuals suffering from tinnitus, is described. The earphones system may include an audio player or may be useable with an audio player operative to provide audio signals (e.g., for the treatment of tinnitus). Also described is a hearing aid system providing insert detection that operates by sensing changes in temperature, skin conductance, pressure or strain, or changes in sound. The hearing aid system is operative to send insert detection information to an external device such as a computer or mobile phone. The external device is configured to generate an alarm or other notification alerting a user that the hearing aid has come out the ear. Data concerning the insertion of the hearing aid may also be collected for further analysis.
