Embodiment 1

[0207] Obtain cells from postpartum tissue

[0208] In this study, cell populations from placental and umbilical tissue were obtained. Obtain postpartum umbilicus and placenta at birth at full gestation or preterm. Cells were harvested from 5 independent umbilical and placental tissue donors. Different cell isolation methods were tested for their ability to generate 1) cells with the potential to differentiate into cells with different phenotypes, or 2) cells with the potential to provide key trophic factors available to other cells and tissues.

[0209] Methods and Materials

[0210] Umbilical cell derivation. Umbilical cords were obtained from Disease Research Exchange International (NDRI, Philadelphia, PA). Tissues were obtained after normal delivery. The cell separation protocol was performed aseptically under a laminar flow hood. To remove blood and debris, phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was used in the presence of antifungals and antibiotics (100 units / ml penicill...

Embodiment 2

[0242] Production of lyophilized stem cell lysates

[0243]The aim of this study was to provide a method for the production of lyophilized stem cell lysates. This method consistently allows protein harvesting from lysed stem cells. The amount of total protein (57.53±38.69 pg / cell) correlated with the hUTC harvest density (R--Sq(adj)=71.5%). The hMSC lysate yielded 107.29 pg total protein / cell. The growth factor bFGF was present in lyophilized hUTC lysates from 6 independent production batches at an average of 3.09 ± 1.06 pg / μg total protein. SDS-PAGE analysis of hUTC lysates showed that the band pattern of the protein was consistent between independent production batches, before and after lyophilization, and lyophilization into synthetic biomaterials. The present method allows reproducible production of lyophilized material containing growth factors for tissue regeneration.

Embodiment 3

[0281] Analysis of factors present in cell lysates by multiplex ELISA assay

[0282] Materials and methods

[0283] Preparation of cell lysates. Approximately 25 million passage 11 human umbilical cord-derived cells (hUTC) were seeded into gelatin-coated T225 flasks. Because this number of cells was necessary to complete the study, for trypsinization, the flask was split into two parts, which were combined to make cell lysates. Cells were in the range of approximately 70-95% confluency. Flasks were trypsinized with 0.05% trypsin / EDTA for 5 minutes until cells began to float from the dish. Trypsinization was inactivated using Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Growth Medium containing 15% serum. Cells were pelleted in growth medium and then resuspended in a total volume of 40 ml PBS. Cells were washed 3 times with PBS to remove residual FBS from the growth medium. This was done by centrifuging the cells at 1.5 RPM for 5 minutes and then resuspending the cells in 40 ml PBS until 3 ...

Abstract

Stem cells products having the potential to support cells of a soft tissue lineage, and methods of preparation and use of those stem cell products are disclosed. The invention also relates to methods for the use of such stem cells products in the regeneration and repair of soft tissue, and in cell-based therapies for of soft tissue conditions.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to the fields of mammalian cell biology and cell culture. In particular, the present invention relates to stem cell products with the potential to support cells of the parenchymal lineage, and methods of making and using these stem cell products. The invention also relates to methods of using these stem cell products in soft tissue regeneration and repair and cell-based therapy of soft tissue disorders. Background of the invention [0002] Soft tissue disorders, including medical conditions such as soft tissue injuries, are quite common. Injuries to soft tissues such as blood vessels, skin or musculoskeletal tissue are quite common. One example of a fairly common soft tissue injury is that of the pelvic floor. This is a potentially serious medical condition that can occur during labor or as a result of labor complications that can damage the vesicovaginal fascia. Such damage can lead to a cystocele, a type of bladder...
