CICM cells and non-human mammalian embryos prepared by nuclear transfer of a proliferating differentiated cell or its nucleus

InactiveUS6235970B1Simple procedureSimplifying and facilitating procedureNervous disorderMuscular disorderPresent methodNuclear transfer
An improved method of nuclear transfer involving the transplantation of donor differentiated cell nuclei into enucleated oocytes of the same species as the donor cell is provided. The resultant nuclear transfer units are useful for multiplication of genotypes and transgenic genotypes by the production of fetuses and offspring, and for production of isogenic CICM cells, including human isogenic embryonic or stem cells. Production of genetically engineered or transgenic mammalian embryos, fetuses and offspring is facilitated by the present method since the differentiated cell source of the donor nuclei can be genetically modified and clonally propagated.

Treating back pain by re-establishing the exchange of nutrient and waste

InactiveUS20040210209A1Prevent and minimize migrationPromote tissue ingrowthInternal osteosythesisMedical devicesDiseaseBack pain
The intervertebral disc is avascular. With aging, endplates become occluded by calcified layers, and diffusion of nutrients and oxygen into the disc diminishes. The disc degenerates, and pain ensues. Conduits are delivered and deployed into the intervertebral disc to re-establish the exchange of nutrients and waste between the disc and bodily circulation to stop or reverse disc degeneration and relieve pain. The intervertebral disc installed with semi-permeable conduits may be used as an immuno-isolated capsule to encapsulate donor cells capable of biosynthesizing therapeutic molecules. The semi-permeable conduits establish the exchange of nutrients and therapeutic molecules between disc and bodily circulation to treat a disease without using immuno-suppressive drugs.

Contemplated compositions and methods are directed to the use of microvesicles from an optionally recombinant donor cell to impart a desirable effect to a recipient cell. In certain preferred aspects, RNA of the microvesicles is employed to achieve the desirable effect. For example, microvesicles are used in vitro to increase the number of passages of a cell growing in a medium, reduce serum and / or growth factor requirements of a cell growing in a medium, and / or delay differentiation of a cell growing in a medium. Further preferred aspects include use of the microvesicles as therapeutic agents in which RNA, a membrane protein, and / or a cytosolic protein encapsulated in or coupled to the microvesicle provide a therapeutic effect. Additionally, diagnostic methods are contemplated in which RNA of a microvesicle isolated from a mammal is associated with a condition of the mammal.

Non-lethal conditioning methods for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

The present invention relates to the use of a non-lethal preparative regimen for the treatment of a patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease. In a clinical trial, an HIV-positive patient was conditioned by non-lethal doses of irradiation and a chemotherapeutic drug prior to receiving donor bone marrow cells from a baboon. While long-term engraftment of donor cells was not observed, the non-lethal preparative conditioning regimen was able to reduce the viral burden and improved the clinical outcome. Such method is useful for treatment of patients with advanced acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
