Abstract: Disclosed are methods, compositions of matter, and protocols useful for the induction of a therapeutic immune modulatory response through administration of exosomes derived from a stem cell source. In one embodiment, said stem cell source is endometrial regenerative cells. Specifically, in one embodiment stem cell derived exosomes are used as a method of treating an autoimmune condition such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, or systemic lupus erythromatosis.

Abstract: The invention provides pluripotent stem cells and methods for making and using pluripotent stem cells. Pluripotent stem cells, among other things, can differentiate into various cell lineages in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo. Pluripotent stem cells, among other things, can also be used to produce conditioned medium.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, compositions of matter, and cells, useful for the treatment of autism, social integrative disorders, and various cognitive abnormalities. The invention discloses, inter alia, means of inducing angiogenesis and immune modulation either in sequence or parallel in order to substantially ameliorate or reverse the progression of autism. The use of stem cells, and cells naturally possessing or endowed with angiogenic and anti-inflammatory activity are disclosed for autism either alone or in combination with various therapeutic interventions.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of preparing and using placentally-derived stem cells and compositions useful for the treatment of cancer. Said stem cells and compositions function through inducing a “guided differentiation” program in cancer cells, thereby reducing malignancy. Further extension of the invention pertains to augmenting ability of administered cells to induce differentiation through the co-administration of known differentiation inducing agents. Within the context of this disclosure, methods for inducing host responses to cancer are also described.

Abstract: A method of increasing the growth of stem cells by mixing the stem cells with a growth medium that has been conditioned by an incubation with placental tissue. The method increases the expansion of the stem cell population.
