  • Publication number: 20100178700
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to novel thymic cellular populations and, more particularly, to novel thymic epithelial cellular populations. Most particular, the present invention is directed to novel thymic epithelial progenitor cell populations. The cellular populations of the present invention are useful in a wide range of clinical and research settings including, inter alia, the in vitro or in vivo generation of thymic epithelial cell populations and the therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of a range of conditions via the administration of these cells. Also facilitated is the design of in vitro based screening systems for testing the therapeutic impact and/or toxicity of potential treatment or culture regimes to which thymic epithelial cells may be exposed.

  • Publication number: 20080020221
    Abstract: Systems and methods of generating a recycled output are disclosed. This recycled output may include a fabric produced by fusing reclaimed plastic bags. The reclaimed plastic bags are fused together using a material manufacturing system. This system is typically configured to heat the plastic bags to a temperature wherein the plastic bags fuse together but do completely melt. Some embodiments include the addition of different types of plastic or non-plastic materials to the recycled output. Also disclosed are systems and methods of controlling textures and patterns within the recycled output.
