Abstract: Methods, systems, and compositions are provided for extracting bone marrow cells from bone obtained from deceased donors, for preparing the bone marrow for cryopreservation, and for obtaining desired cells from cryopreserved and fresh bone marrow. In some embodiments, the methods provide cryopreserved compositions having increased viability of bone marrow cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides composition and methods preparing a population of isolated MSCs for pharmaceutical application, the method comprising: providing a population of isolated MSCs; and synchronizing the population of isolated MSCs, wherein no more than 25% of the population of isolated MSCs are in the S phase of the cell cycle.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for the detection of DNAs in a sample, including single-stranded DNA, denatured double-stranded DNAs and DNA fragments for research and clinical diagnostic purposes. The methods and compositions disclosed herein may be used for preparing next generation sequencing libraries of highly fragmented DNA molecules isolated from biofluids (such as plasma, serum, saliva and urine), FFPE samples and ancient organisms. The methods involve the ligation of hairpin adaptors to the 3?-end Sand the 5?-end of the ssDNA.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for the detection of small RNAs in a sample. The methods and compositions disclosed herein may be used for preparing sequencing libraries of the small RNAs, fragments of RNAs and DNAs.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to, at least, a vacuum-assisted method for infiltrating cadaver bone with a cryoprotectant and a method for rapidly warming the cryopreserved cadaver bone for bone marrow processing.

Abstract: Described herein are methods of cell therapies. Also described herein are methods of generating donor derived T cells in an organ transplant recipient, by administering bone marrow stem cells to the organ transplant recipient about 1 to about 30 days after the organ transplant recipient receives one or more organ transplants.

Abstract: Wound healing is a complex homeostatic process in which several distinct types coordinate to repair a physical damage. Failure to close wounds contributes to the pathology of conditions like diabetes mellitus, particularly in the elderly. Presented herein are molecules, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for applying small RNA oligonucleotide technology to wound healing. Small RNA oligonucleotide approaches as disclosed herein provide a therapeutic strategy for improving both basal and pathological wound healing.

Abstract: A bone cutting assembly includes a manually actuated upper cutting element that carries a plurality of cutting blades configured to cut through frozen bone segments. A lower cutting element supports a bone segment to be cut and can include cutting blades aligned with the cutting blades of the upper cutting assembly. A pivoting linkage or a rack and pinion arrangement can be provided between the upper cutting element and a manually operated handle to provide sufficient mechanical advantage or leverage to allow an operator to manually cut through the bone.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention include the production and use of chemically modified RNAi agents (e.g., shRNAs) in gene silencing applications. The chemically modified RNAi agents disclosed herein have reduced immunostimulatory activity, increased serum stability, or both, as compared to a corresponding RNAi agent not having the chemical modification. Compositions containing chemically modified RNAi agents according to aspects of the present invention (including pharmaceutical compositions) and kits containing the same are also provided.
