  • Isolation And Use Of Pluripotent Stem Cell Population From Adult Neural Crest-Derived Tissues
    Publication number: 20190010455
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of isolating a substantially homogenous population of pluripotent stem cells from adult neural crest tissue (e.g., periodontal ligament) as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising such isolated pluripotent stem cells. Methods of inducing the isolated pluripotent stem cells into specific cell lineages, such as neurogenic and retinogenic lineages, are also described. The isolated pluripotent stem cells find use in various regenerative medicine applications and the treatment of degenerative diseases.

  • METHODS OF ISOLATING AND USING STEM CELLS
    Publication number: 20110236356
    Abstract: Methods of isolating and using stem cells from neural crest, e.g. periodontal ligament, isolated stem cell and therapeutic cell cultures, and therapeutic applications for a variety of conditions. The cells and cell cultures are especially useful for autologous administration.
