Publication number: 20120213752Abstract: Isolated stromal cells, containers comprising isolated stromal cells transfected with exogenous DNA, and methods of treating patients suffering from diseases characterized by a bone cartilage or lung defect are disclosed. The methods comprise obtaining a bone marrow sample from a donor, isolating stromal cells from the sample, and administering the isolated stromal cells to the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2012Publication date: August 23, 2012Inventors: Darwin J. Prockop, Ruth F. Pereira, Dennis B. Leeper, Michael D. O'Hara, Joseph Kulkosky, Donald Phinney, Alexey Laptev, Jose Caro

Publication number: 20100008964Abstract: Methods of treating patients who are suffering from a disease, disorder or condition characterized by a bone cartilage or lung defect are disclosed. The methods comprising the step of intravenous administration of stromal cells isolated from normal syngeneic individuals or intravenous administration of stromal cells isolated from the patient subsequent to correction of the genetic defect in the isolated cells. Implant devices comprising a container that has at least one membrane surface and stromal cells isolated from bone marrow that comprise a gene construct are disclosed. The gene construct in the stromal cells comprises a nucleotide sequence that encodes a beneficial protein operably linked to regulatory elements which function in stromal cells. Methods of treating individuals with diseases, disorders or conditions which can be treated with a beneficial protein, including diseases, disorders or conditions characterized by gene defects are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2009Publication date: January 14, 2010Applicant: THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITYInventors: Darwin J. Prockop, Ruth F. Pereira, Dennis B. Leeper, Michael D. O'Hara, Joseph Kulkosky, Donald Phinney, Alexey Laptev, Jose Caro
