  • Patent number: 8202724
    Abstract: A method of ex-vivo expanding a population of stem cells, while at the same time inhibiting differentiation of the stem cells. The method comprises ex-vivo providing the stem cells with conditions for cell proliferation and with at least one copper chelator in an amount and for a time period for permitting the stem cells to proliferate and, at the same time, for reducing a capacity of the stem cells to differentiate.

  • Patent number: 6962698
    Abstract: A method of expanding a population of cells, while at the same time inhibiting differentiation of the cells, the method includes the step of providing the cells with conditions for cell proliferation and, at the same time, for reducing a capacity of the cells in utilizing cooper. The method can be executed both in-vivo and ex-vivo. A method of inducing differentiation in a population of cells, the method includes the step of providing the cells with a transition metal chelator which binds copper and which is effective in inducing cell differentiation.

  • Patent number: 6887704
    Abstract: A cell population cultured ex-vivo in a culture medium under conditions permitting cells of the cell population to proliferate and, at the same time, reducing a capacity of the cells in utilizing cooper, the cells are hence expanded yet not further differentiated as compared to ex-vivo seeded cells from which the cell population developed.

  • Patent number: 6783775
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a biologically active serum-derived composition of matter (SDF), having a low molecular weight, being electrically charged at acidic pH and having absorption at 280 nm. The molecular weight of said SDF was determined by electron spray mass spectrometry and is of 316 Da. SDF of the present invention or its complex with ceruloplasmin (CP) have several therapeutic properties. For example, SDF or its complex with CP is capable of inducing terminal cell differentiation of leukemic cells, which as a result, may lose their ability to proliferate and their ability for self cell renewal. Further, SDF or the complex with CP is capable of stimulating the proliferation of early, normal progenitor cells and inhibiting enhanced angiogenesis. In addition, SDF or its complex with CP is capable of ex vivo expanding normal stem and progenitor cells.
