Abstract: The present invention is directed to a methods for the promotion of autophagy and/or proteasome activation in a subject by administering a cell culture conditioned media (CCM) composition. The present invention also provides methods for reducing symptoms of aging and treating diseases or conditions including Alzheimer's disease and lung fibrosis.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of producing compositions including embryonic proteins. The method includes culturing cells under hypoxic conditions on a biocompatible surface in vitro. The culturing method produces both soluble and non-soluble fractions, which may be used separately or in combination to obtain physiologically acceptable compositions useful in a variety of medical and therapeutic applications.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of producing compositions derived from culturing cells under hypoxic conditions on a biocompatible surface in vitro. The culturing method produces both an extracellular matrix composition and a conditioned culture medium composition, which may be used separately or in combination to obtain physiologically acceptable compositions useful in a variety of medical and therapeutic applications.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of inhibiting cancer cell growth or proliferation by contacting the cancer cell with an extracellular matrix (ECM) composition. Also provided are methods of delivering a chemotherapeutic agent to a cancer cell by contacting a cancer cell with an extracellular matrix composition containing a chemotherapeutic agent. Also provided are compositions containing ECM and a chemotherapeutic agent.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a methods for the stimulation of hair, lash and/or nail growth by the administration of extracellular matrix (ECM) and/or conditioned culture media (CCM) compositions in combination with active agents such as minoxidil and bimatoprost. The combination of hypoxic CCM and an active agent acts to promote hair, lash and/or nail growth and/or promote hair follicle development and/or activate or stimulate on an area of the skin when administered to the region of skin or tissue in need of growth or repair in a subject.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of producing extracellular vesicles compositions from conditioned culture medium (CCM) compositions. The method includes culturing cells under hypoxic conditions on a biocompatible surface in vitro. The culturing method produces both soluble (CCM) and non-soluble fractions. Extracellular vesicles are derived from the soluble fraction (the CCM) produced by the cells cultured under hypoxic conditions and may be used in a variety of medical and therapeutic applications.

Abstract: Novel products comprising conditioned cell culture medium compositions and methods of use are described. The conditioned cell medium compositions of the invention may be comprised of any known defined or undefined medium and may be conditioned using any eukaryotic cell type. Once the cell medium of the invention is conditioned, it may be used in any state. Physical embodiments of the conditioned medium include, but are not limited to, liquid or solid, frozen, lyophilized or dried into a powder. Additionally, the medium is formulated with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier as a vehicle for internal administration, applied directly to a food item or product, or formulated with a salve or ointment for topical applications. Also, the medium may be further processed to concentrate or reduce one or more factors or components contained within the medium.
