Gregory Zeltser has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9814829
    Abstract: The disclosure provides an implantable bioartificial active secretion system for providing a physiological regulating secretion such as insulin necessary for functionality of a physiologic activity such as glucose metabolism of a living-being host. The system includes a housing implantable within the host, in fluidic communication with tissue fluid indicative of a physiological regulating secretion need. A chamber within the housing contains a plurality of physiologically active, autonomously functioning, live secretory cells for producing the physiological regulating secretion. A continually operating two pump apparatus moves tissue fluid into contact with the secretory cells for pick up of the physiological regulating secretion for subsequent physiologically-effective dispensing into the host, while avoiding immuno-rejection of the host body or of the host to the secretory cells.
    Type: Grant

The system includes a housing implantable within the host in fluidic communication with tissue fluid indicative of secretion need. A chamber within the housing contains a plurality of physiologically active, autonomously functioning, live secretory cells for producing the physiological secretion. A periodically operating pump apparatus moves tissue fluid into contact with the secretory cells for pick up of the regulating physiological secretion for subsequent physiologically-effective dispensing into the host while avoiding immunorejection of the host body or of the host to the secretory cells.
