Abstract: Provided herein are populations of placental-derived natural killer cells comprising a cleavage resistant CD16. Also provided are methods of treating diseases, disorders or conditions in a human subject comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a population of placental-derived natural killer cells comprising a cleavage resistant CD16 to the subject so as thereby to provide an effective treatment of the to the subject. The cells, such as CYNK cells, can be placental CD34+ cell-derived natural killer (NK) cells. The diseases, disorders or conditions include cancers such as multiple myeloma and lymphoma. The present invention also provides compositions comprising populations of placental-derived natural killer cells comprising a cleavage resistant CD16 for the treatment of a subject and methods of their use.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treatment of individuals having an immune-related disease, disorder or condition, for example, inflammatory bowel disease, graft-versus-host disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, lupus erythematosus, diabetes, mycosis fungoides (Alibert-Bazin syndrome), or scleroderma using placental stem cells or umbilical cord stem cells.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating cancer in a human subject comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of human placental-derived natural killer cells comprising a CD38 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) to the subject so as thereby to provide an effective treatment of the cancer in the subject. The cells, such as CYNK cells, can be placental CD34+ cell-derived natural killer (NK) cells. The cancers to be treated include multiple myeloma and lymphoma. The present invention also provides compositions comprising human placental-derived natural killer cells comprising a CD38 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) or the treatment of multiple myeloma and lymphoma and methods of their use.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of using adherent placental stem cells and placental stem cell populations, and methods of culturing, proliferating and expanding the same. Also provided herein are methods of differentiating the placental stem cells. Further provided herein are methods of using the placental stem cells to formulate implantable or injectable compositions suitable for administration to a subject. Still further provided herein are provides methods for treating bone defects with stem cells and compositions comprising stem cells.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions comprising human placental telopeptide collagen, methods of preparing the compositions, methods of their use and kits comprising the compositions. The compositions, kits and methods are useful, for example, for augmenting or replacing tissue of a mammal.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved compositions and methods for the collection of stem cells from an organ, e.g., placenta. The invention provides a stem cell collection composition comprising an apoptosis inhibitor and, optionally, an enzyme such as a protease or mucolytic enzyme, vasodilator, necrosis inhibitor, oxygen-carrying perfluorocarbon, or an organ preserving compound. The invention provides methods of using the stem cell collection composition to collect stem cells and to preserve populations of stem cells.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for the production of hepatocytes from placenta stem cells. Further provided herein is the use of such hepatocytes in the treatment of, and intervention in, for example, trauma, inflammation, and degenerative disorders of the liver. Also provided herein are compositions and methods relating to combinations of nanofibrous scaffolds and adherent placental stem cells and methods of using the same in cartilage repair. Finally, provided herein are compositions and methods relating to nonadherent, CD34+CD45? stem cells from placenta.
