  • Publication number: 20180280446
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cell therapy product which is intended for regenerating a sphincter muscle and which contains stem cells derived from amniotic fluid, and more particularly, to a cell therapy product which is intended for regenerating the sphincter vesicae and which contains stem cells derived from amniotic fluid. Also, the cell therapy product of the present invention can be provided in the form of a formulation for administration through injection, said formulation being injected into a hydrogel complex to thereby improve the effects thereof. The composition including stem cells derived from amniotic fluid according to the present invention enables stem cells to be differentiated into muscles in the body of individual suffering from urinary incontinence by directly injecting the composition into the individual, thus effectively controlling urinary incontinence by recovering muscle functions.

  • Patent number: 9846166
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a biosensor that uses a cell that expresses a chemosensory receptor that can detect sugar, and an Alzheimer's disease diagnostic apparatus comprising the same. The biosensor and the Alzheimer's disease diagnostic apparatus of the present invention can sensitively detect a particular sugar in a sample, more inexpensively and more quickly, by fixing a drosophila cell having an over-expressed target sensory receptor protein on the cell surface through genetic engineering, and can thereby be efficaciously used for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease.

  • Publication number: 20170114314
    Abstract: A skin expansion apparatus comprises a chamber accommodating a culture medium in which a skin piece is put, and at least two clamps to fix the skin piece. The clamps pull the skin piece in an outward direction to apply tensile force to the skin piece in a state in which the skin piece is put in the culture medium.

  • Publication number: 20140220684
    Abstract: The present invention provides a composition comprising oxygen-releasing microcapsules containing hydrogen peroxide for protection of cells at room temperature. The oxygen-releasing microcapsules containing hydrogen peroxide according to the present invention has an excellent effect of improving the viability of cells at room temperature and thus can be effectively used as a composition for protection of cells in manipulating, storing, or transporting cells at room temperature.
