  • Functional recovery of human lungs for transplantation
    Patent number: 9888680
    Abstract: The vasculature of a donor lung is perfused with a lung preserving fluid to preserve its structure. At the same time, a decellularization fluid is perfused through the airways, which strips away donor cells. The decellularized region is then seeded with pulmonary cells of the transplant recipient, which regenerate the lung. The pulmonary cells may be derived from stem cells, and the decellularization can be targeted to reduce the quantity of cells required.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 4, 2014
    Date of Patent: February 13, 2018
    Assignee: The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York
    Inventors: Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic, Joshua Sonett, John O'Neill, Matthew Bacchetta, Donald O. Freytes, Gopal Singh, Scott A. Kanner
