Abstract: The invention is directed to methods of modulating ischemic injury in tissues and organs, including donor tissue and organs and intact tissue and organs. The invention is further directed to methods of increasing time to ischemic injury in such tissues and organs. The invention is further directed to storing and preserving donor tissues and organs. Such methods utilize compositions comprising Amnion-derived Cellular Cytokine Solution (herein referred to as ACCS). The ACCS compositions may be formulated for sustained-release, targeted-release, timed-release, extended-release, etc. and may be used alone or in combination with various suitable active agents.

Abstract: The invention is directed to methods for the treatment of diseases and conditions caused by increased vascular permeability. The invention is also directed to methods for returning vascular permeability that is a symptom of a disease or condition to a homeostatic state. Specifically, the invention is directed to methods for the treatment of diseases and conditions caused by increased vascular permeability or returning vascular permeability that is a symptom of a disease or condition to a homeostatic state by administering to a subject suffering from such diseases and conditions and symptoms novel cellular factor-containing solution compositions (referred to herein as “CFS” compositions), including novel sustained-release cellular factor-containing solution compositions (referred to herein as “SR-CFS” compositions).

Abstract: The invention is directed to methods for reducing the number of apoptotic cell deaths in a population of cells undergoing excessive cellular apoptosis. The invention is also directed to methods for preventing apoptotic cell death in a population of cells at risk for developing excessive cellular apoptosis. In particular, the invention is directed to methods for reducing or preventing excessive cellular apoptosis comprising exposing cells exhibiting or at risk for developing excessive cellular apoptosis to a cellular factor-containing composition called Amnion-derived Cellular Cytokine Solution (referred to herein as ACCS), which is obtained from the culturing of Amnion-derived Multipotent Progenitor (AMP) cells, or AMP cells.

Abstract: The invention is directed to novel methods for modulating inflammatory and/or immune responses. Such methods utilize compositions comprising extraembryonic cells (herein referred to as EE cells) including but not limited to extraembryonic HLA-G positive cells (herein referred to as EHP cells) and amnion-derived multipotent progenitor cells (herein referred to as AMP cells); compositions comprising expanded EE cell populations, and/or cell lysates and/or conditioned media derived therefrom, alone or in combination with each other and/or in combination with various extracellular matrices and/or devices and/or other suitable active agents.
