Abstract: A method for growing adult cells includes harvesting a tissue sample from a subject and breaking the tissue sample into fragments. The fragments are placed into a culture vessel, and at least some of the fragments are induced to adhere to the culture vessel. The fragments are supplied with nutrients so that adult cells contained therein divide and grow.

Abstract: A method for treating a mammal having damaged articular cartilage tissue includes harvesting a tissue sample from the mammal, growing articular cartilage cells from the tissue sample, and transplanting the articular cartilage cells into the damaged tissue. Growing the articular cartilage cells from the tissue sample can be accomplished by breaking the tissue sample into fragments, placing the fragments into a culture vessel, inducing at least some of the fragments to adhere to the culture vessel, and supplying the fragments with nutrients so that articular cartilage cells contained therein divide and grow.

Abstract: A method for treating a mammal having damaged pancreatic tissue includes harvesting a tissue sample from the mammal, growing pancreatic cells from the tissue sample, and transplanting the pancreatic cells into the damaged tissue. Growing the pancreatic cells from the tissue sample can be accomplished by breaking the tissue sample into fragments, placing the fragments into a culture vessel, inducing at least some of the fragments to adhere to the culture vessel, and supplying the fragments with nutrients so that pancreatic cells contained therein divide and grow.

Abstract: A method for treating a mammal having damaged myocardium tissue includes harvesting a tissue sample from the mammal, growing myocardium cells from the tissue sample, and transplanting the myocardium cells into the damaged tissue. Growing the myocardium cells from the tissue sample can be accomplished by breaking the tissue sample into fragments, placing the fragments into a culture vessel, inducing at least some of the fragments to adhere to the culture vessel, and supplying the fragments with nutrients so that myocardium cells contained therein divide and grow.

Abstract: A DVD case interior panel insert printable sheet suitable for use in the production of a DVD insert is provided. The printable sheet has a peripheral edge with a length of 14 inches, and a defined pattern of reduced strength inside the peripheral edge. The defined pattern and peripheral edge collectively establish three contiguous rectangular patterns each having a width of 4.66 inches to define three DVD case interior panel insert leafs suitable for fitting against a panel inner surface of an industry standard DVD case. Preferably, the DVD case interior panel insert printable sheet is United States standard Legal Size paper. Methods of making the DVD case interior panel insert and inserting the same inside a DVD case are also provided.

Abstract: A case insert printable sheet suitable for use in the production of a DVD insert is provided. The sheet has a peripheral edge and a defined pattern of reduced strength spaced inside the peripheral edge. The defined pattern has rectangular dimensions of about 7.25 inches by about 10.6875 inches to define an insert portion suitable for fitting an industry standard DVD case. The defined pattern is spaced apart from the peripheral edge to establish a margin portion between the defined pattern and the peripheral edge. The margin portion surrounds the insert portion and spaces the insert portion apart from the peripheral edge by a minimum distance of at least 0.5 inches. Preferably, the case insert printable sheet is United States standard legal size paper. A method for making the DVD insert is also provided.
