  • Patent number: 9901601
    Abstract: Provided are: a method for preparing a decellularized tissue product in which decellularized tissue can be filled with liquid while changes in the structure of support tissue constituting the decellularized tissue are inhibited; and a graft provided with a decellularized tissue product. The method for preparing a decellularized tissue product includes a reduced-pressure step for bringing an animal-derived decellularized tissue material and a liquid into contact under reduced-pressure conditions, and/or a pressurized step for bringing same into contact under pressurized conditions. The graft is provided with a decellularized tissue product prepared by the method of preparation.

  • Publication number: 20160051731
    Abstract: A hybrid gel comprising a particulate decellularized tissue (obtained by pulverizing animal-derived biological tissues that are decellularized (decellularized biological tissues)), fibrinogen and thrombin; a cell culture material comprising the hybrid gel; a method for preparing the hybrid gel; and a kit comprising a particulate decellularized tissue and a biological tissue adhesive are provided. The hybrid gel of the present invention exerts the effect to promote differentiation and gain of function of stem cells and the therapeutic effect to a variety of diseases.
