  • Publication number: 20230365923
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides solid collagen constructs and tissue compositions, wherein a polymerizable collagen solution or suspension is extruded in the presence or absence of cells to formed an aligned architecture comprising solid collagen constructs such as those made with fibrillar collagen. Methods of using and of manufacturing solid collagen constructs and tissue compositions, where the component collagen is solid fibrillar collagen and cells are preferentially aligned, are also provided.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20220110980
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for repairing and reconstructing a damaged or non-functional muscle, in particular to a method and a tool kit using in vitro primed motor endplate-expressing muscle progenitor cells (MPCs) to promote innervation of the damaged or non-functional muscle using an agent without any genetic manipulation. This method is particularly useful for repairing or reconstructing damaged or non-functional head and neck muscles, and urinary detrusor bladder muscle.
