Abstract: The present invention relates to metal-containing ribonucleotide polypeptides (RNP) and processes for their production, their use and medicaments containing ribonucleotide polypeptides or their molecular-biological equivalent structures and/or parts and/or derivatives.

Abstract: An apparatus for isolating cell material from a tissue system and/or a liquid includes (1) a vessel open at the top, into which the cell material to be isolated can be introduced in the tissue system and/or the liquid; and (2) a separating device having a stamp-shaped configuration and including a flat separating disk having a peripheral edge fitting with the inner walls of the vessel in a fluid-tight manner and presenting at least one passage opening which is covered by a filter membrane, and which device can be inserted from the top into the vessel. The isolating disk pressurises the cell material inclusive of the tissue system and/or the liquid and acts thereupon with shearing forces by rotation. The cells and/or cell systems pass through the pores of the filter membrane whereas the residual tissue material is retained.

Abstract: The invention relates to bioactive ribonucleo polypeptides (RNP) containing copper, zinc or calcium. These are non-mitogenic morphogens for blood vessels of a defined primary structure for intercellular communication with genetic information. Zn/Ca/Cu-RNP can enzymatically hydrolyse nucleinic acids in a regulated manner (regulated nuclease activity) and be modulated and regulated via Zn/Ca/Cu-metal ion contents as "molecular switches" in mutual bioactivity. The compounds selectively stimulate the directional growth of the morphogenesis of blood vessels in vivo and in vitro and lead to neovascularisation of tissues. The invention further relates to a method of producing and obtaining the RNP as well as its utilisation, and medicines.
