Patents by Inventor Yu Moriguchi

Yu Moriguchi has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11903843
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes an intervertebral disk replacement system. The system can include a tissue-engineered intervertebral disc that is combined with a bioresorbable stabilization system for structural guidance. The system can prevent or reduce intervertebral disk implant displacement and can increase the stiffness when compared to the implantation of the intervertebral disk implant without the stabilization system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2022
    Date of Patent: February 20, 2024
    Assignee: CORNELL UNIVERSITY

  • Publication number: 20200121463
    Abstract: An improved method of treating an osteochondral defect is provided, which is a composite tissue for treating or preventing a disease, disorder, or condition associated with an osteochondral defect, comprising a three-dimensional synthetic tissue and an artificial bone, wherein the three-dimensional synthetic tissue is substantially made of a cell and an extracellular matrix derived from the cell, the extracellular matrix contains fibronectin, collagen I, collagen III, and vitronectin, and the extracellular matrix is diffusedly distributed in the tissue.

  • Publication number: 20150367034
    Abstract: Provided are an improved three-dimensional synthetic tissue, a composite tissue thereof, and a production method of the same. The present invention provides: an implantable synthetic tissue substantially made of a mesenchymal stem cell induced from a pluripotent stem cell or an equivalent cell thereof, and an extracellular matrix derived from the cell; a composite tissue for treating or preventing a disease, disorder, or condition associated with an osteochondral defect, comprising a synthetic tissue and an artificial bone, wherein the artificial bone is smaller in size than a depth of a defect of a bone section in the osteochondral defect; and a production method of the same.
