Stem Cell Related Patent Number US6200606
| Title: | Isolation of precursor cells from hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic tissues and their use in vivo bone and cartilage regeneration | | Inventors: | Peterson, Dale R.; Carmel, IN, USA
Nousek-Goebl, Nancy; Fishers, IN, USA | | Summary: | This invention describes the isolation of cartilage or bone precursor cells from hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells and their use in bone and cartilage regeneration procedures. The precursor cells are used for in vivo bone or cartilage repair by transplanting the cells, with or without a carrier material and without the need for in vitro culturing of the cells, to sites in the body requiring bone or cartilage repair. | | Abstract: | The present invention relates to the isolation of cartilage or bone precursor cells from hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells and their use in bone and cartilage regeneration procedures.
