US Patent:

8375851, Feb 19, 2013

Filed:

Nov 10, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/616113

Inventors:

Stephanie Bryant - Boulder CO, US
Garret Nicodemus - Broomfield CO, US
Idalis Villanueva - Bethesda MD, US
Dana S. Hauschulz - Boulder CO, US
Dragan Mejic - Brighton CO, US

Assignee:

The Regents of University of Colorado - Denver CO

International Classification:

B30B 1/14

US Classification:

100281, 100282

Abstract:

The present invention provides an apparatus for loading soft materials and methods for using the same. In some embodiments, the apparatus is a gearless mechanical loading apparatus which converts a rotational movement of one end of a first element into an arc of a circle movement of the other end of the first element; and converts the arc of a circle movement of the other end of the first element into a precision two-dimensional lateral movement of a second element.

International Classification:

A61F 2/02
C12N 11/04
A61F 2/00
A61K 35/12
B32B 3/26

US Classification:

424426, 435182, 424 937, 4283122, 623 2372

Abstract:

Substrates coated with films of a ceramic material such as aluminum oxides and titanium oxides are biocompatible, and can be used in a variety of applications in which they are implanted in a living body. The substrate is preferably a porous polymer, and may be biodegradable. An important application for the ceramic-coated substrates is as a tissue engineering scaffold for forming artificial tissue.

International Classification:

A61K 9/14
A61K 47/48
A61P 19/04

US Classification:

424486, 424 7817, 424484

Abstract:

The present invention provides cell-laden and/or extracellular matrix material laden hydrogels for use in tissue engineering and methods for producing such hydrogels. In some particular embodiments, hydrogels comprise chondrocytes, which are typically encapsulated within the hydrogels. In many instances, such hydrogels are subjected to dynamic loading prior to being administered to a subject to treat a clinical condition that is helped by tissue engineering, including, but not limited to, cosmetic surgery such as craniofacial reconstruction surgery, and cartilage regeneration.

Robert McLeod - Boulder CO, US

International Classification:

A61L 27/52
A61L 27/48
A61L 27/58
A61K 38/48

Abstract:

The present invention relates to the unexpected discovery of 3D printed biomimetics of growth plate cartilage and methods using the same for the treatment of growth plate defects. In certain embodiments, the methods prevent the growth of bony bars at the site of growth plate injury, thereby preventing growth arrest and/or deformity.
