Definitions
- the present invention relates to generation and expansion of tissue-progenitor cells or mature tissue cells in vitro, and methods of repairing or regenerating tissue using the cells.
- Bone tissue repair accounts for approximately 500,000 surgical procedures per year in the United States alone (Geiger et al., 2003). Similarly, injuries and degenerative changes in the articular cartilage are, in essence, a significant cause of morbidity and diminished quality of life, with arthritis ranking second only to cardiovascular disease (Walker JM, 1998) where improvement of neovascularization is an important therapeutic option (Kawamoto A, et al., 2001). Osteogenesis, chondrogenesis, angiogenesis, and chronic wound healing are all natural repair mechanisms that occur in the human body. However, there are critical sizes of defects greater than which these tissues will not regenerate (e.g., after significant osteotomy because of bone cancer) .
- a commonly accepted hypothesis is that adult stem cells emerge during development and then are somehow "conserved” in the adult organism for tissue/organ maintenance and repair (Ratajczak et al., 2004; da Silva Meirelles et al., 2006) . If such conservation occurs at various stages of development, then the resulting stem cells should differ in degree of maturity and differentiation potential. Bone marrow is an important source of AMSCs, which are capable of differentiation into tissues such as bone, fat, cartilage and connective tissue that arise from mesenchymal origin during development .
- a first aspect of the present invention is directed to a method of generating and expanding more or less differentiated tissue-progenitor cells or mature tissue cells in culture, comprising culturing intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue in a cell differentiation medium whereby tissue-progenitor cells or mature tissue cells are generated from all cellular sources, such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and various progenitor cells, present in the intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue that are capable of differentiation, and expanded.
- MSCs mesenchymal stem cells
- the methods of the present invention may be used to generate and expand cells that can be used for the repair or regeneration of a variety of tissues, including bone, cartilage, heart, vasculature (e.g., smooth muscle) /endothelium, nerve tissue, pancreatic tissue, skin and adipose tissue.
- tissues including bone, cartilage, heart, vasculature (e.g., smooth muscle) /endothelium, nerve tissue, pancreatic tissue, skin and adipose tissue.
- a second aspect of the present invention is directed to a method of tissue repair or regeneration, comprising:
- a third aspect of the present invention is directed to a composition, comprising intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue and a cell differentiation medium, which upon culturing achieves generation and expansion of tissue-progenitor cells or mature tissue cells from mesenchymal stem cells and/or various progenitor cells present in the intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue.
- the present invention provides a much simplified and more efficient method of generating or differentiating and expanding progenitor cells of various tissues in vitro. More specifically, using intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue eliminates the need for costly and detailed physical and/or chemical pretreatment of the bone marrow or umbilical cord tissue in order to isolate or extract stem cells, such as MSCs, thus eliminating the need for reagents required for isolation of stem cells (thus reducing costs, and the time need to satisfy FDA requirements and regulations) and makes quality control (QC) easier because tissue-progenitor cells express better-defined markers as compared to undifferentiated AMSCs. The method also produces nearly homogeneous populations of expanded cells.
- stem cells such as MSCs
- the method saves production time and improves the yield and viability of the generated and expanded cell types by reducing cell injury and loss caused by isolation procedures and by allowing the differentiation process to occur in the native environment of the cell.

- DMEM/F12 medium or Neurobasal medium supplemented with B27 and/or N2 supplements may be used.
- the cell differentiation medium further comprises bone marrow plasma (autologous, allogeneic, or xenogenic) .
- the cell differentiation media that are used in accordance with the present invention may contain one or more additional components, if necessary.
- additional components can include a growth factor, a cytokine, a scaffold, an extracellular matrix protein (ECM) , demineralized bone matrix, horse or human serum, or antibiotics and antifungal agents, including penicillin G, streptomycin sulfate, amphotericin B, gentamycin and nystatin, which can be added to prevent microorganism contamination.
- ECM extracellular matrix protein

- the ECM is derived from human peripheral blood, bone marrow or umbilical cord blood.
- the scaffold is selected from synthetic polymers, biological polymers of a human origin, ceramics, gels, alginates, nanofibers, mineralized and demineralized bone matrix.
- scaffolds could be made of natural polymers, such as collagen (or demineralized bone matrix, which is mostly collagen I with attached growth factors), hyaluronic acid, fibrin, etc., or scaffolds could be synthetic polymers such as poly-L-lactide, polyglycolide, lactide-glycolide copolymer, caprolactone-lactide copolymer, poly-caprolactone.

Typically, cells are released from the surface to which they are adhered by treatment with a proteolytic enzyme, e.g. trypsin, or by treatment with EDTA. [0103] If cultured on a scaffold, the cells are typically harvested by washing with PBS and harvesting the combined scaffold and cells.
- a proteolytic enzyme e.g. trypsin
- a further advantage of the present invention is due to the differentiation process occurring in a natural environment.
- AMSCs are thought to come from non-hematopoietic tissue of the bone marrow, referred to as stromal cells.
- Hematopoietic cells adhere to stromal cells and receive regulatory signals for proliferation and differentiation through adhesion receptors.
- stromal cells release soluble factors that activate proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells (Yin and Li, 2006) . These interactions between stromal cells and hematopoietic cells are reciprocal.
- oncostatin M a factor produced by hematopoietic cells, induces proliferation of human AMSCs and regulates their differentiation (Song et al., 2005, Yanai and Obinata, 2001) .
- Stromal cells also maintain their own growth via autocrine mechanisms.
- multiple blood vessels penetrate through stromal niches and provide nourishment to hematopoietic and stromal cells.
- Commonly used isolation techniques destroy cooperation between various cells of the bone marrow and remove AMSCs from their normal environment.
- AMSCs derived from single cell suspensions had lower colony formation ability and inferior differentiation potential than AMSC aggregates with megakaryocytes (Miao et al., 2004).
- differentiation of unprocessed bone marrow occurs within so-called environmental niche, which enhances the differentiation process.
- An additional advantage of the present invention is that the method does not require the use of fetal calf serum.
- Multipotent MSCs have become important tools in regenerative and transplantation medicine. Rapidly increasing numbers of patients are receiving in vitro-expanded MSCs.
- culture conditions for expansion of MSCs typically include fetal calf serum (FSC) because human serum does not fully support growth of human MSCs in vitro.
- FSC fetal calf serum
- FCS fetal calf serum
- the method of differentiation of intact bone marrow or intact umbilical cord tissue could be performed in serum free medium as bone marrow itself is a source of growth factors and cytokines and could produce an effect similar to that of human plasma or autologous serum. Similar techniques could be used for obtaining progenitors of chondrocytes, endothelial cells, cells of various neural lineages, pancreatic ⁇ -cells, hepatocytes and skin cells and other progenitors committed to other phenotypes
- MSCs can differentiate into different cell types
- cells differentiated from MSCs can be used to treat many kinds of diseases and conditions.
- the differentiated cells may be genetically manipulated, e.g., transformed with exogenous nucleic acid, and thus provide gene therapy to the affected or diseased tissue.
- wound healing usually results in scarring, which is caused by the incomplete restoration of initial skin structure and the disruption of the normal alignment of collagen fibers.
- specific illnesses and diseases which can result in skin wounds and injuries, such as diabetes ulcers and other ulcerous wounds.
- the muscular cardiac tissue is made of cardiomyocytes . These specialized forms of muscle cells are not capable of regeneration following injury in the adult. Common injuries to the heart muscle occur in ischemic heart attacks during which blood flow to the heart is restricted and the cardiac muscle is damaged through hypoxia. Patients suffering from heart infarct require both the restoration of blood supply to the heart and the regeneration of the damaged heart muscle.
- the central nervous system composed of neurons and other neural cells, is generally incapable of regeneration in the adult.
- the peripheral nervous system is only capable of limited regeneration. Illnesses that commonly result in central nervous system damage are multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Incidents that commonly result in central nervous system damage are spinal cord damage and cerebral vascular accidents.
- Urinary incontinence can result from damage to the sphincters of the urethra.
- Various conditions can result in liver damage including viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, steatohepatitis and liver cancer.
- damage and degeneration of the pancreas can result in diabetes. Arthritis is a form of degradation and damage to the joints between bones.
- MSCs/progenitor cells can be employed in therapies to improve these conditions, whether the result of bone damage or disease, a disease or the natural imperfection of skin-healing, the inability of heart muscle tissue, nervous tissue, cartilage or joints, liver or urethral sphincters to regenerate, or from diabetes caused by the degeneration of the pancreas .
- tissue- progenitor cells and mature tissue cells generated and expanded in the methods described above are harvested and transplanted into a patient in need thereof typically by grafting or injecting them at the site of damage or disease.
- the tissue-progenitor cells or tissue cells may be autologous, allogeneic, or xenogenic.
- the bone progenitor cells are cultured on a scaffold (and directly transplanted into a patient without re-plating) , or if cultured on culture ware, may be seeded onto a scaffold after harvesting.
- the scaffold including the cells is then grafted into the bone defect and secured by known means.
- the scaffold serves as void filler and also provides support for in-growth of host's bone cells and blood vessels.
- the scaffold also provides mechanical (as carrier) and biological support for transplanted cells.
- neuronal progenitor cells or mature neurons generated and expanded by the methods of the invention may be used to repair or regenerate damaged or diseased nerve tissue.
- the harvested cells are suspended in basal medium and injected at the site of the disease or damage.

- MDBP were produced by culturing of unprocessed bone marrow with osteogenic differentiation medium containing either 10% FCS or no serum at all for 14 and 21 days. At the end of incubation MDBP cultures were washed, cells were detached from the dishes by trypsinization and counted in heamocytometer . In some cases cells were stained with a fluorescent dye Calcein-AM and cell number was determined according fluorescence intensity measured on a plate reader. Cell counts were normalized per volume of the bone marrow added to the culture. No significant differences between cultures with 10% serum and cultures without serum observed ( Figure 7) . [0158] Example 8

- Example 16 In vivo transplantation of human BM-derived BP in critical size femoral defect model in nude mice.
- BP were derived from intact human bone marrow according to Example 1 and put on a hydrogel-ceramic scaffold. The scaffolds with cells were transplanted into nude mice at the site of femoral bone defect at two doses: 100,000 cells per defect and 500,000 per defect. The defect size was 3 mm, which is considered a critical size defect as it does not heal by itself.
- Control groups of animals were transplanted a) with scaffold alone, b) with fresh BM-derived cell pellet mixed with the scaffold; c) with commercial undifferentiated MSCs derived from human BM through common method of adhesion selection, seeded on the scaffold.
- Figure 16 presents the results of X-ray evaluation ( Figure 16A) and of morphometric evaluation of histological sections ( Figure 16B) performed at the end of the study at 8 weeks after transplantation. According to X-ray tests partial or even full bone healing (one animal in animal group transplanted with 500,000 BP) was observed only in animals transplanted with BP derived from intact BM according to the described method. No bone healing was observed in animals transplanted with commercial MSCs or with fresh BM-derived pellet ( Figure 16A) .
