IPC: A61L27/38
Filed: 2006-03-22
Abstract: The current invention concerns improving cell proliferative potential and prolonging the expected lifespan of differentiated, as well as non-differentiated cells. This is achieved through the generation of activated cells which in turn stimulate the growth of cells displaying non-dividing/senescent cell phenotypes. Activated cells are induced using cells or derivatives of the F7 cell line, and may be intra- and/or inter-species cell hybrids generated by cell-cell fusion or can be achieved using conditioned media from F7 cell culturing. Resulting activated cells have superior proliferation potential compared to the non-activated parental cell types and can be characterised by chromosomal heteroploidy/aneuploidy . The improved growth properties of the activated cells generated can be utilized directly in facilitating the clinical and medical treatment of diseases in humans and other mammals and for the repair of damaged tissues/organs, or can be utilized indirectly to provide media and/or factors with unique growth promoting and/or sustaining properties. Generation of hybrid or activated cells in accordance with the present invention provide an alternative to conventional embryonic and adult stem cells, and circumvent the need for the specialised and costly cell culture techniques required in current stem cell applications.

Abstract: Devices and methods useful for non-invasively indicating the position or setting of a mechanical device, such as a sensor or control in an implanted medical device, are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, a valve housing adapted to receive fluid flow therethrough is provided. The flow of fluid through the valve housing can be controlled, for example, by a valve assembly that has a plurality of predetermined pressure settings. A radio frequency tag can be disposed in the valve assembly, and the masking element and the radio frequency tag can be configured to move relative to one another. The relative positions of the masking element and the radio frequency tag can alter the response of the radio frequency tag to a wireless signal (which can be emitted from an external reading device, for example) and thereby indicate the pressure setting of the valve assembly. For example, in some embodiments, the masking element can selectively cover at least part of the radio frequency tag according to the pressure setting of the valve assembly, which can change a characteristic of the radio frequency tag's response to the wireless signal.

Abstract: A system and method for deploying balloon-expandable (i.e., plastically-e xpandable) prosthetic heart valves (20) so that they assumed their desired o perational shape. The system includes a balloon (40) that accommodates non-u niform expansion resistance in the heart valve to expanded to its desired tu bular or other shape. The heart valve may have substantially more structural elements adjacent one end, typically the inflow end (22), and the balloon i s tapered so as to expand the inflow end before the outflow so that the valv e ends up in a tubular shape. Alternatively, a stepped balloon with a larger diameter proximal section adjacent the inflow end of the valve may be used. A method includes applying a non-linear expansion forced to the interior of a plastically- expandable prosthetic heart valve to overcome areas of great er resistance to expansion and result in uniform expansion.
