Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cell-free, multi-layered medical device having bespoke, multifunctional bioactivity for the purpose of regeneration of skeletal tissues. The medical device may actively promote homing of stem cells into the medical device and promote their differentiation into the required cell type and promote de-novo tissue formation. The invention includes methods of making the medical device, uses of the medical device in promoting regeneration of the articular cartilage of a joint surface and in promoting healing and regeneration of skeletal tissues, for example, meniscal cartilage, tendon and ligament tissues and also healing of bone tissue indications such as fractures.

Claim (Index 22):
A method of promoting mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into an appropriate cell-type for tissue regeneration and/or promoting appropriate extracellular matrix formation, the method comprising implanting the device according to any one of  claims 1  to  17  into an area of a joint or other area to be treated.
