An implant for repair of a cartilaginous defect in a subject includes a collagen matrix charged with synovial cells. A method preparing an implant for repair of a cartilaginous defect in a subject includes obtaining a fluid containing synovial cells and charging the synovial cells to the matrix. A device for preparing a cell-charged implant includes a first chamber and a second chamber, the first and second chambers being separated by a membrane and a perforated filter. The membrane is adapted to collect cells from a cell-containing fluid introduced into the first chamber and the perforated filter is adapted to permit passage or diffusion of the fluid through the second chamber. A method for preparing a cell-charged implant utilizes the device.

A method of improving renal function in a mammal suffering from, or at risk of developing, at least partial renal failure or renal dysfunction, includes administering to renal tissue of the mammal, a combination comprising a non-viral vector comprising a non-viral particulate carrier which carries a therapeutically effective amount of genetic material capable of expressing a renal function-enhancing Osteogenic Protein-1/Bone Morphogenic Protein-7 (OP-1/BMP-7) polypeptide in the renal tissue.

Abrégé

A method of repairing a meniscal tear of a subject includes providing a sheet of collagen membrane material having on one side thereof a smooth barrier face which inhibits cell adhesion thereon and inhibits passage of cells therethrough. The sheet has a fibrous face opposite the smooth barrier face, the fibrous face allowing cell growth thereon. The collagen is predominantly collagen I. The sheet of collagen membrane material is fixed over a meniscal tear so that the fibrous face is oriented toward the meniscal tear.
