The present invention regards a biological material comprising: a) a liquid carrier comprising a viscous solution containing at least one natural and/or semisynthetic polysaccharide, and having a Dynamic viscosity measured at 20° C. and at shear rate of D=350 s−1, comprised between 100 and 250 c Poise and/or a Kinematic viscosity comprised between 99 and 248 cSt (measured at the same conditions); b) a culture of mesenchymal stem cells, and/or c) a platelet-rich hemo-derivative. This type of material in form of viscous liquid is particularly suitable for the therapy of osteoarthrosis, ligament damage, in particular tendon and cartilage damage) and may be administered intra-articularly, intradermally or directly applied in situ without altering the properties of the mesenchymal stem cells and/or platelets contained therein.
A therapeutic method for the treatment of at least one member selected from the group consisting of osteoarthrosis, cartilagineous defects, bone defects, damaged tendon, damaged ligament, joint disorders, skin lesion and skin ulcers comprising injecting into a subject in need thereof a biological material comprising:
A therapeutic method for the treatment of osteoarthrosis, cartilage damage, tendon damage, ligament damage, or joint disorders which comprises injecting into a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a biological material comprising:
