Abstract
Abstract Methods for treating damaged corneal, uterine or cartilage tissue comprising applying a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising: (a) a sterile extracellular connective tissue matrix composition comprising collagens, proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins wherein said collagens, said proteoglycans, said glycosamino glycans, and said glycoproteins have each been extracted from an extracellular connective tissue matrix and are in their native structural form and (b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
