The emerging field of regenerative medicine will require a reliable source of stem cells in
addition to biomaterial scaffolds and cytokine growth factors. Adipose tissue represents an …

White adipose tissue (WAT) is perhaps the most plastic organ in the body, capable of
regeneration following surgical removal and massive expansion or contraction in response …

Adipose tissue represents an abundant and accessible source of multipotent adult stem
cells and is used by many investigators for tissue engineering applications; however, not all …

Liposuction aspirates (primarily saline solution, blood, and adipose tissue fragments)
separate into fatty and fluid portions. Cells isolated from the fatty portion are termed …

As the promise of stem cell-based therapies begins to be realised, and efforts to bring
advances to the clinic mount, the source of these cells is increasingly important. The …

In this study, we aimed at generating osteogenic and vasculogenic constructs starting from
the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of human adipose tissue as a single cell source. SVF …

Experimental studies have shown that cardiac transfer of unfractionated or partially purified
bone marrow cells, as well as stem cells and progenitor cells derived from the bone marrow …

BACKGROUND: Adipose tissue consists of mature adipocytes and a mononuclear cell
fraction termed adipose tissue-derived cells (ADCs). Within these heterogeneous ADCs …

Importance of the field: Several lines of evidence suggest that VEGF is a key regulator of the
paracrine effects of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), but the mechanism of action remains …
