The subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) is the largest and best storage site for excess lipids.
However, it has a limited ability to expand by recruiting and/or differentiating available …

Intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is a distinct adipose depot described in early reports as
a 'fatty replacement'or 'muscle fat infiltration'that was linked to ageing and neuromuscular …

Adipose tissue as a stem cell source is ubiquitously available and has several advantages
compared to other sources. It is easily accessible in large quantities with minimal invasive …

Tissue growth and function depend on vascularization, and vascular insufficiency or excess
exacerbates many human diseases. Identification of the biological processes involved in …

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 …

Stem cells ensure tissue regeneration, while overgrowth of adipogenic cells may
compromise organ recovery and impair function. In myopathies and muscle atrophy …

We previously demonstrated that human pericytes, which encircle capillaries and
microvessels, give rise in culture to genuine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This raised …

The in vivo progenitor of culture‐expanded mesenchymal‐like adipose‐derived stem cells
(ADSC) remains elusive, owing in part to the complex organization of stromal cells …

In many adult tissues, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are closely associated with
perivascular niches and coexpress many markers in common with pericytes. The ability of …

Recent development in stem cell isolation methods and expansion under laboratory
conditions create an opportunity to use those aforementioned cells in tissue engineering …
