In regenerative medicine, adult stem cells are the most promising cell types for cell-based
therapies. As a new source for multipotent stem cells, human adipose tissue has been …

Tumors are composed of different types of cancer cells that contribute to tumor
heterogeneity. Among these populations of cells, cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an …

Adipocytes account for the largest proportion among the cells that comprise breast tissue;
therefore, they are considered to be a critical cell type in the tumor microenvironment of …

Subcutaneous fat has emerged as an alternative tissue source for stromal/stem cells in
regenerative medicine. Over the past decade, international research efforts have …

Biomaterials in regenerative medicine are designed to mimic and modulate tissue
environments to promote repair. Biologic scaffolds (derived from decellularized tissue …

Mesenchymal stem or stromal cells (MSCs) have many potential therapeutic applications
including therapies for cancers and tissue damages caused by cancers or radical cancer …

Background Fat grafting is used to restore breast defects after surgical resection of breast
tumors. Supplementing fat grafts with adipose tissue-derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) is …

Among the many different cell types surrounding breast cancer cells, the most abundant are
those that compose mammary adipose tissue, mainly mature adipocytes and progenitors …

Adipose tissue is a reservoir of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (Adipose-derived Mesenchymal
Stem Cells, ASCs), endowed with regenerative properties. Fat graft was proposed for breast …

Cancer treatment generally relies on tumor ablative techniques that can lead to major
functional or disfiguring defects. These post-therapy impairments require the development of …
