Current practice of autologous fat transfer for soft tissue augmentation is limited by poor long-
term graft retention. Adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) contain several types of …

Background: Fat grafting is a promising technique for soft-tissue augmentation, although
graft retention is highly unpredictable and factors that affect graft survival have not been well …

Background Autologous fat grafting is increasingly used in reconstructive surgery. However,
resorption rates ranging from 25% to 80% have been reported. Therefore, methods to …

Background: Recent research indicates that the adipose tissue of nonvascularized grafts is
completely remodeled within 3 months, although origins of next-generation cells are …

Methods We isolated and cultured ASCs from transgenic mice that express both luciferase
and green fluorescent protein and injected the cells into the inguinal fat pads of wild-type …

Background: Fat graft volume retention remains highly unpredictable, but addition of
adipose-derived stromal cells to fat grafts has been shown to improve retention. The present …

With adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) at the forefront of research and potential clinical
applications, it is important that clinicians be able to distinguish them from the fat grafting …

Background Autologous fat transplantation is frequently used for a variety of cosmetic
treatments and difficult reconstructive indications such as involutional disorders, hemifacial …

Background: The efficacy of autologous fat transplantation is reduced by fat absorption and
fibrosis due to fat necrosis. Enhanced transplant neovascularization early after …

Adipose tissue and adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ASCs) obtained from liposuction
were shown to have potential for regenerative therapeutic use. However, clinical outcomes …
