The authors have carried out an experimental study for the purpose of determining a possibility of differentiating stem cells that are isolated from the adipose tissue according to the adipogenic orientation. The results of the research were indicative of the fact that the cells isolated from the adipose tissue are of specific differentiation, namely, an osteogenic, chondrogenic and, above all, adipogenic orientation that is an evidence of the multipotency of the stem mesenchymal cells of the adipose tissue. The adipose tissue is an alternative source to the bone marrow of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells that can be used as a protection of transplanted autologous adipose tissue from resorption by lipofilling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
