Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells: A Novel Therapy in Orthopedics
Abstract:Background: Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into a variety of cell types. They have the ability to release bioactive molecules, making them attractive tools in cell-based therapies. Adipose tissue is an ideal source of autologous mesenchymal stem cells for its abundance and easy access. Mesenchymal stem cells are routinely obtained enzymatically from lipoaspirate as stromal vascular fraction.Objectives: The aim of this review is to investigate the advantages of adipose derived stem cells in orthopedic… Show more
