… During the repairing process, adipocytes, known to be very sensitive to hypoxia, are likely
to die within 24 h if the oxygen pressure is lower than its threshold. ASCs, however, are …

CD34 is frequently used as a marker of adipose-derived stem/stromal/progenitor cells (ASCs).
However, CD34 expression in human ASCs (hASCs) decreases over time in culture, and …

… Severe ischemia (such as pO 2 <15 mm Hg) induces adipocyte death within 24 h. If the …
for up to 72 h, even under severe conditions. During the critical first 72 h, ASCs are activated by …

Background: Clinical outcomes following fat grafting are variable and technique dependent,
and it is unknown how the graft is revascularized. The authors recently observed that living …

BACKGROUND Lipoinjection is a promising treatment, but its efficacy in recontouring facial
lipoatrophy remains to be established. OBJECTIVE The objective was to evaluate the …

… 2 B, TRAIL expression appeared on both CD4 + and CD8 + PBT cells at 2 h after stimulation,
and reached a peak at 6 h. Similar levels of surface TRAIL expression were retained on …

Background: Fat grafting is promising, but clinical outcomes are not always predictable. The
mechanisms of tissue revascularization/regeneration, and tissue necrosis and subsequent …

Breast enhancement with artificial implants is one of the most frequently performed cosmetic
surgeries but is associated with various complications, such as capsular contracture, that …

Background: Adipose tissue is an easily accessible tissue for use as a soft-tissue filler and
source of adult multipotent cells, called adipose-derived stem/stromal/progenitor cells. …

Background: Following various types of plastic surgery, such as adipose grafting and flap
elevation, adipose tissue undergoes ischemia, leading to hypoxia and nutrient depletion. …
