Mesothelial Stem Cells and Stromal Vascular Fraction: Use in Functional Disorders, Wound Healing, Fat Transfer, and Other Conditions

Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am. 2018 Nov;26(4):487-501. doi: 10.1016/j.fsc.2018.06.009. Epub 2018 Aug 16.

Abstract

Autologous human fat-derived mesenchymal stem cells are present in stromal vascular fraction. Stromal vascular fraction can be easily and safely extracted from lipoaspirate. The regenerative, antiinflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of stromal vascular fraction are being documented in ongoing therapeutic response studies.

Keywords: Adipose-derived stem cells; Cellular therapy; Nitric oxide; Stromal vascular fraction.
