Vascularization of bioengineered bone tissue constructs remains a challenging problem of regenerative medicine. Spheroids generated in 3D culture of adipose-derived stromal cells supplemented with inducing factors demonstrate stable characteristics and express of mesenchymal, endothelial, and osteoblasts markers, and represent a prototype of vascularized microtissue. Adipose-derived stromal cells spheroids induced to both angio- and osteogenic differentiation can be used in development of new innovative technologies for in vitro fabrication of vascularized bioequivalents for repair of large bone defects.

Background: Superficial autologous fat grafting is widely used for facial rejuvenation and regenerative treatments, yet its retention rate remains unpredictable. Enhancing the concentration of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) has been shown to improve graft retention. Mechanical fat processing techniques can reduce fat granules size for superficial injection as well as elevate the concentration of ASCs.

Background: The long-term effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) to restore radiation-induced salivary gland hypofunction in previous head and neck cancer patients have not been validated in larger settings.
Methods: The study was the 12-months follow-up of a randomised trial, including patients with hyposalivation. Patients were randomised to receive allogeneic ASCs or placebo in the submandibular glands.

Canine oral melanoma (COM) is a promising target for immunomodulatory therapies aimed at enhancing the immune system's antitumor response. Given that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) possess immunomodulatory properties through cytokine release, we hypothesized that co-culturing Ad-MSCs and canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) could stimulate interleukin (IL) production against melanoma cell lines (MCCLs) and help identify therapeutic targets. This study evaluated IL-2, IL-8, and IL-12 expressions in co-culture with MCCL, Ad-MSCs, and PBMCs and assessed the relationship between gene expression, cell viability, and migration.

Adipocytes represent a significant proportion of breast tissue, comprising between 3.7 and 37% of stromal tissue. They play a pivotal role in metabolic regulation, energy supply, metabolic regulation, support effects, and cytokine release within the breast.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head can lead to end-stage osteoarthritis when left untreated. The incidence has been on the rise since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Core decompression of the femoral head is usually the first line of surgical treatment when conservative options fail.
