Department of Plastic Surgery, Lusiada University of Santos, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Article Synopsis
- The study explores an experimental method to isolate and analyze mesenchymal stem cells from rabbit fat obtained through lipectomy, suggesting fat as a viable source for tissue repair.
- After surgically removing and processing fat from New Zealand rabbits, the researchers cultured the obtained cells, leading to successful growth and high viability rates.
- Results indicated that stem cell extraction using lipectomy is effective, yielding significant quantities of viable stem cells for potential bioengineering applications.
