In mammals, the two main types of adipose tissues, white and brown adipose tissues, exert
different physiological functions. White adipose tissue (WAT) is for storing energy, while …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent non-haematopoietic progenitor cells that
are being explored as a promising new treatment for tissue regeneration. Although their …

Background: The regenerative property of fat grafting has been described. However, it is not
clear whether the clinical results are attributable to the stem cells or are linked to other …

Objective: The hepatic integration of human adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells
(hAT-MSCs) in vivo with or without prior differentiation to hepatocyte-like cells in vitro was …

Therapeutic strategies for the fatal neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
(ALS) have not yet provided satisfactory results. Interest in stem cells for the treatment of …

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by
progressive degeneration of motoneurons. To date, there is no effective treatment available …

Purpose Recent findings indicate that the beneficial effects of adipose stem cells (ASCs),
reported in several neurodegenerative experimental models, could be due to their paracrine …

Bone marrow and adipose tissue have provided two suitable sources of mesenchymal stem
cells. Although previous studies have confirmed close similarities between bone marrow …

Stem cell therapy represents a promising approach in the treatment of several
neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The beneficial …

The adipose tissue was considered a reserve of energy until the'80s, when it was found that
this tissue was involved in the metabolism of sex steroids such as estrogens. From then on …
