adipose-derived stem cells

Adipose-derived stem cells are special cells found in fat tissue that have the ability to develop into various types of cells, such as muscle, bone, or cartilage. They are considered versatile because they can be isolated from fat removed during procedures like liposuction. These cells are valuable in regenerative medicine because they can help repair damaged tissues, promote healing, and potentially treat conditions like arthritis or wounds. Their abundance and ease of collection make them a promising resource for developing new therapies, with ongoing research exploring their full potential.
