Article Abstract

Cellulosic scaffolds filled with oil were designed to replicate animal adipose tissues. Many plants are structured as polysaccharide-based cellular solids. They maintain their integrity after drying, can serve as a scaffold for incorporating fat, and do not lose integrity upon heating, thus resembling native adipose tissue. Carrots, broccoli, and asparagus were freeze-dried and subsequently filled with peanut oil, its glycerolysis product (GP), and the oleogel of this GP. Oleogel-filled scaffolds displayed high oil binding capacity (≥95%), and an oil loss resembling that of adipose tissue. In addition, the texture of oleogel-filled asparagus and broccoli tissue closely resembled that of beef and pork adipose tissues, respectively. Plant scaffolds closely emulated the temperature-dependent rheological behavior of adipose tissue. These new materials could significantly improve the quality of plant-based meat analogues, such as burgers and sausages, by preventing the thermal softening of the material upon cooking and excessive oil loss.

Introduction: Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is a significant driver for metabolic disease risk. Low dose computed tomography (LDCT) imaging obtained for other clinical indications is useful for the opportunistic screening of osteoporosis and demonstrates additional potential for the screening of metabolic risk through the measurement of visceral adipose tissue. In this study, we explored LDCT-derived VAT and calculated VAT thresholds indicative of elevated metabolic risk in a population cohort of Chinese men and women.

Background: Several studies have suggested that adult human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) may be a potential alternative source to mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapies. This study aims to characterize HDFa, adipose-derived stem cells (ADMSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to investigate their proliferation, differentiation potential, mitochondrial respiration, and metabolomic profile. We identified molecules and characteristics that would differentiate MSCs from different sources or confirm their uniformity.

Limited vascularization and ischemia are major contributors to the chronicity of wounds, such as ulcers and traumatic injuries, which impose significant medical, social, and economic burdens. These challenges are particularly pronounced in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), a disabling condition associated with vascular dysfunction, infections, and impaired peripheral circulation, complicating the treatment of pressure injuries (PIs) and the success of reconstructive procedures like grafts and flaps. Regenerative medicine aims to address these issues by identifying effective cellular therapies to restore vascular beds.

Objective: Adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) are promising cell sources for damaged tissue regeneration. The efficacy of therapeutic angiogenesis with ADRC implantation in patients with critical limb ischemia has been demonstrated in clinical studies. There are several possible mechanisms in this process such as cytokines and microRNA.
