Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Adipose tissue engineering has been hampered by the inability to culture mature adipocytes. Adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) culture opens the way for the preparation of human 3-D hypodermis in large quantities. These models play a role in obesity-related active molecules and slimming agent screening. Moreover, they contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning obesity. MATERIALS...
