REVIEW
Stromal vascular fraction: A regenerative reality? Part 1: Current concepts and review of the literature.
Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) is a heterogeneous collection of cells contained within adipose tissue that is traditionally isolated using enzymes such as collagenase. With the removal of adipose cells, connective tissue and blood from lipoaspirate, comes the SVF, a mix including mesenchymal stem cells, endothelial precursor cells, T regulatory cells, macrophages, smooth muscle cells, pericytes and preadipocytes. In part 1 of our 2-part series, we review the literature with regards to the intensifying interest that has shifted toward this mixture of cells, particularly due to its component synergy and translational potential. Trials assessing the regenerative potential of cultured Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) and SVF demonstrate that SVF is comparably effective in treating conditions ranging from radiation injuries, burn wounds and diabetes, amongst others. Aside from their use in chronic conditions, SVF enrichment of fat grafts has proven a major advance in maintaining fat graft volume and viability. Many SVF studies are currently in preclinical phases or are moving to human trials. Overall, regenerative cell therapy based on SVF is at an early investigative stage but its potential for clinical application is enormous.
