Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Subcutaneous fat tissue is frequently used as a donor site of fat or adipocyte grafting. Subcutaneous fat tissue is anatomically separated into two layers by superficial fascia. Superficial fat tissue and deep fat tissue have different function basing on different anatomical structure. The difference in adipocyte function, however, between two layers is still unclear. Our result showed that cell survivability of adipocyte of superficial layer is superior to that of deep layer. Adipocyte differentiation potential is superior in superficial adipocyte compared to deep adipocyte. The difference in epigenetic modification can be one of the causes creating different cell function between two layers.
