Research Abstract |
It has been known that adipose-derived regenerative cells(ADRCs) secrete multiple angiogenic growth factors. We reported that ADRCs implantation improve severe ischemia and seems to be a useful strategy of therapeutic angiogenesis. Next, we focused on VEGF-C that ADRCs released. ADRCs therapy increased lymphatic capillary density and significantly reduced tissue edema. We consider that BM derived M2 macrophages plays an important role in postnatal lymphangiogenesis.
