Research Abstract	Freshly isolated adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction cells (SVF) have further advantages over ASC in that they are more readily collected and do not require any culturing prior to use. The study was to identify the enhancement of the regeneration process in the trachea obtained through the use of SVF.SVF show high levels of expression of the stem cell-associated markers CD90, CD105, and CD29, and possess pluripotency like ASC. Our results show that SVF have potential clinical applications as implantable stem cells for use in the regenerative medicine.
