Research Abstract |
This research was to investigate the influence of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) against the tumor development of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells. SCC cells with or without ASCs have been transplanted into the abdominal subcutaneous tissue of experimental animals. The experimental groups were prepared as follows; 1: SCC cells transplantation; 2: Co-transplantation of SCC cells with ASCs; 3: SCC cells and ASCs transplantation into different site; and 4: SCC cells transplantation and ASCs administration. After 12 weeks of cells injection, no significant differences for the tumor development were seen between the SCC cells transplantation and other co-transplantation groups.
