Abstract (original English)
This study aimed to develop a treatment for chronic kidney disease (CKD) by investigating whether transplantation of biofabricated adipose-derived mesenchymal cell (AMC) sheets could improve renal tissue and function. Thirty-nine ten-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent the harvesting of adipose tissues and right nephrectomy. AMCs that were collected from adipose tissues were labeled and cultured on temperature-responsive dishes and applied to a gelatin hydrogel sheet. Subsequently, two identical AMC-gelatin sheets were attached together to biofabricate a bilayered AMC-gelatin sheet. Furthermore, 3 weeks after nephrectomy, the renal artery and vein of the left kidney were clamped, and the kidney was sprayed with liquid nitrogen for 60 s. The biofabricated AMC sheet was autologously transplanted into the renal capsule of the cryo-injured region ( n = 14). Control rats were given acellular sheet ( n = 25). One day before and 4 weeks after transplantation, blood and 24-h urinary specimens were collected. Histological analysis of the experimental kidneys was performed 4 weeks after transplantation. Four weeks after transplantation, in the acellular control-transplanted rats, creatinine clearance levels tended to increase, and serum creatinine levels significantly increased. However, in the biofabricated AMC sheet-transplanted rats, creatinine clearance levels significantly i
What this study does not prove
- • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
