Abstract (original English)

Over the last few decades, adipose tissue has attracted increasing attention in the field of regenerative medicine, thanks to discoveries related to its regenerative, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic properties. Over the years, with the advancement of sophisticated research around adipose tissue, there has been a shift from tissue transfer to cell transfer, and then to the application of cell-free derivatives and bioengineering. Understanding the evolution of this scientific revolution around adipose tissue not only helps clarify potential therapeutic products and indications but also allows us to discuss its limitations and future directions.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • This is a narrative review: it collects no new patient data and does not systematically appraise evidence quality.

Evidence level

Evidence from laboratory and animal studies provides groundwork for understanding mechanisms and potential before human studies continue.
