Public Release: 10-Dec-2008 Cell Transplantation Transplanted fat cells restore function after spinal cord injury eurekalert.org Fat cells, plentiful and easily obtained from adipose tissues without discomfort and grown under culture conditions as de-differentiated fat cells (DFAT), have been for the first time shown to successfully differentiate into neuronal cells in in vivo tests. DFAT, with none of the features of adipocytes, have shown potential to differentiate into endothelial, neuronal or glial lineages, thus demonstrating their potential for a source for cell replacement therapy to treat central nervous system disorders.
