Brown Adipose Tissue Promotes Autologous Fat Grafts Retention Possibly Through Inhibiting Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway Aesth. Plast. Surg. (IF 2.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-26
Abstract Background In plastic surgery, autologous fat grafts (AFG) play an important role because of their abundant supply, biocompatibility, and low rejection rate. However, the lower retention rate of fat grafts limits their widespread use. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) can promote angiogenesis and regulate the level of associated inflammation. This study explored whether BAT has a facilitative effect
