read my posts today, and this one about fat stem cells
The study, published in the April issue of Tissue Engineering, had researchers take the fat and fluid drained from the hips, buttock and stomachs of liposuction patients.
The material was then washed, purified and treated with an enzyme to break down the matrix holding he cells together and compared to stem cells from bone marrow.
Scientists found that a half-pound of the fatty substance yielded as many as 50 million to 100 million undifferentiated stem-like cells.
