Local anesthetic reduced ATD-MSCs growth. (a) Box and whisker plot showed a significant difference in the number of cells isolated from adipose tissues harvested with or without anesthetic. (b) The regression analysis showed that, after 7 days, the number of cells grown in culture was reduced when the anesthetic was added to the solution of infiltration, particularly in relation to the increasing of the patients’ age, .
