Preparation and transplantation of different implants. (a–c) ASC+bone granule complex: (a) biomembranes, (b) ASCs were seeded on 0.02 g bone granules above the biomembrane, and (c) the ASC+bone granule complex together with the biomembrane were transplanted in the CSD of T2DM rat. (d–f) ASC sheet+bone granule complex: (d) ASC sheet pellet which started from ASCs in 60 mm petri dishes and cultured in cell sheet induction medium for 7 days, (e) the complex of the ASC sheet and 0.02 g bone granules, and (f) the ASC sheet+bone granule complex was transplanted in CSD of the T2DM rat and covered by the biomembrane.
