Human Adipose Derived Cells in Two- and Three-Dimensional Cultures: Functional Validation of an In Vitro Fat Construct

Figure 3

Temporal immunophenotype and gelling behavior of SVF cells cultured in 3 dimensions in human-derived ObaGel. Studies investigating the correlation of cell seeding density and ObaGel concentration to gel stability were performed (a), and whole plate images were taken (b). Gel stability was measured and reported as a percentage (%) total gelling. Investigations into impact on SVF immunophenotype from freshly isolated SVF cells compared to ObaGel cultures at days 1 and 7 (c). 100% gel formation was maintained in 7.5% ObaGel-supplemented medium (), in the absence of any additional supplementary growth factors (d). Values reported as . .
