Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell spheroid sheet accelerates regeneration of ulcerated oral mucosa by enhancing inherent therapeutic properties

The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of transplantation of an adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) spheroid sheet on the regeneration of ulcerated oral mucosa. The ASC spheroid sheet was constructed by seeding three-dimensional (3D) spheroidal ASCs on a temperature-responsive hydrogel, where cell adhesion and spreading were improved by incorporating fibronectin. The 3D culture of ASCs enhanced their inherent paracrine properties for...
