| Core Tip |
Living drugs are cell-based therapies composed of viable, metabolically active cells that survive, adapt, and interact within the patient’s body, unlike conventional drugs with fixed chemical structures. Adipose tissue-derived products, such as stromal vascular fraction and adipose-derived stem cells, exemplify living drugs due to their ability to directly differentiate, secrete paracrine factors, modulate immunity, and promote angiogenesis and tissue repair. Stromal vascular fraction provides therapeutic synergy through its heterogeneous cell population, while adipose-derived stem cells offer high yield, accessibility, and potent secretory activity. Together, they represent promising regenerative strategies, shifting treatments toward durable, adaptive, and patient-specific repair. |
