[Cellular compatibility of type collagen I scaffold and human adipose-derived stem cells].
OBJECTIVE
To study the cellular compatibility of type I collagen scaffold and human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC(S)) in order to explore appropriate scaffold materials for adipose tissue engineering.


METHODS
The morphology and function of the ADSC(S) were observed by inverted phase contrast microscope, scanning electron microscope and XTT assay when cocultured type I collagen scaffold with ADSC(S) in vitro. Cells adhesive rates were also calculated.


RESULTS
ADSC(S) were able to attach, grow and proliferate well on the scaffolds.


CONCLUSIONS
collagen I scaffold exhibits excellent cellular compatibility and can be used as a vehicle for adipose tissue engineering.
