title: [RESEARCH PROGRESS OF CONSTRUCTING INJECTABLE TISSUE ENGINEERED ADIPOSE TISSUE WITH ADIPOSE-DERIVED STEM CELLS].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To review the research progress of constructing injectable tissue engineered adipose tissue by adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs).
  
  
  METHODS
  Recent literature about ADSCs composite three-dimensional scaffold to construct injectable tissue engineered adipose tissue is summarized, mainly on the characteristics of ADSCs, innovation of injectable scaffold, and methods to promote blood supply.
  
  
  RESULTS
  ADSCs have a sufficient amount and powerful ability such as secretion, excellent compatibility with injectable scaffold, plus with methods of promoting blood supply, which can build forms of injectable tissue engineered adipose tissue.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In despite of many problems to be dealt with, ADSCs constructing injectable tissue engineered adipose tissue may provide a promising source for soft-tissue defect repair and plastic surgery.
