Microvascular fragment spheroids: Three-dimensional vascularization units for tissue engineering and regeneration

Adipose tissue-derived microvascular fragments (MVF) serve as vascularization units in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Because a three-dimensional cellular arrangement has been shown to improve cell function, we herein generated for the first time MVF spheroids to investigate whether t...
