Sumario:Decellularized adipose tissue (DAT) is a promising biomaterial for adipose tissue engineering. However, there is a lack of research of DAT prepared from xenogeneic porcine adipose tissue. This study aimed to compare the adipogenic ability of DAT derived from porcine subcutaneous (SDAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VDAT). The retention of key collagen in decellularized matrix was analysed to study the biochemical properties of SDAT and VDAT. For the biomechanical study, both DAT materials were fabricated into three-dimensional (3D) porous scaffolds for rheology and compressive tests. Human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were cultured on both scaffolds to further investigate the effect of matrix stiffness on cellular morphology and on adipogenic differentiation. ADSCs cultured on soft VDAT exhibited significantly reduced cellular area and upregulated adipogenic markers compared to those cultured on SDAT. In vivo results revealed higher adipose regeneration in the VDAT compared to the SDAT. This study further demonstrated that the relative expression of collagen IV and laminin was significantly higher in VDAT than in SDAT, while the collagen I expression and matrix stiffness of SDAT was significantly higher in comparison to VDAT. This result suggested that porcine adipose tissue could serve as a promising candidate for preparing DAT.
