TRANSPLANTATION OF HUMAN ADIPOSE TISSUE TO NUDE MICE

Abstract
All the human adipose tissue grafts were accepted and contained fat cells easily distinguishable from those of the mouse. No detectable relation between the histological pictures before and after grafting was found. In some transplants nerve tissue, and in others macrophages containing fat droplets, were found. The fat tissue graft might be useful for investigation of the influence of various hormones on human fat cells.
