Abstract:
The survival rate of fat grafts is challenging to predict, and related complications such as oil cyst formation and fat necrosis may occur. The primary cause is that adipocytes are destroyed during fat grafting, and adipocyte necrosis releases a large number of oil droplets. Understanding the lipid metabolism of fat grafts, including intracellular lipid metabolism and extracellular oil droplet metabolism, is crucial to improve the survival rate of fat grafts and reduce complications. This article primarily explored the lipid metabolism and associated immune regulation of adipocytes and macrophages under both physiological and inflammatory conditions after fat grafting, and explained the mutual regulatory relationship between fat graft metabolism and the host’s overall lipid metabolism.
