Enhancing Autologous Fat Graft Retention: The Impact of Inactive Vitamin D3 on Immune Modulation and Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in a Swine Model
Abstract Autologous fat grafting (AFG) is a widely utilized surgical technique, but graft survival rates remain inconsistent and unpredictable. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of oral vitamin D3 (VD3) on long-term AFG retention in a porcine model and examine its mechanisms. Inguinally harvested adipo...
