Adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) grafting promotes wound healing and minimizes scarring, but the low efficiency of grafting has been a challenge.

Full-thickness wounds were created on Bama minipigs, which were applied with sham, ADSC, DRT, and ADSC-DRT. Wounds from the four groups were collected at the indicated time and histological analysis was performed. RNA-seq analysis was also conducted to identify transcriptional differences among the four groups. The identified genes by RNA-seq were verified by qPCR.
