Adipose stromal cell (ASC) graft enhanced periodontal ligament (PDL) neovascularization. (A–D): Six weeks after treatment, the number of >50‐µm diameter PDL vessels (A), <50‐µm diameter PDL vessels (B), alveolar bone PDL vessels (C), and gingival PDL vessels (D) was significantly higher in ASC‐treated sites than in vehicle‐treated sites. ∗, p < .05; ∗∗, p < .01; ∗∗∗, p < .001, indicating a significant difference between treatment and control sides. Abbreviations: ASC, adipose stromal cell; b, indicates a significant difference in the treatment side between each time point and 0 week (baseline); n, indicates a significant difference of the treatment side at each time point and not colonized; PDL, periodontal ligament.
