Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of human or animal adipose tissue grafts for allotransplantation or preferably for autologous transplant.
- the present invention relates to the treatment with ozone of the adipose tissue cells collected from the body of a human patient or an animal during the preparation of the graft.
- graft means a suitable quantity of adipose cells extracted from the body of an individual, treated, and that are ready to be implanted in the body of the same individual (autotransplantation, autologous transplant) or of a different individual (allotransplantation).
- adipose tissue from a point rich in adipose tissue like e.g. abdomen or thighs to a desired point like e.g. breasts or glutei is a procedure of reconstructive or aesthetic surgery known in the art. E.g., such a procedure can be used for reconstructing a breast after a surgical intervention for removing a tumour, or for a purely aesthetic intervention of additive mastoplasty.
- adipose tissue coming from the same patient autologous transplant
- adipose-derived stem cells in particular adipose-derived stem cells, endothelial progenitor cells, perivascular cells, macrophages, fibroblasts, lymphatic cells, which are connected to the adipose cells through the matrix of connective tissue.
- stem cells are multipotent regenerative cells with the potential to differentiate into a plurality of other cell types performing one or more specific functions, and have the capacity of autoregeneration.
- stem and regenerative cells are desired in the graft, in that they have a positive effect on the long-term success of grafting, e.g. promoting angiogenesis.
- sterile solutions for rinsing unprocessed adipose cells comprise sterile water, saline, Ringer’s lactate, Ringer’s acetate, phosphate-buffered saline, crystalloid solutions, colloidal solutions, 5% glucose in water, Hartmann’s solution and the like.
- adipose tissue grafting can lead to undesired effects like infections, necrosis, reabsorption of the graft by the body, calcifications and scarring, which derive at least in part from the lack of neovascularization of the graft and from the necrosis of the grafted tissue.
- graft rejection is the presence of impurities in the graft, like e.g. red blood cells, white blood cells, and/or free lipids (oil).
- impurities like e.g. red blood cells, white blood cells, and/or free lipids (oil).
- the membranes of such cells can be damaged leaking the content of the lipid droplets inside the adipose cells. It is known that such free lipids can lead to inflammation of the surrounding tissues, and in the worst cases, to necrosis and graft rejection.
- Body tissues are normally sterile, but once the cells have been extracted from the body, they can be contaminated by virus and/or bacteria that can be airborne or present on surfaces.
- the removal of the rinsing liquid allows to provide a preparation containing processed cells having a reduced liquid content, which constitute a dehydrated graft that can be grafted in the desired anatomical area immediately after collection and rinsing or of a dehydrated graft that can be cryopreserved in order to implant it in a subsequent moment.
- EP2424463B1 describes an alternative embodiment of the same invention, providing the use of a device comprising two chambers shown in the Figures 13, 14 of the document.
- Such chambers have substantially the shape of rigid cylinders in fluid communication, and from the point of view of performing the method, said cylinders can be likened to the chambers of the flexible bags.

- a method known in the art for preparing an adipose tissue graft comprises the following steps: a) Introducing a portion of unprocessed adipose tissue in a chamber of a device; b) Rinsing the unprocessed adipose tissue using a sterile liquid; c) Removing the liquid from the chamber containing said adipose cells, so obtaining a rinsed and dehydrated adipose tissue.
- Ozone is a gas naturally present in the atmosphere; its molecule consists of three atoms of oxygen. It is a highly unstable gas tending to rapidly decompose to molecular oxygen (O2). It is a strong oxidizing agent. Ozone is soluble in water.
- ozone has been known for a long time, but its clinical application is limited by its strong cytotoxicity at high doses.
- the aim of the present invention is providing a method and a device for performing such method capable of improving the success of adipose cell grafting.
- the present invention provides a method comprising the already known steps a), b), c), wherein the rinsing step b) is performed by placing said adipose cells in contact with a suitable quantity of ozone (O3).
- Said ozone can be placed in contact with cells in the form of a liquid solution containing a suitable quantity of dissolved ozone (ozonized solution), or in the form of a mixture of oxygen/ozone gas in suitable quantities for cell fumigation.
- the treatment with ozone is performed using a gaseous solution containing 0.1 to 8% of ozone (O3) in in a gaseous solution containing 99.9 to 92% of oxygen (O2).
- the quantity of ozone in oxygen can vary 0.1 to 80 micrograms per millilitre.
- the final ozonized solution contains 1 pg to 80 pg of ozone per mL of solution, equivalent to 0.1 - 8% of ozone in oxygen weight/volume.
- the bubbling time in ultra-filtered water, or in saline solution (0,9% NaCl) or in one of the sterile liquids used for rinsing, needed to form the ozonized solution is a time comprised in 0.1 - 10 minutes, preferably 0.1-4 minutes.

- the method of treatment with ozone according to the present invention is provided with two main advantages.
- the first advantage is that ozone is provided with a known disinfecting activity, therefore is capable of destroying possible bacterial and/or viral contaminations present in the adipose cells, so preventing the occurrence of infections once the graft has been grafted in the body of a patient, and the potential rejection of the graft in the long-term.
- the second advantage is that the treatment with low quantities of ozone can promote the anti-oxidant response of cells, activating adipogenesis and the stimulation of stem and regenerative cells contained in the graft of adipose tissue, so improving the probabilities of success of the grafting.
- Stem cells treated with ozone tend to be more numerous, vital and active, increasing their efficacy when they are grafted in the patient.

- a suitable quantity of oxygen-ozone mixture is inserted, using the entry port 6’ of the second chamber 12.
- the ozone by mixing with the liquid wherein cells are immersed, forms an ozonized solution.
- the desired contact time is maintained, then the ozonized liquid is channelled from the second chamber 12 to the third chamber 13.
