Abstract: Methods are provided for treatment of several conditions of one or more body features, where the method comprises implanting an acellular soft tissue-derived matrix in, on, proximate to, or a combination thereof, the body feature, wherein the acellular soft tissue-derived matrix comprises a delipidated, decellularized adipose matrix. The delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue matrix is produced by delipidating an adipose tissue sample, followed by decellularizing the delipidated adipose tissue sample. The resulting matrix contains a proportion of lipids which is less than the proportion of lipids contained in a matrix produced by decellularizing an adipose tissue sample prior to delipidating. The delipidated, decellularized adipose matrix may be provided as particles, a slurry, a paste, a gel, an injectable form, or in some other form.

Abstract: An acellular soft tissue-derived matrix suitable for use as a medical graft or implant may comprise, for example, a delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue matrix. The delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue matrix is substantially free of substances that pose a significant risk of causing an immunogenic response in a patient receiving the matrix. Methods for producing the delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue matrix include the steps of delipidating an adipose tissue sample, followed by decellularizing the delipidated adipose tissue sample. The resulting delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue matrix contains a proportion of Type IV collagen which is greater than the proportion of Type IV collagen contained in a matrix produced by decellularizing an adipose tissue sample prior to delipidating.

Abstract: An acellular soft tissue-derived matrix includes a collagenous tissue that has been delipidated and decellularized. Adipose tissue is among the soft tissues suitable for manufacturing an acellular soft tissue-derived matrix. Exogenous tissuegenic cells and other biologically-active factors may be added to the acellular matrix. The acellular matrix may be provided as particles, a slurry, a paste, a gel, or in some other form. The acellular matrix may be provided as a three-dimensional scaffold that has been reconstituted from particles of the three-dimensional tissue. The three-dimensional scaffold may have the shape of an anatomical feature and serve as a template for tissue repair or replacement. A method of making an acellular soft tissue-derived matrix includes steps of removing lipid from the soft tissue by solvent extraction and chemical decellularization of the soft tissue.

Abstract: A composition including delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue and delipidated, decellularized fascial tissue is provided. The composition may further include exogenous tissuegenic cells, an exogenous growth-inductive substance, and/or a carrier. The composition is suitable for implantation into a living body in plastic surgery procedures, including reconstructive or cosmetic surgery procedures, wound care procedures or other procedures of regenerative medicine. A method of preparing an acellular soft tissue-derived matrix from adipose tissue and fascial tissue is also provided.
