  • Publication number: 20220339196
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating obesity or non-alcoholic fatty liver, containing dental tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells cryopreserved by vitrification. The pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating obesity or non-alcoholic fatty liver, of the present invention, reduces body weight, lowers serum adipokine concentration, allows the liver to recover in view of histological findings, and improves lipid metabolic enzymes in the liver, thereby exhibiting remarkable prevention and treatment effects on obesity or non-alcoholic fatty liver. In addition, dental tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, which are the active ingredients of the present invention, are mesodermal stem cells having verified safety and may be obtained with the least invasiveness, and thus are expected to be effectively used as a cell therapeutic agent for obesity or non-alcoholic fatty liver.
