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. Additionally, the delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue 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.
