Introduction: Autologous transplantation of adipose stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is a cost-effective and technically accessible option for cell therapy. Clinical study of SVF transplantation for male stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is underway, but the effectiveness remains unknown for female SUI, majority of which is caused by childbirth trauma. Methods: Vaginal Distension (VD) rats were generated as in vivo model for female SUI. To quantitate the severity of SUI, leak point pressure (LPP) was measured by placing a bladder catheter. There was a characteristic waveform of LPP with two-peaks, and we counted the second peak as an LPP value. Adipose SVF was separated from inguinal fat and delivered into external urethral sphincter (EUS) through transperineal injection. LPP was measured 7 or 14 days after SVF transplantation. Tissue damage and collagen synthesis around the EUS were visualized by Masson's trichrome and eosin staining. Antibody against α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) was used to stain smooth muscle or activated stromal cells. Donor SVF cells were distinguished from recipient EUS tissue by tracking with GFP transgene. Results: VD procedure decreased the frequency at which the normal LPP waveform appeared and lowered the LPP value. SVF injection normalized the waveform as well as the level of LPP. VD disrupted histological structure of EUS and SVF failed to differentiate into striatal muscles. Instead, SVF increased α-SMA positive cells and collagen synthesis but the phenomena depended on VD stimulus. GFP tracking indicated that the transplanted SVF cells persisted for four weeks and synthesized α-SMA protein simultaneously. Conclusions: Autologous transplantation of adipose SVF displayed bulking effects through collagen synthesis. However, such heterotopic activation was dependent on tissue damage.
