Comparison of the effect of activated or non-activated PRP in various concentrations on osteoblast and fibroblast cell line proliferation

Platelet-Rich Plasma in Young and Elderly Humans Exhibits a Different Proteomic Profile

As people age, their ability to resist injury and repair damage decreases significantly. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has demonstrated diverse therapeutic effects on tissue repair. However, the inconsistency of patient outcomes poses a challenge to the practical application of PRP in clinical practice. Furthermore, a comprehensive understanding of the specific impact of aging on PRP requires a systematic investigation. We derived PRP from 6 young volunteers and 6 elderly volunteers, respectively. Subsequently, 95% of high-abundance proteins were removed, followed by mass spectrometry analysis. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with the identifier PXD050061. We detected a total of 739 proteins and selected 311 proteins that showed significant differences, including 76 upregulated proteins in the young group and 235 upregulated proteins in the elderly group. Functional annotation and enrichment analysis unveiled upregulation of proteins associated with cell apoptosis, angiogenesis, and complement and coagulation cascades in the elderly. Conversely, IGF1 was found to be upregulated in the young group, potentially serving as the central source of enhanced cell proliferation ability. Our investigation not only provides insights into standardizing PRP preparation but also offers novel strategies for augmenting the functionality of aging cells or tissues.

Advances with Platelet-Rich Plasma for Bone Healing

Despite significant advances in the understanding and delivery of osteosynthesis, fracture non-union remains a challenging clinical problem in orthopaedic surgery. To bridge the gap, basic science characterization of fracture healing provides a platform to identify and target biological strategies to enhance fracture healing. Of immense interest, Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a point of care orthobiologic that has been extensively studied in bone and soft tissue healing given its relative ease of translation from the benchtop to the clinic. The aim of this narrative review is to describe and relate pre-clinical in-vitro and in-vivo findings to clinical observations investigating the efficacy of PRP to enhance bone healing for primary fracture management and non-union treatment. A particular emphasis is placed on the heterogeneity of PRP preparation techniques, composition, activation strategies, and delivery. In the context of existing data, the routine use of PRP to enhance primary fracture healing and non-union management cannot be supported. However, it is acknowledged that extensive heterogeneity of PRP treatments in clinical studies adds obscurity; ultimately, refinement (and consensus) of PRP treatments for specific clinical indications, including repetition studies are warranted.

Meta-analysis on the Efficacy of Platelet-rich Plasma in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous platelet concentrate in plasma enriched with growth factors that may stimulate tissue regeneration, collagen formation, re-epithelization, and angiogenesis. PRP is widely used as an androgenetic alopecia treatment option. The present work aims to test the efficacy of various PRP methods, including those with single-spin and double-spin centrifugation. We performed a review of articles published from 2011 to 2021 in PubMed and ScienceDirect. The studies vary in the preparation procedure, dose, number, intervals between the procedures, and the injection technique because of low standardization of PRP preparation, complicating the evaluation of the clinical efficacy of the method. Based on the conducted statistical analysis, we came to the conclusion that the double-spin PRP preparation method was superior to the single-spin technique, which may be taken into account for AGA management.

Platelet-Rich Plasma for Knee Osteoarthritis: What Does the Evidence Say?

The utilization of platelet-rich-plasma as a therapeutic intervention for knee osteoarthritis has gained immense attention since 2008. The increase in the number of scientific publications dedicated to this area can be attributed to the majority of favorable results reported in clinical trials and basic science studies. However, despite the growing evidence, the use of platelet-rich plasma in clinical practice still poses controversial aspects. The potential mechanisms of action described for platelet-rich-plasma so far indicate that it could serve as a disease-modifying drug, acting to counteract important aspects of knee osteoarthritis pathophysiology (cartilage breakdown, inflammation, and bone remodeling). Nevertheless, its efficacy in slowing down the progression of knee osteoarthritis remains unproven. While inconsistencies have been noted, the majority of controlled clinical trials and meta-analyses advocate for the utilization of platelet-rich-plasma in treating knee osteoarthritis, as it has demonstrated greater efficacy than hyaluronic acid and placebo, with a follow-up of at least 1 year. Despite advancements made in certain areas, significant diversity persists regarding the formulations used, therapeutic regimen, extended follow-up periods, patient selection, and assessment of clinically relevant outcomes. Consequently, the leading clinical practice guidelines do not recommend its use. In light of the emerging evidence, this narrative review aims to provide an objective evaluation of the recent available scientific literature (last 5 years) focused on randomized clinical trials and meta-analyses to present a current overview of the topic.

A narrative review on subcutaneous injection components used for alopecia

BACKGROUND

Studies reporting the development and effectiveness of topical agents for alopecia are available. However, it was difficult to demonstrate a direct advantage of subcutaneous injection rather than topical application. Since existing articles lack information, future studies are needed to solve these problems and to narrow the knowledge gap.

AIMS

Present article is aimed to review of the possible materials used in subcutaneous injection for alopecia with a hope for better guiding the analytic application and further evaluating the effective component for alopecia management.

METHODS

A wide range of clinical articles was retrieved using electronic databases to determine the possible components used in subcutaneous injection and their potential mechanism of action.

RESULTS

Eight components from 19 articles were found to be used for alopecia via subcutaneous administration.

CONCLUSIONS

The current study illuminated the curative effects of possible substances and discussed the efficacy of subcutaneous injections.

Platelet-Rich Plasma as an Orthobiologic: Clinically Relevant Considerations

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood-derived product processed to concentrate platelets and the associated growth factors. PRP has been shown to be relatively well-tolerated and safe to use for a number of conditions in humans, equines, and canines. There are multiple commercial systems that have been validated for canine use. These systems use a variety of methodologies to produce a PRP product. However, PRP products have been shown to differ greatly between systems. Further study is needed to fully elucidate optimal component concentrations for various indications.

Why might ovarian rejuvenation fail? Decision analysis of variables impacting reproductive response after autologous platelet-rich plasma

Experience with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has accumulated from use in dental restoration, post-infarct myocardial repair, tendon surgery, pain management, and aesthetic enhancements. Reproductive medicine joined this arena in 2016, beginning with reports of menopause reversal and fertility recovery after autologous PRP for senescent ovaries. Although recent publications have highlighted benefits of 'ovarian rejuvenation', the absence of randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial data has limited its acceptance. Because selection bias tends to underreport negative outcomes, reliable estimates cannot be calculated for how often intraovarian PRP is unsuccessful. Ample information is available, however, to permit an operational root-cause analysis when failures are considered. This assessment uses a PRP treatment care path with a decision theory model to critique pre-intake screening, baseline audit, sample processing, ovarian tissue placement method, equipment selection, and follow-up monitoring. These branched choice points enable interventions likely to determine outcome. Specimen handling for intraovarian PRP merits particular scrutiny, since enormous variation in platelet protocols already exists across unrelated clinical areas. As a new addition to fertility practice, intraovarian PRP requires validation of safety and efficacy to gain wider support. Borrowing PRP knowledge from other domains can facilitate this goal, ideally with appreciation of aspects unique to intraovarian use.

Platelet-Rich Plasma for Bone Fracture Treatment: A Systematic Review of Current Evidence in Preclinical and Clinical Studies

Background: Recently, there is an increasing interest in the therapeutic potential of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for bone fracture treatment. Nevertheless, the effect of PRP for bone fracture treatment remains controversial and is still a matter of discussion. Therefore, we performed a systematic review to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PRP injection for treatment of bone fracture. Methods: The main bibliographic databases, including Medline, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane library, were comprehensively searched for studies focusing on the application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on bone fracture treatment. All relevant articles were screened for eligibility and subdivided into the preclinical and clinical studies. Data were extracted and presented systematically. Results: Finally, twenty-six in vitro preclinical studies (basic studies), nine in vivo preclinical studies (animal studies), and nine clinical studies, met the selection criteria, and were included in the present systematic review. Preclinical studies showed an overall positive effect of PRP on osteoblast-like cells in vitro and bone healing in animal models. The most used treatment for bone fracture in animal and clinical studies is fixation surgery combined with PRP injection. The clinical studies reported PRP shortened bony healing duration, and had no positive effect on improving the healing rate of closed fractures. However, the results of functional outcomes are controversial. Additionally, compared with control group, PRP would not increase the rate of postoperative wound infection. Conclusion: The present systematic review confirmed the continuing interests of PRP as an additional treatment for bone fracture. Preclinical studies highlighted the potential value of PRP as promising therapy for bone fracture. However, the preclinical evidence did not translate into a similar result in the clinical studies. In addition, types of fractures and procedures of PRP preparation are heterogeneous in enrolled studies, which might result in controversial results. Meanwhile, characteristics of PRP, such as platelet concentration, the numbers of leukocytes, still need to be determined and further research is required.

Effect of mesenchymal stem cells with platelet-rich plasma carriers on bone formation after rapid maxillary expansion: An Animal Study

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effect of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) with or without platelet-rich plasma (PRP) carriers on sutural new bone formation after rapid palatal expansion (RPE).

SETTINGS AND SAMPLE POPULATION

Sixty male Wistar rats were used in this study.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

All samples were subjected to 50cN of palatal expansion force for 7 days followed by 3 weeks of the retention period. The experimental groups received a single-dose injection of the specified solution at the time of retainer placement (BMSCs, PRP, BMSCs+PRP, normal saline). BMSCs used in this study were marked with the green fluorescent protein (GFP). New bone formation (NBF) in the sutural area was evaluated by µCT and occlusal radiography. In addition, semi-quantitative analyses were performed on histology images to analyse the quality of sutural bone, connective tissue and vascularization. Immunohistochemistry analyses were conducted for osteocalcin and collagen type I proteins.

RESULTS

After the 21-day retention period, limited GFP marked cells were detected around the sutural area. Samples treated with BMSCs + PRP had the highest NBF and showed higher expression of collagen type I and osteocalcin.

CONCLUSION

Injecting BMSCs + PRP may increase sutural bone density significantly. However, injecting BMSCs or PRP carriers alone did not affect sutural bone density.

Combination of preconditioned adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells and platelet-rich plasma improves the repair of osteoarthritis in rat

Aim: To observe the combined effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and preconditioned adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) on the injured articular cartilage of the rat. Materials & methods: Animals in the study received an intra-articular injection of PRP and preconditioned ADMSCs, both in combination and separately. The response to therapeutic intervention was evaluated by inflammatory markers, proteoglycans content, chondrogenesis and gene expression analyses. Results: The combined therapy resulted in a reduction of IL-6 and TNF-α, increased proteoglycan content of the articular cartilage, upregulation of Acan, Col2a1 and PCNA genes. Downregulation of Col1a1, Col10a1 and Casp3 genes was observed as compared with the untreated osteoarthritis rat model. Conclusion: PRP potentiates the effects of ADMSCs on the repair of damaged articular cartilage.

Technical Procedures for Preparation and Administration of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Related Products: A Scoping Review

Introduction

Platelet-rich plasma is widely used for different types of clinical situations, but universal standardization of procedures for its preparation is still lacking.

Methods

Scoping review of comparative studies that have assessed at least two alternatives in one or more stages of preparation, storage and/or administration of PRP or its related products. A systematic search was conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, and LILACS. Two authors screened references independently. Data extraction was performed iteratively, and results were presented for each included comparison.

Results

Thirty-nine studies were included after assessing full texts, focusing on the comparison of PRP to a related product, types of anticoagulants, centrifugation protocols, commercial kits, processing time, methods for activation, and application concomitantly to other substances. Only laboratory outcomes were assessed, as platelet, leukocyte and growth factor concentrations.

Conclusion

Results showed great variability related to methods employed in different stages of PRP processing, which may explain the variability observed in clinical trials assessing the efficacy of PRP for different clinical situations.

Platelet-Rich Plasma: New Performance Understandings and Therapeutic Considerations in 2020

Emerging autologous cellular therapies that utilize platelet-rich plasma (PRP) applications have the potential to play adjunctive roles in a variety of regenerative medicine treatment plans. There is a global unmet need for tissue repair strategies to treat musculoskeletal (MSK) and spinal disorders, osteoarthritis (OA), and patients with chronic complex and recalcitrant wounds. PRP therapy is based on the fact that platelet growth factors (PGFs) support the three phases of wound healing and repair cascade (inflammation, proliferation, remodeling). Many different PRP formulations have been evaluated, originating from human, in vitro, and animal studies. However, recommendations from in vitro and animal research often lead to different clinical outcomes because it is difficult to translate non-clinical study outcomes and methodology recommendations to human clinical treatment protocols. In recent years, progress has been made in understanding PRP technology and the concepts for bioformulation, and new research directives and new indications have been suggested. In this review, we will discuss recent developments regarding PRP preparation and composition regarding platelet dosing, leukocyte activities concerning innate and adaptive immunomodulation, serotonin (5-HT) effects, and pain killing. Furthermore, we discuss PRP mechanisms related to inflammation and angiogenesis in tissue repair and regenerative processes. Lastly, we will review the effect of certain drugs on PRP activity, and the combination of PRP and rehabilitation protocols.

Emerging autologous cellular therapies that utilize platelet-rich plasma (PRP) applications have the potential to play adjunctive roles in a variety of regenerative medicine treatment plans. There is a global unmet need for tissue repair strategies to treat musculoskeletal (MSK) and spinal disorders, osteoarthritis (OA), and patients with chronic complex and recalcitrant wounds. PRP therapy is based on the fact that platelet growth factors (PGFs) support the three phases of wound healing and repair cascade (inflammation, proliferation, remodeling). Many different PRP formulations have been evaluated, originating from human, in vitro, and animal studies. However, recommendations from in vitro and animal research often lead to different clinical outcomes because it is difficult to translate non-clinical study outcomes and methodology recommendations to human clinical treatment protocols. In recent years, progress has been made in understanding PRP technology and the concepts for bioformulation, and new research directives and new indications have been suggested. In this review, we will discuss recent developments regarding PRP preparation and composition regarding platelet dosing, leukocyte activities concerning innate and adaptive immunomodulation, serotonin (5-HT) effects, and pain killing. Furthermore, we discuss PRP mechanisms related to inflammation and angiogenesis in tissue repair and regenerative processes. Lastly, we will review the effect of certain drugs on PRP activity, and the combination of PRP and rehabilitation protocols.
