Abstract
Skin injuries are a global healthcare problem. Chronic ulcers do not heal in a timely fashion, so it is essential to help the body with skin repair. There are some treatments that have been applied to chronic ulcers. One of these treatments is growth factor (GF) therapy. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and Platelet-poor plasma (PPP) are two types of plasma derivatives containing many GFs important for wound healing. Several works have reported their application in wound healing and tissue regeneration. The use of autologous PRP is now an adequate alternative in regenerative medicine. It was also demonstrated that PPP is a hemostatic agent for wounds. This review has studied the latest clinical studies, which have applied PRP and PPP to patients with chronic wounds.

[PMID: 38797743 PMCID: PMC11128439 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-62855-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Novel wound dressings with therapeutic effects are being continually designed to improve the wound healing process. In this study, the structural, chemical, physical, and biological properties of an electrospun poly glycerol sebacate/poly lactide acid/platelet-rich plasma (PGS/PLA-PRP) nanofibers were evaluated to determine its impacts on in vitro wound healing. Results revealed desirable cell viability in the Fibroblast (L929) and macrophage (RAW-264.7) cell lines as well as human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Cell migration was evident in the scratch assay (L929 cell line) so that it promoted scratch contraction to accelerate in vitro wound healing. Moreover, addition of PRP to the fiber structure led to enhanced collagen deposition (~ 2 times) in comparison with PGS/PLA scaffolds. While by addition PRP to PGS/PLA fibers not only decreased the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) in RAW-264.7 cells but also led to significantly increased levels of cytokine (IL-10) and the growth factor (TGF-β), which are related to the anti-inflammatory phase (M2 phenotype). Finally, PGS/PLA-PRP was found to induce a significant level of angiogenesis by forming branching points, loops, and tubes. Based on the results obtained, the PGS/PLA-PRP dressing developed might be a promising evolution in skin tissue engineering ensuring improved wound healing and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Wound healing will be enhanced using structures with therapeutic effects. This study fabricated a novel nanofibrous scaffold for skin tissue regeneration using a coaxial structure polyglycerol sebacate (PGS)/platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was embedded in the core and two different compositions were selected for the shell; in one group, polycaprolactone (PCL), and in the other group, PGS/PCL blend was used. The physical, mechanical behavior, drug delivery patterns, and cell response of scaffolds were evaluated. Results revealed that by adding PRP to the core and PGS to the shell, fiber diameters decreased to 260.8 ± 31.3 nm. It also decreased the water contact angle from 66° to 32°, that is ideal candidate for cell attachment. The drug release showed a burst release pattern in the first 30 min, followed by a continuous and slow release during the first day. Adding PGS to the shell decreased the elastic modulus, and its value reached about 500 kPa, which is near the skin elastic modulus and will lead to greater mechanical compatibility for cell proliferation. Particularly, the addition of PRP to the fiber structure enhanced the cell viability and cell adhesion with a suitable morphology. Based on the results, nanofibrous PGS-PRP/PGS-PCL dressing can enhance skin tissue regeneration.

Co-release of nitric oxide and L-arginine from poly (β-amino ester)-based adhesive reprogram macrophages for accelerated wound healing and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 158:213762. [PMID: 38227989 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213762] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024]
Abstract
Recently, insufficient angiogenesis and prolonged inflammation are crucial challenges of chronic skin wound healing. The sustained release of L-Arginine (L-Arg) and nitric oxide (NO) production can control immune responses, improve angiogenesis, enhance re-epithelialization, and accelerate wound healing. Here, we aim to improve wound healing via the controlled release of NO and L-Arg from poly (β-amino ester) (PβAE). In this regard, PβAE is functionalized with methacrylate poly-L-Arg (PAMA), and the role of PAMA content (50, 66, and 75 wt%) on the adhesive properties, L-Arg, and NO release, as well as collagen deposition, inflammatory responses, and angiogenesis, is investigated in vitro and in vivo. Results show that the PAMA/ PβAE could provide suitable adhesive strength (~25 kPa) for wound healing application. In addition, increasing the PAMA content from 50 to 75 wt% results in an increased release of L-Arg (approximately 1.4-1.7 times) and enhanced NO production (approximately 2 times), promoting skin cell proliferation and migration. The in vitro studies also show that compared to PβAE hydrogel, incorporation of 66 wt% PAMA (PAMA 66 sample) reveals superior collagen I synthesis (~ 3-4 times) of fibroblasts, controlled pro-inflammatory and improved anti-inflammatory cytokines secretion of macrophages, and accelerated angiogenesis (~1.5-2 times). In vivo studies in a rat model with a full-thickness skin defect also demonstrate the PAMA66 sample could accelerate wound healing (~98 %) and angiogenesis, compared to control (untreated wound) and Tegaderm™ commercial wound dressing. In summary, the engineered multifunctional PAMA functionalized PβAE hydrogel with desired NO and L-Arg release, and adhesive properties can potentially reprogram macrophages and accelerate skin healing for chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Platelet concentrates such as platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin or concentrated growth factors are cost-effective autologous preparations containing various growth factors, including platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor β, insulin-like growth factor 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor. For this reason, they are often used in regenerative medicine to treat wounds, nerve damage as well as cartilage and bone defects. Unfortunately, after administration, these preparations release growth factors very quickly, which lose their activity rapidly. As a consequence, this results in the need to repeat the therapy, which is associated with additional pain and discomfort for the patient. Recent research shows that combining platelet concentrates with biomaterials overcomes this problem because growth factors are released in a more sustainable manner. Moreover, this concept fits into the latest trends in tissue engineering, which include biomaterials, bioactive factors and cells. Therefore, this review presents the latest literature reports on the properties of biomaterials enriched with platelet concentrates for applications in skin, nerve, cartilage and bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major injuries that are caused by trauma and cancer can not be repaired through bone remodeling. The goal of bone regeneration by tissue engineering approaches is to fabricate bone implants in order to restore bone structure and functions. The use of stem cells and polymer scaffolds provides the conditions for tissue regeneration based on tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to fabricate a combined matrix of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and propolis extract, which is a mixture of pollen and beeswax collected by bees from certain plants and has long been used in traditional herbal medicine, to promote the osteogenic differentiation of human adipose- derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs). METHODS The scaffold was fabricated through electrospinning and was immersed in a propolis extract solution. Then, AD-MSCs were cultured and differentiated into the osteogenic lineage. The cell viability on the scaffold was evaluated by MTT assay. Osteogenic differentiation of the seeded stem cells was detected by evaluating calcium content, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and the expression of bonespecific genes. RESULTS The viability of cells was not affected by propolis-coated and uncoated fabricated scaffolds, while higher calcium content, ALP activity, and expression of RUNX-2, type I collagen, osteocalcin, and osteonectin were observed in cells differentiated on propolis-coated PLGA scaffold on days 7, 14, and 21 of differentiation compared to PLGA scaffold. CONCLUSION The results of this study showed that the presence of propolis in the scaffold could lead to better cell attachment and strengthen the osteoinduction process in stem cells.

Abstract
Reconstruction of critical-size bone defects (CSDs) in the craniomaxillofacial (CMF) region remains challenging. Scaffold-based bone-engineered constructs have been proposed as an alternative to the classical treatments made with autografts and allografts. Scaffolds, a key component of engineered constructs, have been traditionally viewed as biologically passive temporary replacements of deficient bone lacking intrinsic cues to promote osteogenesis. Nowadays, scaffolds are functionalized, giving rise to bioactive scaffolds promoting bone regeneration more effectively than conventional counterparts. This review focuses on the three approaches most used to bioactivate scaffolds: (1) conferring microarchitectural designs or surface nanotopography; (2) loading bioactive molecules; and (3) seeding stem cells on scaffolds, providing relevant examples of in vivo (preclinical and clinical) studies where these methods are employed to enhance CSDs healing in the CMF region. From these, adding bioactive molecules (specifically bone morphogenetic proteins or BMPs) to scaffolds has been the most explored to bioactivate scaffolds. Nevertheless, the downsides of grafting BMP-loaded scaffolds in patients have limited its successful translation into clinics. Despite these drawbacks, scaffolds containing safer, cheaper, and more effective bioactive molecules, combined with stem cells and topographical cues, remain a promising alternative for clinical use to treat CSDs in the CMF complex replacing autografts and allografts.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) holds great promise for addressing the growing need for innovative therapies to treat disease conditions. To achieve this, TERM relies on various strategies and techniques. The most prominent strategy is the development of a scaffold. Polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan (PVA-CS) scaffold emerged as a promising material in this field due to its biocompatibility, versatility, and ability to support cell growth and tissue regeneration. Preclinical studies showed that the PVA-CS scaffold can be fabricated and tailored to fit the specific needs of different tissues and organs. Additionally, PVA-CS can be combined with other materials and technologies to enhance its regenerative capabilities. Furthermore, PVA-CS represents a promising therapeutic solution for developing new and innovative TERM therapies. Therefore, in this review, we summarized the potential role and functions of PVA-CS in TERM applications.

Abstract
The physiological healing process is disrupted in many cases using the current wound healing procedures, resulting in delayed wound healing. Hydrogel wound dressings provide a moist environment to enhance granulation tissue and epithelium formation in the wound area. However, exudate accumulation, bacterial proliferation, and reduced levels of growth factors are difficulties of hydrogel dressings. Here, we loaded platelet-rich fibrin-chitosan (CH-PRF) nanoparticles into the gelatin-chitosan hydrogel (Gel-CH/CH-PRF) by solvent mixing method. Our goal was to evaluate the characteristics of hydrogel dressings, sustained release of proteins from the hydrogel dressing containing PRF, and reduction in the risk of infection by the bacteria in the wound area. The Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel showed excellent swelling behavior, good porosity, proper specific surface area, high absorption of wound exudates, and proper vapor permeability rate (2023 g/m 2.day), which provided requisite moisture without dehydration around the wound area. Thermal behavior and the protein release from the hydrogels were investigated using simultaneous thermal analysis and the Bradford test, respectively. Most importantly, an excellent ability to control the release of proteins from the hydrogel dressings was observed. The high antimicrobial activity of hydrogel was confirmed using Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Due to the presence of chitosan in the hydrogels, the lowest scavenging capacity-50 value (5.82 μgmL-1) and the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity (83 %) at a concentration 25 μgmL-1 for Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel were observed. Also, the hydrogels revealed excellent cell viability and proliferation. The wound healing process was studied using an in vivo model of the full-thickness wound. The wound closure was significantly higher on Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel compared to the control group, indicating the highest epidermis thickness, and enhancing the formation of new granulation tissue. Our findings demonstrated that Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel can provide an ideal wound dressing for accelerated wound healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a capable approach for the fabrication of bone tissue scaffolds. Nevertheless, a purely made scaffold such as polylactic acid (PLA) may suffer from shortcomings and be restricted due to its biological behavior. Gelatin, hydroxyapatite and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) have been revealed to be of potential to enhance the osteogenic effect. In this study, it was tried to improve the properties of 3D-printed PLA scaffolds by infilling them with gelatin-nano-hydroxyapatite (PLA/G-nHA) and subsequent coating with PRP. For comparison, bare PLA and PLA/G-nHA scaffolds were also fabricated. The printing accuracy, the scaffold structural characterizations, mechanical properties, degradability behavior, cell adhesion, mineralization, systemic effect of the scaffolds on the liver enzymes, osteocalcin level in blood serum and in vivo bone regeneration capability in rat critical-sized calvaria defect were evaluated. RESULTS High printing accuracy (printing error of < 11%) was obtained for all measured parameters including strut thickness, pore width, scaffold density and porosity%. The highest mean ultimate compression strength (UCS) was associated with PLA/G-nHA/PRP scaffolds, which was 10.95 MPa. A slow degradation rate was observed for all scaffolds. The PLA/G-nHA/PRP had slightly higher degradation rate, possibly due to PRP release, with burst release occurred at week 4. The MTT results showed that PLA/G-nHA/PRP provided the highest cell proliferation at all time points, and the serum biochemistry (ALT and AST level) results indicated no abnormal/toxic influence caused by scaffold biomaterials. Superior cell adhesion and mineralization were obtained for PLA/G-nHA/PRP. Furthermore, all the developed scaffolds showed bone repair capability. The PLA/G-nHA/PRP scaffolds could better support bone regeneration than bare PLA and PLA/G-nHA scaffolds. CONCLUSION The PLA/G-nHA/PRP scaffolds can be considered as potential for hard tissue repair.

Abstract
Continuous remodeling is not able to repair large bone defects. Bone tissue engineering is aimed to repair these defects by creating bone grafts. To do this, several technologies and biomaterials have been employed to fabricate an in vivo-like supportive matrix. Electrospinning is a versatile technique to fabricate porous matrices with interconnected pores and high surface area, replicating in vivo microenvironment. Electrospun scaffolds have been used in a large number of studies to provide a matrix for bone regeneration and osteogenic differentiation of stem cells such as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Electrospinning uses both natural and synthetic polymers, either alone or in combination, to fabricate scaffolds. Among them, synthetic polymers have had a great promise in bone regeneration and repair. They allow the fabrication of biocompatible and biodegradable scaffolds with high mechanical properties, suitable for bone engineering. Furthermore, several attempts have done to increase the osteogenic properties of these scaffolds. This paper reviewed the potential of synthetic electrospun scaffolds in osteogenic differentiation of iPSCs. In addition, the approaches to improve the osteogenic differentiation of these scaffolds are addressed.

Abstract
Background: Gellan gum is obtained from the bacterium Sphingomonas elodea and is a polysaccharide with carboxylic acid functional groups. The goal of this project was to investigate the osteoinductive effect of local administration of calcitonin through an injectable scaffold of gellan gum containing salmon calcitonin loaded in silsesquioxane nanoparticles, hydroxyapatite, and platelets rich plasma.Methods: The femur of rats was defected by creating a 2 × 5 mm2 hole using an electric drill. The defect was filled with an injectable hydrogel scaffold composed of gellan gum enriched with salmon calcitonin loaded in silsesquioxane nanoparticles, hydroxyapatite, platelets rich plasma and then the radiologic images were taken. Bone densitometry and the histologic studies were carried out by Hematoxylin & Eosin test. Biochemical analysis was done to measure the serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), calcium, calcitonin concentration.Results: Healing of the bone defects and bone densitometry in the treated group by calcitonin-loaded scaffold was significantly higher (p < 0.05) and bone formation occupied 75% of the defect that was greater than other groups. Serum ALP and calcium levels in the scaffold-loaded calcitonin group were more than the other groups (p < 0.05). The osteogenic marker genes also increased significantly (p < 0.05) with free calcitonin and the scaffold.Conclusions: Gellan gum-based scaffold loaded with calcitonin may be considered a promising local treatment to progress bone formation in repairing of skeletal injuries.

Abstract
The treatment of infected bone defects includes infection control and repair of the bone defect. The development of biomaterials with anti-infection and osteogenic ability provides a promising strategy for the repair of infected bone defects. Owing to its antibacterial properties, chitosan (an emerging natural polymer) has been widely studied in bone tissue engineering. Moreover, it has been shown that chitosan promotes the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast-related cells, and can serve as an ideal carrier for bone-promoting substances. In this review, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying the antibacterial effects of chitosan and its ability to promote bone repair are discussed. Furthermore, the properties of several kinds of functionalized chitosan are analyzed and compared with those of pure chitosan. The latest research on the combination of chitosan with different types of functionalized materials and biomolecules for the treatment of infected bone defects is also summarized. Finally, the current shortcomings of chitosan-based biomaterials for the treatment of infected bone defects and future research directions are discussed. This review provides a theoretical basis and advanced design strategies for the use of chitosan-based biomaterials in the treatment of infected bone defects.

Abstract
Electroactive scaffolds are relatively new tools in tissue engineering that open new avenue in repairing damaged soft and hard tissues. These scaffolds can induce electrical signaling while providing an ECM-like microenvironment. However, low biocompatibility and lack of biodegradability of piezoelectric and conductive polymers limits their clinical translation. In the current study, we have developed highly biocompatible, electroconductive nanofibrous scaffolds based on poly-L-lactic acid/polyaniline/carbon nanotube (PLLA/polyaniline/CNT). Physical and chemical properties of fabricated scaffolds were tested using various techniques. Biological characteristics of the scaffolds are also examined to check cellular attachment as well as differentiation of cultured (progenitor) cells. Scaffolds were optimized to direct osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Such scaffolds can offer new strategies for the regeneration of damaged/lost bone.

Abstract
Among the many polymers introduced for bone tissue engineering, natural polymers have more advantages due to their high biocompatibility and biodegradability, despite their low mechanical properties. Herein, gelatin nanofibers with and without magnesium oxide (MgO) and graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles were fabricated by electrospinning. The fabricated gelatin and gelatin/GO/MgO nanofibers were examined using scanning electron microscopy, protein adsorption, cell attachment and viability assays. The results revealed that biological behaviours of the gelatin nanofibers significantly improved while incorporated with MgO and GO nanoparticles. In the following, osteosupportive capacity of the fabricated scaffolds was investigated by Alizarin-red staining, alkaline phosphatase activity, and calcium content, and bone-related gene and protein assays. The results revealed that the highest osteogenic differentiation potential of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) was detected while these cells were cultured on the gelatin/GO/MgO nanofibers. However, these makers in the hiPSCs cultured on the gelatin nanofibers were also significantly increased in comparison with the cells cultured on the tissue culture plates as a control. In conclusion, the results revealed that predictable disadvantages in gelatin nanofibers can be greatly improved by the addition of MgO and GO nanoparticles, and the resulting composite scaffold could be a potential candidate for use in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of developed collagen (Co) hydrogel (CH), powder-mixed hydroxyapatite/collagen (HA/Co) hydrogel and in situ synthesized HA/Co (In/HA/Co) hydrogel with or without mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the regeneration of full-thickness critical size bone defect in the rabbit animal model. In the first step of this study, the scaffolds were synthesized and characterized using FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microcopy. In the second step or animal study, the radial bone defects were filled with the synthesized scaffolds with and without MSC and PRP. One hundred sixty one year-old New Zealand white male rabbits were randomly divided in 16 groups of 10 rabbits including control with bone defect without treatment, In/HA/Co, HA/Co, CH, PRP, MSC, CH + PRP, HA/Co, In/HA/Co + PRP, HA/Co + PRP, CH + MSC, In/HA/Co + MSC, HA/Co + MSC, CH + PRP + MSC, In/HA/Co + PRP + MSC, and HA/Co + PRP + MSC. The created defects were filled using the constructed scaffolds alone or seeded with MSCs, with and without PRP injection. The treatments were assessed using histopathological, immunohistochemical and rediographical analysis on days 14, 28, 42, 56 post-treatment. The plate-like HA particles were distributed homogeneously in the in situ HA/Co scaffold compared to the HA/Co scaffold and had a similar structure to bone with carbonated plate-like HA particles and nanofibrilated Co matrix. In situ HA/Co nanocomposite seeded with MSC and enriched by PRP can accelerate bone regeneration resulted from osteoblastic production of osteocalcin protein. Therefore, in situ HA/Co hydrogel seeded with MSC and PRP can be a new approach for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Here, we fabricated the platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)-loaded PCL/chitosan (PCL/CS-PRF) core-shell nanofibrous scaffold through a coaxial electrospinning method. Our goal was to evaluate the effect of CS-RPF in the core layer of the nanofibrous on the osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (HMSCs). The elastic modulus of PCL/CS-PRF core-shell scaffold (44 MPa) was about 1.5-fold of PCL/CS scaffold (25 MPa). The specific surface area of the scaffolds increased from 9.98 m2/g for PCL/CS scaffold to 16.66 m2/g for the PCL/CS-PRF core-shell nanofibrous scaffold. Moreover, the release rate of PRF from PCL/CS-PRF nanofibrous scaffold was measured to be 24.50% after 10 days which showed slow and sustained release of PRF from the nanofibrous. The formation of Ca-P on the surface of scaffold immersed in simulated body fluid solution indicated the suitable osteoconductivity of PCL/CS-PRF core-shell nanofibrous scaffold. Also, the value of ALP activity and calcium deposited on the surface of PCL/CS-PRF core-shell nanofibrous scaffold were 81.97 U/L and 40.33 μg/scaffold, respectively after 14 days, which confirmed the significantly higher amounts of ALP and calcium deposition on the scaffold containing PRF compared to PCL/CS scaffold. Due to higher hydrophilicity and porosity of PCL/CS-PRF core-shell nanofibrous scaffold compared to PCL/CS scaffold, a better bone cell growth on surface of PCL/CS-PRF scaffold was observed. The Alizarin red-positive area was significantly higher on PCL/CS-PRF scaffold compared to PCL/CS scaffold, indicating more calcium deposition and osteogenic differentiation of HMSCs in the presence of PRF. Our findings demonstrate that PCL/CS-PRF core-shell scaffolds can provide a strong construct with improved osteogenic for bone tissue engineering applications.

Fang J, Wang X, Jiang W, Zhu Y, Hu Y, Zhao Y, Song X, Zhao J, Zhang W, Peng J, Wang Y. Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy in the Treatment of Diseases Associated with Orthopedic Injuries. TISSUE ENGINEERING PART B-REVIEWS 2020; 26:571-585. [PMID: 32380937 DOI: 10.1089/ten.teb.2019.0292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous platelet concentrate prepared from the whole blood that is activated to release growth factors (GFs) and cytokines and has been shown to have the potential capacity to reduce inflammation and improve tissue anabolism for regeneration. The use of PRP provides a potential for repair due to its abundant GFs and cytokines, which are key in initiating and modulating regenerative microenvironments for soft and hard tissues. Among outpatients, orthopedic injuries are common and include bone defects, ligament injury, enthesopathy, musculoskeletal injury, peripheral nerve injury, chronic nonhealing wounds, articular cartilage lesions, and osteoarthritis, which are caused by trauma, sport-related or other types of trauma, or tumor resection. Surgical intervention is often required to treat these injuries. However, for numerous reasons regarding limited regeneration capacity and insufficient blood supply of the defect region, these treatments commonly result in unsatisfactory outcomes, and follow-up treatment is challenging. The aim of the present review is to explore future research in the field of PRP therapy in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries. Impact statement In recent years, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has become widely used in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries, and the results of numerous studies are encouraging. Due to diseases associated with orthopedic injuries being common in clinics, as a conservative treatment, more and more doctors and patients are more likely to accept PRP. Importantly, PRP is a biological product of autologous blood that is obtained by a centrifugation procedure to enrich platelets from whole blood, resulting in few complications, such as negligible immunogenicity from an autologous source, and it is also simple to produce through an efficient and cost-effective method in a sterile environment. However, the applicability, advantages, and disadvantages of PRP therapy have not yet been fully elucidated. The aim of the present review is to explore future research in the field of PRP therapy in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries, as well as to provide references for clinics.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) has gained particular attention in biomedical applications due to its biocompatibility, antibacterial feature, and biodegradability. Hence, many studies have focused on the manufacturing of CS films, scaffolds, particulate, and inks via different production methods. Nowadays, with the possibility of the precise adjustment of porosity size and shape, fiber size, suitable interconnectivity of pores, and creation of patient-specific constructs, 3D printing has overcome the limitations of many traditional manufacturing methods. Therefore, the fabrication of 3D printed CS scaffolds can lead to promising advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. A review of additive manufacturing types, CS-based printed constructs, their usages as biomaterials, advantages, and drawbacks can open doors to optimize CS-based constructions for biomedical applications. The latest technological issues and upcoming capabilities of 3D printing with CS-based biopolymers for different applications are also discussed. This review article will act as a roadmap aiming to investigate chitosan as a new feedstock concerning various 3D printing approaches which may be employed in biomedical fields. In fact, the combination of 3D printing and CS-based biopolymers is extremely appealing particularly with regard to certain clinical purposes. Complications of 3D printing coupled with the challenges associated with materials should be recognized to help make this method feasible for wider clinical requirements. This strategy is currently gaining substantial attention in terms of several industrial biomedical products. In this review, the key 3D printing approaches along with revealing historical background are initially presented, and ultimately, the applications of different 3D printing techniques for fabricating chitosan constructs will be discussed. The recognition of essential complications and technical problems related to numerous 3D printing techniques and CS-based biopolymer choices according to clinical requirements is crucial. A comprehensive investigation will be required to encounter those challenges and to completely understand the possibilities of 3D printing in the foreseeable future.

Abstract
The regeneration of bone fractures, resulting from trauma, osteoporosis or tumors, is a major problem in our super-aging society. Bone regeneration is one of the main topics of concern in regenerative medicine. In recent years, stem cells have been employed in regenerative medicine with interesting results due to their self-renewal and differentiation capacity. Moreover, stem cells are able to secrete bioactive molecules and regulate the behavior of other cells in different host tissues. Bone regeneration process may improve effectively and rapidly when stem cells are used. To this purpose, stem cells are often employed with biomaterials/scaffolds and growth factors to accelerate bone healing at the fracture site. Briefly, this review will describe bone structure and the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. In addition, the role of mesenchymal stem cells for bone repair/regrowth in the tissue engineering field and their recent progress in clinical applications will be discussed.
