J Appl Oral Sci 2024; 32:e20230449. [PMID: 38896639 PMCID: PMC11178352 DOI: 10.1590/1678-7757-2023-0449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the feasibility of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) in regenerative endodontics by comparing the effect of i-PRF and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on the biological behavior and angiogenesis of human stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAPs). METHODOLOGY i-PRF and PRF were obtained from venous blood by two different centrifugation methods, followed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was conducted to quantify the growth factors. SCAPs were cultured with different concentrations of i-PRF extract (i-PRFe) and PRF extract (PRFe), and the optimal concentrations were selected using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The cell proliferation and migration potentials of SCAPs were then observed using the CCK-8 and Transwell assays. Mineralization ability was detected by alizarin red staining (ARS), and angiogenesis ability was detected by tube formation assay. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was performed to evaluate the expression of genes related to mineralization and angiogenesis. The data were subjected to statistical analysis. RESULTS i-PRF and PRF showed a similar three-dimensional fibrin structure, while i-PRF released a higher concentration of growth factors than PRF ( P <.05). 1/4× i-PRFe and 1/4× PRFe were selected as the optimal concentrations. The cell proliferation rate of the i-PRFe group was higher than that of the PRFe group ( P <.05), while no statistical difference was observed between them in terms of cell mitigation ( P >.05). More importantly, our results showed that i-PRFe had a stronger effect on SCAPs than PRFe in facilitating mineralization and angiogenesis, with the consistent result of RT-qPCR ( P <.05). CONCLUSION This study revealed that i-PRF released a higher concentration of growth factors and was superior to PRF in promoting proliferation, mineralization and angiogenesis of SCAPs, which indicates that i-PRF could be a promising biological scaffold for application in pulp regeneration.

Abstract
To evaluate the osteogenic potential of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on human stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP) we isolated, characterized, and then cultured in an osteogenic medium cells with PRF and/or LLLT (660 nm, 6 J/m2-irradiation). Osteogenic differentiation was assessed by bone nodule formation and expression of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP-2 and BMP-4), whereas the molecular mechanisms were achieved by qRT-PCR and RNA-seq analysis. Statistical analysis was performed by ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests (p < 0.05* and p < 0.01**). Although PRF and LLLT increased bone nodule formation after 7 days and peaked at 21 days, the combination of PRF + LLLT led to the uppermost nodule formation. This was supported by increased levels of BMP-2 and -4 osteogenic proteins (p < 0.005). Furthermore, the PRF + LLLT relative expression of specific genes involved in osteogenesis, such as osteocalcin, was 2.4- (p = 0.03) and 28.3- (p = 0.001) fold higher compared to the PRF and LLLT groups, and osteopontin was 22.9- and 1.23-fold higher, respectively (p < 0.05), after 7 days of interaction. The transcriptomic profile revealed that the combination of PRF + LLLT induces MSX1, TGFB1, and SMAD1 expression, after 21 days of osteogenic differentiation conditions exposition. More studies are required to understand the complete cellular and molecular mechanisms of PRF plus LLLT on stem cells. Overall, we demonstrated for the first time that the combination of PRF and LLLT would be an excellent therapeutic tool that can be employed for dental, oral, and craniofacial repair and other tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), as an autologous blood preparation, has been receiving increasing attention in recent years and has been successfully applied in various clinical treatments for alveolar bone regeneration in the oral field. This review focuses on analyzing and summarizing the role and mechanism of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration. We first provide a brief introduction to PRF, then summarize the mechanisms by which PRF promotes alveolar bone regeneration from three aspects: osteogenesis mechanism, bone induction mechanism, and bone conduction mechanism, involving multiple signaling pathways such as Smad, ERK1/2, PI3K/Akt, and Wnt/β-catenin. We also explore the various roles of PRF as a scaffold, filler, and in combination with bone graft materials, detailing how PRF promotes alveolar bone regeneration and provides a wealth of experimental evidence. Finally, we summarize the current applications of PRF in various oral fields. The role of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration is becoming increasingly important, and its role and mechanism are receiving more and more research and understanding. This article will provide a reference of significant value for research in related fields. The exploration of the role and mechanism of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration may lead to the discovery of new therapeutic targets and the development of more effective and efficient treatment strategies.

The Effects of Platelet-Rich Fibrin in the Behavior of Mineralizing Cells Related to Bone Tissue Regeneration-A Scoping Review of In Vitro Evidence. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:503. [PMID: 37888168 PMCID: PMC10607127 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14100503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation blood concentrate that serves as an autologous approach for both soft and hard tissue regeneration. It provides a scaffold for cell interaction and promotes the local release of growth factors. PRF has been investigated as an alternative to bone tissue therapy, with the potential to expedite wound healing and bone regeneration, though the mechanisms involved are not yet fully understood. This review aims to explore the in vitro evidence of PRF's effects on the behavior of mineralizing cells related to bone tissue regeneration. A systematic electronic search was conducted up to August 2023, utilizing three databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. A total of 76 studies were selected, which presented in vitro evidence of PRF's usefulness, either alone or in conjunction with other biomaterials, for bone tissue treatment. PRF membranes' influence on the proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of bone cells is linked to the constant release of growth factors, resulting in changes in crucial markers of bone cell metabolism and behavior. This further reinforces their therapeutic potential in wound healing and bone regeneration. While there are some notable differences among the studies, the overall results suggest a positive effect of PRF on cell proliferation, differentiation, mineralization, and a reduction in inflammation. This points to its therapeutic potential in the field of regenerative medicine. Collectively, these findings may help enhance our understanding of how PRF impacts basic physiological processes in bone and mineralized tissue.

Growth Factors Released from Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin in the Presence of Calcium-Based Silicate Materials and Their Impact on the Viability and Migration of Stem Cells of Apical Papilla. Dent J (Basel) 2023; 11:220. [PMID: 37754340 PMCID: PMC10530054 DOI: 10.3390/dj11090220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) provides the scaffold and growth factors necessary for stem cells to proliferate and differentiate in successful regenerative endodontic procedures. This study investigates the release of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from A-PRF in cell culture media in the presence and absence of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Biodentine. Additionally, this research assesses the viability and migration of stem cells of the apical papilla (SCAP) in previously conditioned media. A-PRF obtained from 14 participants were incubated for 7 days in cell culture media alone or via layering with MTA or Biodentine discs and the release of selected growth factors in the media was evaluated using ELISA. The viability of SCAP grown in conditioned media was measured using the CCK8 assay, while SCAP migration was assessed via a transwell assay by counting migrated cells. The release of TGF-β1, PDGF, and VEGF was significantly higher in media with A-PRF alone than in the presence of either calcium-based silicate material (p < 0.05), which showed no difference from the no-A-PRF control (p < 0.05). None of the tested growth factors released in the A-PRF-conditioned media correlated with clot weight. A-PRF-conditioned media, both with and without calcium-based silicate materials, did not impact SCAP viability and migration (p > 0.05). This study shows that SCAP behavior is not impacted by the decrease in growth factor released in the presence of calcium-based silicate materials and that their role in REPs warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Diabetic patients are characterized by long wound healing time, and adipose stem cells (ADSCs) can secrete growth factors to promote angiogenesis and improve diabetic wound healing. In this research, we attempted to interrogate the impact of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on ADSCs in diabetic wound healing. ADSCs were harvested from human adipose tissues and identified through flow cytometry. After pretreatment with cultured medium supplemented with different concentrations of PRF (2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%), proliferation and differentiation capacity of ADSCs were assessed by CCK-8 assay, qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence (IF), respectively. Tube formation assay measured angiogenesis. Western blot analysis analyzed expression of endothelial markers and the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and serine/threonine kinase (Akt) pathways in PRF-induced ADSCs. The CCK-8 experiment indicated that PRF enhanced proliferation of ADSCs in dose-dependent manner, relative to normal control group. The expression of endothelial markers and the capacity of tube formation were significantly promoted by 7.5% PRF. The release of growth factors containing vascular endothelial grow factor (VEGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) from PRF was increased with the extension of detection time. When the receptors of VEGF or/and IGF-1 were neutralized, ADSCs differentiation into endothelial cells were obviously inhibited. Additionally, PRF stimulated ERK and Akt pathways, and the inhibitors of ERK and Akt attenuated PRF-induced differentiation of ADSCs into endothelial cells. In conclusion, PRF promoted endothelial cell differentiation and angiogenesis induced by ADSCs in diabetic wound healing, which appears to give guidance for treating patients.

Abstract
The aim of endodontic treatment in immature teeth is to disinfect and regenerate tissues in the apical region for the closure of the root. Stem cells from apical papilla (SCAP) by differentiating into odontogenic and osteogenic tissues create apical closure. Triple antibiotic pastes (TAP) disinfect the root canal without adversely affecting the SCAP. Differentiation of SCAP is promoted by platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). Hence, combining TAP and PRF could have a synergistic effect. Case description An 11-year-old girl, a 9-year-old boy, and a 13-year-old boy, symptomatic patients with open apex, are treated with TAP, PRF, and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as an apical barrier sequentially. There was the formation of a calcific barrier at the end of 12, 6, and 3 months, respectively. Conclusion Correct diagnosis and protocol of sequential disinfection, regeneration, and finally filling the canal with an apical barrier could yield better results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of blood and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), commonly used scaffolds in regenerative endodontic treatment (RET), on the hydration, microstructure, and color stability of three hydraulic calcium silicate cements (HCSCs), OrthoMTA, RetroMTA, and TotalFill-BC-RRM. MATERIALS AND METHODS The HCSCs were prepared and placed into polyethylene molds and transferred to Eppendorf tubes containing PRF, blood, or PBS and then incubated for 1 week or 1 month. The microstructure and hydration of the cements were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The chromatic alteration of materials was also measured using a spectrophotometer. The data for color stability were analyzed using 2-way analysis of variance and Tukey post hoc tests. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the color stability of cements exposed to PBS (p > 0.05). The chromatic alteration of cements exposed to blood was significantly greater than those exposed to PRF and PBS (p < 0.001). In the presence of blood and PRF, the color change of OrthoMTA was significantly greater than that of RetroMTA and TotalFill (p < 0.05), with no significant difference between RetroMTA and TotalFill (p > 0.05). XRD analysis of all cements revealed a calcium hydroxide peak after 1-week and 1-month exposure to the media; however, OrthoMTA and TotalFill exposed to blood and PRF for 1 month showed weaker calcium hydroxide peaks. SEM images revealed cements exposed to PBS had a different surface microstructure compared to those exposed to blood and PRF. Furthermore, the surface microstructure of HCSCs was influenced by the type of cement radiopacifier (bismuth oxide or zirconium oxide). EDS analysis of the elemental composition in all groups displayed peaks of Ca, O, C, Si, P, and Al. CONCLUSIONS Color stability, hydration behavior, and microstructure of HCSCs were affected by exposure to PRF and blood and the type of cement radiopacifier. CLINICAL RELEVANCE As some important physicochemical properties of HCSCs could be influenced by the environmental conditions and the type of radiopacifier, alternatives to blood clot and HCSCs containing substitutes for bismuth oxide might be more suitable in RETs.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontic procedures have been rapidly evolving over the past two decades and are employed extensively in clinical endodontics. These procedures have been perceived as valuable adjuvants to conventional strategies in the treatment of necrotic immature permanent teeth that were deemed to have poor prognosis. As a component biological triad of tissue engineering (i.e., stem cells, growth factors and scaffolds), biomaterial scaffolds have demonstrated clinical potential as an armamentarium in regenerative endodontic procedures and achieved remarkable advancements. The aim of the present review is to provide a broad overview of biomaterials employed for scaffolding in regenerative endodontics. The favorable properties and limitations of biomaterials organized in naturally derived, host-derived and synthetic material categories were discussed. Preclinical and clinical studies published over the past five years on the performance of biomaterial scaffolds, as well as current challenges and future perspectives for the application of biomaterials for scaffolding and clinical evaluation of biomaterial scaffolds in regenerative endodontic procedures were addressed in depth. Overview of biomaterials for scaffolding in regenerative endodontics are presented. Findings of preclinical and clinical studies on the performance of biomaterial scaffolds are summarized. Challenges and future prospects in biomaterial scaffolds are discussed.

Abstract
Background:
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are the most preferred cell type, based on their phenotypic characteristics, plasticity, and favorable immunological properties for applications in soft-tissue augmentation. Hence, the present in vitro study was aimed to evaluate the adipogenic differentiation potential of human ADSCs upon culturing individually with collagen gel and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF).
Materials and methods:
The collected lipoaspirate was used for establishing ADSCs using enzymatic digestion method. Then, the cells were analyzed for their morphology, viability, proliferation rate, population doubling time (PDT), colony-forming ability, cell surface markers expression, and osteogenic differentiation as biological properties. Further, ADSCs were evaluated for their adipogenicity using induction media alone, and by culturing with collagen gel and PRF individually for prospective tissue augmentation.
Results:
ADSCs were successfully established in vitro and exhibited a fibroblast-like morphology throughout the culture period. Cells had higher viability, proliferation potential and showed their ability to form colonies. The positive expression of cell surface markers and osteogenic ability confirmed the potency of ADSCs. The ADSCs cultured on collagen gel and PRF, individually, showed higher number of differentiated adipocytes than ADSCs grown with adipogenic induction medium alone.
Conclusion:
The extent of lipid accumulation by ADSCs was slightly higher when cultured on collagen gel than on PRF. Additional experiments are required to confirm better suitability of scaffold materials for soft-tissue regeneration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this nonrandomized, multicenter controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the impact of leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (LPRF) on regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) of immature permanent teeth in terms of periapical bone healing (PBH) and further root development (RD). METHODS Healthy patients between 6-25 years with an inflamed or necrotic immature permanent tooth were included and divided between the test (= REP + LPRF) and control (= REP-LPRF) group depending on their compliance and the clinical setting (university hospital or private practice). After receiving REP ± LPRF, the patients were recalled after 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months. At each recall session, the teeth were clinically and radiographically (by means of a periapical radiograph [PR]) evaluated. A cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging was taken preoperatively and 2 and 3 years postoperatively. PBH and RD were quantitatively and qualitatively assessed. RESULTS Twenty-nine teeth with a necrotic pulp were included, from which 23 (9 test and 14 control) were analyzed. Three teeth in the test group had a flare-up reaction in the first year after REP. Except for 2 no shows, all the analyzed teeth survived up to 3 years after REP, and, in case of failure, apexification preserved them. Complete PBH was obtained in 91.3% and 87% of the cases based on PR qualitative and quantitative evaluation, respectively, with no significant difference between the groups with respect to the baseline. The PR quantitative change in RD at the last recall session with respect to the baseline was not significant (all P values > .05) in both groups. The qualitative assessment of the type of REP root healing was nonuniform. In the test group, 55.6% of the teeth presented no RD and no apical closure. Only 50% of the 14 teeth assessed with CBCT imaging presented complete PBH. Regarding volumetric measurements on RD 3 years after REP for the change with respect to the baseline in root hard tissue volume, mean root hard tissue thickness, and apical area, the control group performed significantly in favor of RD than the test group (P = .03, .003, and 0.05 respectively). For the volumetric change 3 years after REP with respect to the baseline in root length and maximum root hard tissue thickness, no significant difference (P = .72 and .4, respectively) was found between the groups. The correlation between the PR and CBCT variables assessing RD was weak (root lengthening) to very weak (root thickening). CONCLUSIONS REP-LPRF seems to be a viable treatment option to obtain PBH and aid further RD of necrotic immature permanent teeth. Caution is needed when evaluating REP with PR.
