Cheng L, Wang K, Chang S, Tan Y, He B. Effects of platelet-rich plasma combined with isometric quadriceps contraction on cartilage in a rat model of knee osteoarthritis. Regen Ther 2024; 26:469-477. [PMID: 39070125 PMCID: PMC11283084 DOI: 10.1016/j.reth.2024.06.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Intra-articular injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or isometric contraction of quadriceps (ICQ) has shown positive effects in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). However, the synergistic effect of combining PRP and ICQ intervention (joint intervention) on cartilage repair has not been validated. Thus, this study aimed to explore the reparative effects of joint intervention on cartilage in a KOA rat model. Methods Fifty-four 2-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control group (CG, n = 6) and model group (injected with sodium iodoacetate, n = 48). After 1 week, six rats from the model group were randomly selected for validation. The remaining 42 rats were further divided into seven groups: PRP group (PRPG), ICQ group (ICQG), joint intervention group (JIG), normal saline group (NSG), acupuncture group (AG), normal saline and acupuncture group (NSAG) and model blank group (MBG). The intervention lasted for 4 weeks, with PRPG and JIG receiving PRP injections (twice) and ICQG and JIG undergoing ICQ (five times per week, 15 min each session). Results Histological staining with haematoxylin and eosin as well as transmission electron microscopy revealed severe cartilage damage in MBG, AG, NSAG and NSG, followed by PRPG and ICQG. JIG exhibited a more intact cartilage structure. Compared with JIG, the Mankin scores increased remarkably in PRPG, ICQG, AG, NSAG and NSG (P < 0.01). Relative mRNA expression levels showed the upregulation of IL-1β in ICQG, NSAG and NSG compared with JIG (P < 0.05) and the upregulation of IL-6, IL-18 and MMP-13 in AG and NSAG (P < 0.05). Compared with PRPG, IL-1β and IL-6 were upregulated in ICQG, AG, NSAG and NSG (P < 0.05). In addition, IL-18 was upregulated in AG (P < 0.01), and IL-18, MMP-13 and TNF-α were upregulated in NSAG (P < 0.05). Compared with ICQG, IL-1β, IL-18, MMP-13 and TNF-α were upregulated in NSAG (P < 0.05), and IL-1β and IL-18 were upregulated in AG (P < 0.05). Conclusion The combination of PRP and ICQ can alleviate inflammatory responses in cartilage, promote chondrocyte regeneration and facilitate matrix tissue repair. Compared with single interventions, a synergistic effect is observed.

Liquid platelet-rich fibrin produced via horizontal centrifugation decreases the inflammatory response and promotes chondrocyte regeneration in vitro. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1301430. [PMID: 38144541 PMCID: PMC10740190 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1301430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: Recently, liquid platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a rich source of concentrated platelets and growth factors, has emerged as a promising agent for stimulating tissue regeneration. However, its specific efficacy in chondrocyte proliferation and cartilage regeneration remains underexplored. To address this question, we investigated liquid PRF obtained through horizontal centrifugation and compared its effects with hyaluronic acid (HA), a high molecular weight glucosamine supplement widely used in clinical practice to safeguard against chondral damage. Materials and Methods: Liquid PRF, produced using horizontal centrifugation (liquid H-PRF) at 500 g for 8 min, served as our experimental agent. We conducted cell viability and proliferation assays using PRF-conditioned medium. We assessed the chondrocyte phenotype of ATDC5 cells through toluidine blue and alcian blue staining, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining. Furthermore, we examined the expression of genes involved in inflammation through RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Results: Liquid H-PRF exerted notable effects on chondrocytes, influencing proliferation, inflammatory responses, and chondrogenic differentiation. The H-PRF group displayed significantly higher expression of chondrogenic markers, including Col2a1, compared to HA-treated cells, whereas aggrecan expression was significantly higher in the HA group. PRF also demonstrated the ability to reduce inflammatory levels in chondrogenic ATDC5 cells, and this effect was further enhanced when PRF from the buffy coat zone was added. In comparison, chondrocytes cultured in the HA group produced significantly fewer inflammatory factors than those in the PRF group, as confirmed qualitatively by Western blot analysis. Conclusion: Liquid H-PRF emerged as a potent stimulator for chondrogenesis and a regulator of the inflammatory response, achieving levels similar to HA. Moreover, liquid H-PRF exhibited strong potential for enhancing the production of cartilage extracellular matrix and promoting chondrogenic regeneration with notably increased Col2a1 levels. Future research should encompass animal studies and human trials to further evaluate the comparative effectiveness of liquid PRF versus HA, potentially as an alternative or complementary strategy for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Tissue engineering has gained prominence during the past decade since it offers a key solution to defects associated with the tissue regeneration. The limited healing potential of the cartilage tissue damage has significant clinical implications. Herein, dysprosium (Dy3+) impregnated polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels have been developed to enhance the therapeutic efficacy, enabling simultaneous diagnostic imaging and antibacterial drug delivery for potential applications in articular cartilage. Based on the favorable imaging features, Dy3+ impregnated PVA hydrogels with enhanced stability were formed through successive steps of repeated cycles of freezing at - 30 °C for 21 h, thawing at 25 °C for 4 h and lyophilization. The tensile and compression tests of the hydrogels respectively determined a maximum of 3.88 and 1.58 MPa, which reflected better compatibility towards cartilage. The hydrogels fetched a sustained drug release for a period of 12 h with an associated swelling ratio of 80%. The potential of the resultant hydrogels in image diagnosis has been deliberated through their blue and yellow emissions in the visible region. Further, the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of the hydrogels respectively accomplished a maximum of 343 Hounsfiled units (HU) and relaxivity of 7.25 mM-1s-1. The cytocompatibility of the hydrogels is also determined through in vitro tests performed in Murine pro B cell line (BA/F3) and human Megakaryocyte cell line (Mo7e) cell lines.

Mol Biol Rep 2023; 50:1595-1602.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) causes cartilage degeneration, bone cavitation, and fibrosis of the TMJ. However, the mechanisms underlying the fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS)-mediated inflammatory activity in TMJ-OA remain unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that the P2Y1, P2Y12, and P2Y13 purinergic receptor agonist adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) significantly induces monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1)/ C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) expression in the FLS1 synovial cell line. In contrast, the uracil nucleotide UTP, which is a P2Y2 and P2Y4 agonist, has no significant effect on MCP-1/CCL2 production in FLS1 cells. In addition, the P2Y13 antagonist MRS 2211 considerably decreases the expression of ADP-induced MCP-1/CCL2, whereas ADP stimulation enhances extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation. Moreover, it was found that the mitogen-activated protein kinase/ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitor U0126 reduces ADP-induced MCP-1/CCL2 expression. CONCLUSION ADP enhances MCP-1/CCL2 expression in TMJ FLSs via P2Y13 receptors in an MEK/ERK-dependent manner, thus resulting in inflammatory cell infiltration in the TMJ. Collectively, the findings of this study contribute to a partial clarification of the signaling pathway underlying the development of inflammation in TMJ-OA and can help identify potential therapeutic targets for suppressing ADP-mediated purinergic signaling in this disease.

Abstract
Background. With the aging of the social population, Osteoarthritis (OA) has already become a vital health and economic problem globally. Shujin Dingtong recipe (SJDTR) is an effective formula to treat OA in China. Although studies have shown that SJDTR can significantly alleviate OA symptoms, its mechanism still remains unclear. Purpose. This study is aimed at investigating the potential mechanism of SJDTR for the treatment of OA based on network pharmacology and molecular docking. Methods. Main ingredients of SJDTR were retrieved from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology (TCMSP) database. OA disease targets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The overlapped targets and signaling pathways were explored using Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network, Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). Following this, the core targets were employed to dock with corresponding components via molecular docking in order to further explore the mechanism of SJDTR in the treatment of OA. Results. From network pharmacology, we found 100 active components of SJDTR, 31 drug and OA-related targets, 1161 GO items, and 91 signaling pathways. Based on the analysis with PPI network and molecular docking, TP53, CCNB1, and MMP-2 were selected for the core targets of SJDTR against OA. Molecular docking demonstrated that Quercetin, Baicalein, and Luteolin, had good binding with the TP53, CCNB1, and MMP-2 protein, respectively. Conclusion. To conclude, our study suggested the main ingredients of SJDTR might alleviate the progression of OA through multiple targets and pathways. Additionally, network pharmacology and molecular docking, as new approaches, were adopted for systematically exploring the potential mechanism of SJDTR for the treatment of OA.

Abstract
Radiofrequency energy is a common treatment modality for chronic pain. While there are different forms of radiofrequency-based therapeutics, the common concept is the generation of an electromagnetic field in the applied area, that can result in neuromodulation (pulsed radiofrequency—PRF) or ablation. Our specific focus relates to PRF due to the possibility of modulation that is in accordance with the mechanisms of action of orthobiologics. The proposed mechanism of action of PRF pertaining to pain relief relies on a decrease in pro-inflammatory cytokines, an increase in cytosolic calcium concentration, a general effect on the immune system, and a reduction in the formation of free radical molecules. The primary known properties of orthobiologics constitute the release of growth factors, a stimulus for endogenous repair, analgesia, and improvement of the function of the injured area. In this review, we described the mechanism of action of both treatments and pertinent scientific references to the use of the combination of PRF and orthobiologics. Our hypothesis is a synergic effect with the combination of both techniques which could benefit patients and improve the life quality.

Abstract
Articular cartilage has limited self-regeneration ability for lacking of blood vessels, nerves, and lymph that makes it a great challenge to repair defects of the tissue and restore motor functions of the injured or aging population. Platelet derivatives, such as platelet-rich plasma, have been proved effective, safe, and economical in musculoskeletal diseases for their autologous origin and rich in growth factors. The combination of platelet derivatives with biomaterials provides both mechanical support and localized sustained release of bioactive molecules in cartilage tissue engineering and low-cost efficient approaches of potential treatment. In this review, we first provide an overview of platelet derivatives and their application in clinical and experimental therapies, and then we further discuss the techniques of the addition of platelet derivatives and their influences on scaffold properties. Advances in cartilage tissue engineering with platelet derivatives as signal factors and structural components are also introduced before prospects and concerns in this research field. In short, platelet derivatives have broad application prospects as an economical and effective enhancement for tissue engineering–based articular cartilage repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Synovial mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs) have been discussed as promising tools for protecting chondrocytes from loss and inhibiting osteoarthritis (OA). This work infocuses on the function of SMSC-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in chondrocytes during OA and the molecular mechanism. METHODS EVs were extracted from SMSCs and identified. Chondrocytes were treated with interleukin (IL)-1β to induce an OA-like condition in vitro and then treated with EVs. The proliferation, apoptosis, migration, extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation and inflammation in chondrocytes were examined. Key microRNAs (miRNAs) carried by EVs were screened using a microarray analysis, and the downstream molecules involved were explored using bioinformatic analysis. Rescue experiments were performed to validate the involvements of these molecules in EV-mediated events. RESULTS EVs restored proliferation and migration while reduced apoptosis, ECM degradation and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in chondrocytes induced by IL-1β. miR-130b-3p was significantly elevated in chondrocytes after EVs treatment. Knockdown of miR-130b-3p blocked the protective roles of EVs against IL-1β-induced damage to chondrocytes. miR-130b-3p was found to target LDL receptor related protein 12 (LRP12) mRNA in chondrocytes. Overexpression of LRP12 counteracted the effects of EVs as well and activated the AKT/β-catenin signaling pathway. CONCLUSION This study provided evidence that EVs alleviate chondrocyte damage during OA through miR-130b-3p-mediated inhibition of the LRP12/AKT/β-catenin axis. This study may offer novel thoughts into the protection of chondrocytes and the management of OA.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are a public health problem worldwide, especially those related to diabetes. Besides being an enormous burden to patients, it challenges wound care professionals and causes a great financial cost to health system. Considering the absence of effective treatments for chronic wounds, our aim was to better understand the pathophysiology of tissue repair in diabetes in order to find alternative strategies to accelerate wound healing. Nucleotides have been described as extracellular signaling molecules in different inflammatory processes, including tissue repair. Adenosine-5'-diphosphate (ADP) plays important roles in vascular and cellular response and is immediately released after tissue injury, mainly from platelets. However, despite the well described effect on platelet aggregation during inflammation and injury, little is known about the role of ADP on the multiple steps of tissue repair, particularly in skin wounds. Therefore, we used the full-thickness excisional wound model to evaluate the effect of local ADP application in wounds of diabetic mice. ADP accelerated cutaneous wound healing, improved new tissue formation, and increased both collagen deposition and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) production in the wound. These effects were mediated by P2Y12 receptor activation since they were inhibited by Clopidogrel (Clop) treatment, a P2Y12 receptor antagonist. Furthermore, P2Y1 receptor antagonist also blocked ADP-induced wound closure until day 7, suggesting its involvement early in repair process. Interestingly, ADP treatment increased the expression of P2Y12 and P2Y1 receptors in the wound. In parallel, ADP reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels, while increased IL-13 levels in the skin. Also, ADP increased the counts of neutrophils, eosinophils, mast cells, and gamma delta (γδ) T cells (Vγ4+ and Vγ5+ cells subtypes of γδ+ T cells), although reduced regulatory T (Tregs) cells in the lesion. In accordance, ADP increased fibroblast proliferation and migration, myofibroblast differentiation, and keratinocyte proliferation. In conclusion, we provide strong evidence that ADP acts as a pro-resolution mediator in diabetes-associated skin wounds and is a promising intervention target for this worldwide problem.

Abstract
Articular cartilage has a highly organized structure, responsible for supporting tremendous mechanical loads. How to repair defected articular cartilage has become a great challenge as the avascular nature of cartilage limits its regenerative ability. Aiming to facilitate chondrogenic differentiation and cartilage regeneration, we recently explored a novel combination therapy using soluble poly-l-lysine/Kartogenin (L-K) nanoparticles and a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) PLGA/methacrylated hyaluronic acid (PLHA) complex scaffold. The potential use for joint cartilage reconstruction was investigated through L-K nanoparticles stimulating adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) on PLHA scaffolding, which ultimately differentiated into cartilage in vivo. In this study, on one hand, an effective method was established for obtaining uniform L-K nanoparticles by self-assembly. They were further proved to be biocompatible to ADSCs via cytotoxicity assays in vitro and to accelerate ADSCs secreting type 2 collagen in a dose-dependent manner by immunofluorescence. On the other hand, the porous PLHA scaffold was manufactured by the combination of coprecipitation and ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking. Nanoindentation technology-verified PLHA had an appropriate stiffness close to actual cartilage tissue. Additional microscopic observation confirmed that the PLHA platform supported proliferation and chondrogenesis for ADSCs in vitro. In the presence of ADSCs, a 12-week osteochondral defect regeneration by the combination therapy showed that smooth and intact cartilage tissue successfully regenerated. Furthermore, the results of combination therapy were superior to those of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) only, KGN, or KGN/PLHA treatment. The results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histological assessment indicated that the renascent tissue gradually regenerated while the PLHA scaffold degraded. In conclusion, we have developed a novel multidimensional combination therapy of cartilage defect repair that facilitated cartilage regeneration. This strategy has a great clinical translational potential for articular cartilage repair in the near future.

Chondroprotective Effects of Combination Therapy of Acupotomy and Human Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Knee Osteoarthritis Rabbits via the GSK3β-Cyclin D1-CDK4/CDK6 Signaling Pathway. Aging Dis 2020; 11:1116-1132. [PMID: 33014527 PMCID: PMC7505269 DOI: 10.14336/ad.2019.1104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2019] [Accepted: 11/04/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are highly chondrogenic and can be used to treat knee osteoarthritis (KOA) by alleviating cartilage defects. Acupotomy, a biomechanical therapy guided by traditional Chinese medicine theory, alleviates cartilage degradation and is widely used in the clinic to treat KOA by correcting abnormal mechanics. However, whether combining acupotomy with ASCs will reverse cartilage degeneration by promoting chondrocyte proliferation in KOA rabbits is unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of combination therapy of acupotomy and ASCs on chondrocyte proliferation and to determine the underlying mechanism in rabbits with KOA induced by knee joint immobilization for 6 weeks. After KOA modeling, five groups of rabbits (acupotomy, ASCs, acupotomy + ASCs, model and control groups) received the indicated intervention for 4 weeks. The combination therapy significantly restored the KOA-induced decrease in passive range of motion (PROM) in the knee joint and reduced the elevated serum level of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), a marker for cartilage degeneration. Furthermore, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that the combination therapy inhibited cartilage injury. The combination therapy also significantly blocked increases in the mRNA and protein expression of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β) and decreases in the mRNA and protein expression of cyclin D1/CDK4 and cyclin D1/CDK6 in cartilage. These findings indicated that the combination therapy mitigated knee joint immobility, promoted chondrocyte proliferation and alleviated cartilage degeneration in KOA rabbits, and these effects may be mediated by specifically regulating the GSK3β-cyclin D1-CDK4/CDK6 pathway.

Abstract
The migration of chondrocytes from healthy to injured tissues is one of the most important challenges during cartilage repair. Additionally, maintenance of the chondrogenic phenotype remains another limitation, especially during monolayer culture in vitro. Using both the differentiated and undifferentiated chondrogenic ATDC5 cell line, we showed that extracellular nucleotides are able to increase the migration rate of chondrocytes without affecting their chondrogenic phenotype. We checked the potency of natural nucleotides (ATP, ADP, UTP, and UDP) as well as their stable phosphorothioate analogs, containing a sulfur atom in the place of one nonbridging oxygen atom in a phosphate group. We also detected P2y1, P2y2, P2y4, P2y6, P2y12, P2y13, and P2y14 mRNA transcripts for nucleotide receptors, demonstrating that P2y1 and P2y13 are highly upregulated in differentiated ATDC5 cells. We showed that ADPβS, UDPβS, and ADP are the best stimulators of migration of differentiated chondrocytes. Additionally, ADP and ADPβS positively affected the expression of type II collagen, a structural component of the cartilage matrix.

Abstract
Background To better understand the process of osteoarthritic degenerative meniscal lesions (DMLs) formation, this study analyzed the dataset GSE52042 using bioinformatics methods to identify the pivotal genes and pathways related to osteoarthritic DMLs. Material/Methods The GSE52042 dataset, comprising diseased meniscus samples and healthier meniscus samples, was downloaded and the differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) were extracted. The reactome pathways assessment and functional analysis were performed using the “ClusterProfiler” package and “ReactomePA” package of Bioconductor. The protein–protein interaction network was constructed, followed by the extraction of hub genes and modules. Results A set of 154 common DEGs, including 64 upregulated DEGs and 90 downregulated DEGs, were obtained. GO analysis suggested that the DEGs primarily participated in positive regulation of the mitotic cell cycle and extracellular matrix organization. Reactome pathway analysis showed that the DEGs were predominantly enriched in TP53, which regulates transcription of genes involved in G2 cell cycle arrest and extracellular matrix organization. The top 10 hub genes were TYMS, AURKA, CENPN, NUSAP1, CENPM, TPX2, CDK1, UBE2C, BIRC5, and CCNB1. The genes in the 2 modules were primarily associated with M Phase and keratan sulfate degradation. Conclusions A series of pivotal genes and reactome pathways were identified elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved in the formation of osteoarthritic DMLs and to discover potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, many authors have reported the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on rotator cuff repair. Whether PRP treatment during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair improves tendon healing rates or restores full function remains unknown. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the clinical improvement and radiological outcomes of PRP treatment in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched. The study included only level 1 or 2 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the injection of platelet-rich plasma or platelet-rich fibrin matrix. The methodological quality of the trials was assessed using the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions, 5.3. Continuous variables were analysed using the weighted mean difference, and categorical variables were assessed using relative risks. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The meta-analysis revealed a lower retear rate following PRP treatment than that following the control method (mean difference, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.03 to 1.18; P = 0.004). Constant shoulder scores improved with PRP (mean difference, 2.31; 95% CI, 1.02 to 3.61; P = 0.0005). PRP treatment also resulted in higher UCLA scores (mean difference, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.27 to 1.69; P = 0.007), and simple shoulder test scores were improved (mean difference, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.11 to 0.75; P = 0.008). Finally, lower visual analogue scale scores were observed with PRP augmentation (mean difference, - 0.35; 95% CI, - 0.57 to - 0.13; P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS The current systematic review and meta-analysis reveals that PRP treatment with arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears decreases the retear rate and improves the clinical outcomes.

The Role of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Cartilage Pathology: An Updated Systematic Review of the Basic Science Evidence. Arthroscopy 2019; 35:961-976.e3.

Abstract
PURPOSE To review the basic science studies on platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for cartilage and determine whether there has been an improvement in methodology and outcome reporting that would allow for a more meaningful analysis regarding the mechanism of action and efficacy of PRP for cartilage pathology. METHODS The PubMed/MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were screened in May 2017 with publication dates of January 2011 through May 2017 using the following key words: "platelet-rich plasma OR PRP OR autologous conditioned plasma (ACP) OR ACP AND cartilage OR chondrocytes OR chondrogenesis OR osteoarthritis OR arthritis." Two authors independently performed the search, determined study inclusion, and extracted data. Data extracted included cytology/description of PRP, study design, and results. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies (11 in vitro, 13 in vivo, 3 in vitro and in vivo) met the inclusion criteria and were included in the study. All of the studies (100%) reported the method by which PRP was prepared. Two studies reported basic cytologic analysis of PRP, including platelet, white blood cell, and red blood cell counts (6.7%). Nine studies reported both platelet count and white blood cell count (30.0%). Twelve studies reported platelet count alone (40.0%). Nine studies (30.0%) made no mention at all as to the composition of the PRP used. PRP was shown to increase cell viability, cell proliferation, cell migration, and differentiation. Several studies demonstrated increased proteoglycan and type II collagen content. PRP decreased inflammation in 75.0% of the in vitro studies reporting data and resulted in improved histologic quality of the cartilage tissue in 75.0% of the in vivo studies reporting data. CONCLUSIONS Although the number of investigations on PRP for cartilage pathology has more than doubled since 2012, the quality of the literature remains limited by poor methodology and outcome reporting. A majority of basic science studies suggest that PRP has beneficial effects on cartilage pathology; however, the inability to compare across studies owing to a lack of standardization of study methodology, including characterizing the contents of PRP, remains a significant limitation. Future basic science and clinical studies must at a minimum report the contents of PRP to better understand the clinical role of PRP for cartilage pathology. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Establishing proof of concept for PRP to treat cartilage pathology is important so that high-quality clinical studies with appropriate indications can be performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood product that contains a high concentration of several growth factors. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB is a potential mitogen for human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs). PRP stimulates proliferation of hASCs; however, the signaling pathways activated by PRP remain unclear. METHODS hASCs were cultured with or without PRP or PDGF-BB, and proliferation was assessed. hASCs were also treated with PRP or PDGF-BB with or without imatinib, which is a PDGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, or sorafenib, which is a multikinase inhibitor. Inhibition of cell proliferation was examined using anti-PDGF antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), by cell counting. We assessed the effects of inhibitors of various protein kinases such as ERK1/2, JNK, p38, and Akt on the proliferation of hASCs. RESULTS The proliferation was remarkably promoted in cells treated with either 1% PRP or 10 ng/ml PDGF-BB, and both imatinib and sorafenib inhibited this proliferation. Anti-PDGF antibody (0.5 and 2 μg/ml) significantly decreased the proliferation of hASCs compared with control. PRP-mediated hASC proliferation was blocked by inhibitors of ERK1/2, Akt, and JNK, but not by an inhibitor of p38. CONCLUSIONS PRP promotes hASC proliferation, and PDGF-BB in PRP plays a major role in inducing the proliferation of hASCs. PRP promotes hASC proliferation via ERK1/2, PI3K/Akt, and JNK signaling pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease leading to pain and disability for which no curative treatment exists. A promising biological treatment for OA is intra-articular administration of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). PRP injections in OA joints can relieve pain, although the exact working mechanism is unclear. PURPOSE To examine the effects of PRP releasate (PRPr) on pain, cartilage damage, and synovial inflammation in a mouse OA model. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS OA was induced unilaterally in the knees of male mice (n = 36) by 2 intra-articular injections of collagenase at days -7 and -5. At day 0, pain was measured by registering weight distribution on the hindlimbs, after which mice were randomly divided into 2 groups. Mice received 3 intra-articular injections of PRP or saline in the affected knee. Seven mice per group were euthanized at day 5 for assessment of early synovial inflammation and cartilage damage. Pain in the remaining mice was registered for a total of 3 weeks. These mice were euthanized at day 21 for assessment of cartilage damage and synovial inflammation on histological evaluation. Antibodies against iNOS, CD163, and CD206 were used to identify different subtypes of macrophages in the synovial membrane. RESULTS Mice in the PRPr group increased the distribution of weight on the affected joint in 2 consecutive weeks after the start of the treatment ( P < .05), whereas mice in the saline group did not. At day 21, PRPr-injected knees had a thinner synovial membrane ( P < .05) and a trend toward less cartilage damage in the lateral joint compartment ( P = .053) than saline-injected knees. OA knees treated with saline showed less anti-inflammatory (CD206+ and CD163+) cells at day 5 than healthy knees, an observation that was not made in the PRPr-treated group. A higher level of pain at day 7 was associated with a thicker synovial membrane at day 21. The presence of CD206+ cells was negatively associated with synovial membrane thickness. CONCLUSION In a murine OA model, multiple PRPr injections reduced pain and synovial thickness, possibly through modulation of macrophage subtypes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE PRPr injections in early OA or shortly after joint trauma can reduce pain and synovial inflammation and may inhibit OA development in patients.

Abstract
Purinergic signalling, i.e., the role of nucleotides as extracellular signalling molecules, was proposed in 1972. However, this concept was not well accepted until the early 1990's when receptor subtypes for purines and pyrimidines were cloned and characterised, which includes four subtypes of the P1 (adenosine) receptor, seven subtypes of P2X ion channel receptors and 8 subtypes of the P2Y G protein-coupled receptor. Early studies were largely concerned with the physiology, pharmacology and biochemistry of purinergic signalling. More recently, the focus has been on the pathophysiology and therapeutic potential. There was early recognition of the use of P1 receptor agonists for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia and A2A receptor antagonists are promising for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Clopidogrel, a P2Y12 antagonist, is widely used for the treatment of thrombosis and stroke, blocking P2Y12 receptor-mediated platelet aggregation. Diquafosol, a long acting P2Y2 receptor agonist, is being used for the treatment of dry eye. P2X3 receptor antagonists have been developed that are orally bioavailable and stable in vivo and are currently in clinical trials for the treatment of chronic cough, bladder incontinence, visceral pain and hypertension. Antagonists to P2X7 receptors are being investigated for the treatment of inflammatory disorders, including neurodegenerative diseases. Other investigations are in progress for the use of purinergic agents for the treatment of osteoporosis, myocardial infarction, irritable bowel syndrome, epilepsy, atherosclerosis, depression, autism, diabetes, and cancer.

Abstract
RATIONALE Autologous stem cell therapy using human c-Kit+ cardiac progenitor cells (hCPCs) is a promising therapeutic approach for treatment of heart failure (HF). However, hCPCs derived from aged patients with HF with genetic predispositions and comorbidities of chronic diseases exhibit poor proliferative and migratory capabilities, which impair overall reparative potential for injured myocardium. Therefore, empowering functionally compromised hCPCs with proregenerative molecules ex vivo is crucial for improving the therapeutic outcome in patients with HF. OBJECTIVE To improve hCPC proliferation and migration responses that are critical for regeneration by targeting proregenerative P2Y2 nucleotide receptor (P2Y2R) activated by extracellular ATP and UTP molecules released following injury/stress. METHODS AND RESULTS c-Kit+ hCPCs were isolated from cardiac tissue of patients with HF undergoing left ventricular assist device implantation surgery. Correlations between P2 nucleotide receptor expression and hCPC growth kinetics revealed downregulation of select P2 receptors, including P2Y2R, in slow-growing hCPCs compared with fast growers. hCPC proliferation and migration significantly improved by overexpressing or stimulating P2Y2R. Mechanistically, P2Y2R-induced proliferation and migration were dependent on activation of YAP (yes-associated protein)-the downstream effector of Hippo signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS Proliferation and migration of functionally impaired hCPCs are enhanced by P2Y2R-mediated YAP activation, revealing a novel link between extracellular nucleotides released during injury/stress and Hippo signaling-a central regulator of cardiac regeneration. Functional correlations exist between hCPC phenotypic properties and P2 purinergic receptor expression. Lack of P2Y2R and other crucial purinergic stress detectors could compromise hCPC responsiveness to presence of extracellular stress signals. These findings set the stage for subsequent studies to assess purinergic signaling modulation as a potential strategy to improve therapeutic outcome for use of hCPCs in patients with HF.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is used to stimulate the repair of acute and chronic cartilage damage even though there is no definitive evidence of how this is achieved. Chondrocytes in injured and diseased situations frequently re-express phenotypic biomarkers of immature cartilage so tissue maturation is a potential pathway for restoration of normal structure and function. We used an in vitro model of growth factor-induced maturation to perform a comparative study in order to determine whether PRP can also induce this specific form of remodeling that is characterised by increased cellular proliferation and tissue stiffness. Gene expression patterns specific for maturation were mimicked in PRP treated cartilage, with chondromodulin, collagen types II/X downregulated, deiodinase II and netrin-1 upregulated. PRP increased cartilage surface cell density 1.5-fold (P < 0.05), confirmed by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation and proportionate increases in proliferating cell nuclear antigen gene expression. Atomic force microscopy analysis of PRP and growth factor treated cartilage gave a 5-fold increase in stiffness correlating with a 10-fold upregulation of lysyl oxidase like-1 gene expression (P < 0.001). These data show PRP induces key aspects of post-natal maturation in immature cartilage and provides the basis to evaluate a new biological rationale for its activity when used clinically to initiate joint repair.

Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease worldwide. In the past decade, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been used widely for the treatment of OA. A potential mechanism of MSC-based therapies has been attributed to the paracrine secretion of trophic factors, in which exosomes may play a major role. In this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of exosomes secreted by synovial membrane MSCs (SMMSC-Exos) and exosomes secreted by induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs (iMSC-Exos) on the treatment of OA. Methods Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs and synovial membrane MSCs were characterized by flow cytometry. iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos were isolated using an ultrafiltration method. Tunable resistive pulse-sensing analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and western blots were used to identify exosomes. iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos were injected intra-articularly in a mouse model of collagenase-induced OA and the efficacy of exosome injections was assessed by macroscopic, histological, and immunohistochemistry analysis. We also evaluated the effects of iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos on proliferation and migration of human chondrocytes by cell-counting and scratch assays, respectively. Results The majority of iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos were approximately 50–150 nm in diameter and expressed CD9, CD63, and TSG101. The injection of iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos both attenuated OA in the mouse OA model, but iMSC-Exos had a superior therapeutic effect compared with SMMSC-Exos. Similarly, chondrocyte migration and proliferation were stimulated by both iMSC-Exos and SMMSC-Exos, with iMSC-Exos exerting a stronger effect. Conclusions The present study demonstrated that iMSC-Exos have a greater therapeutic effect on OA than SMMSC-Exos. Because autologous iMSCs are theoretically inexhaustible, iMSC-Exos may represent a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained popularity within the orthopaedic community as a treatment modality to enhance tissue healing. PURPOSE This review aims to concisely present the current indications for PRP injections in the treatment of hip and pelvic pathologies and to describe some novel applications for PRP which have not yet been reported in the literature. METHODS We reviewed the literature on the non-operative and operative indications for PRP in the treatment of hip and pelvic pathologies. CONCLUSIONS With regard to hip and pelvic pathologies, PRP injections are used most commonly as a non-operative intervention, and have been described in the literature to treat osteoarthritis of the hip joint as well as tendinopathy of the hamstrings, adductor longus, and gluteus medius. In contrast, most of the surgical applications of PRP for the hip are novel, with few reported studies in the literature. Because of the increasing awareness of PRP's beneficial effects on musculoskeletal healing and thus the growing number of indications for its use, this review also describes some novel applications for PRP, including osteitis pubis, post-microfracture of the hip, tears of the rectus femoris, and avulsion of the sartorius muscle.
