Abstract
Physiological repair of large-sized bone defects requires instructive scaffolds with appropriate mechanical properties, biocompatibility, biodegradability, vasculogenic ability and osteo-inductivity. The objective of this study was to fabricate in situ injectable hydrogels using platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-loaded gelatin methacrylate (GM) and employ them for the regeneration of large-sized bone defects. We performed various biological assays as well as assessed the mechanical properties of GM@PRP hydrogels alongside evaluating the release kinetics of growth factors (GFs) from hydrogels. The GM@PRP hydrogels manifested sufficient mechanical properties to support the filling of the tissue defects. For biofunction assay, the GM@PRP hydrogels significantly improved cell migration and angiogenesis. Especially, transcriptome RNA sequencing of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and bone marrow-derived stem cells were performed to delineate vascularization and biomineralization abilities of GM@PRP hydrogels. The GM@PRP hydrogels were subcutaneously implanted in rats for up to 4 weeks for preliminary biocompatibility followed by their transplantation into a tibial defect model for up to 8 weeks in rats. Tibial defects treated with GM@PRP hydrogels manifested significant bone regeneration as well as angiogenesis, biomineralization, and collagen deposition. Based on the biocompatibility and biological function of GM@PRP hydrogels, a new strategy is provided for the regenerative repair of large-size bone defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The development of treatments that promote the regenerative capacity of the olfactory epithelium (OE) is desirable. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intranasal administration of concentrated growth factors (CGFs) in a rat model of olfactory dysfunction. STUDY DESIGN Animal study. METHODS Nineteen male rats were used. Fourteen olfactory dysfunction models were created by intraperitoneal administration of 3-methylindole. We randomly divided the rats from the olfactory dysfunction model after 1 week into the CGF or saline group; CGFs were administered to seven animals and saline to seven animals. Behavioral assessments using the avoidance test were conducted until day 28 after CGF/saline administration. On day 28, histological evaluation was conducted to determine olfactory epithelial thickness and the olfactory marker protein (OMP)-positive cell count. Five animals were intraperitoneally injected with saline as the control group. RESULTS The avoidance rate remained decreased until 28 days after CGF/saline administration, and there was no significant difference between the two groups. Olfactory epithelial thicknesses on day 28 were 38.64 ± 3.17 μm and 32.84 ± 4.50 μm in the CGF and saline groups, respectively. OE thickness was significantly thicker in the CGF group than in the saline group (P = 0.013). The numbers of OMP-positive cells were 40.29 ± 9.77/1.0 × 104 μm2 and 31.00 ± 3.69/1.0 × 104 μm2 in the CGF and saline groups, respectively. The number of OMP+ cells in the CGF group was significantly increased compared with that in the saline group (P = 0.009). Both groups showed no improvement compared with the control group (OE thickness: 54.08 ± 3.36 μm; OMP+ cell count: 56.90 ± 9.91/1.0 × 104 μm2). CONCLUSIONS The CGF group showed improved olfactory epithelial thickness and OMP-positive cell numbers compared with that in the saline group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous fat is a rich source of adipose tissue that is safe for transplantation. Decreasing the long-term absorption rate is key to improve the survival of transplanted adipose tissue. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the survival of transplanted adipose tissue for repair of facial depression malformations. METHODS Coleman adipose granules (CAGs) were prepared from venous blood. In the animal experiment, the ears of 30 healthy male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly allocated to 1 of 4 groups: CGF + CAG (CGF group), platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) + CAG (PRF group), CAG alone (CAG group), and adipose granule transplantation group (control group). Postoperative survival of the transplanted adipose tissue was assessed, the survival and absorption rates of adipose were calculated, and immunohistochemical analysis of specimens was conducted by staining with hematoxylin and eosin and Oil Red O. Of 43 outpatients, 22 received simple adipose transplantation and 21 received autologous CGF combined with adipose transplantation. The adipose absorption rate, complication rate, and cosmetic improvement of the 2 groups were compared. RESULTS More adipocytes that are normal were observed in the CGF group, with fewer vacuoles and more uniform distribution of adipose tissue. Survival of the adipose tissue was superior in the CGF and PRF groups. Meanwhile, vascular density and long-term stability were better in the CGF group than the PRF group. In terms of clinical efficacy, the uniformity and survival rate of the adipose tissue were relatively improved in the CGF group compared with the simple adipose particle transplantation group, with less early liquefaction. CONCLUSION Concentrated growth factor stabilized and improved the survival of transplanted adipose tissue for filling of facial depression malformations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the histomorphometric changes occurring in alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) based on the use of different plasma concentrates (PCs) in randomized clinical trials (RCT). There is controversy whether the placement of PCs in ARP is effective in the formation of new bone. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Database to answer the PICO question: In patients undergoing tooth extraction followed by ARP, do PCs alone in the post-extraction socket in comparison with spontaneous healing improve new vital bone formation percentage in histomorphometric analysis after more than 10 weeks? The risk of bias was assessed and a meta-analysis was conducted. RESULTS Of 3809 results, 8 studies were considered suitable for inclusion. A total of 255 teeth were extracted in 250 patients. Regarding the PCs used, ARP was performed with platelet- and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in 120 sockets, and with pure platelet-rich plasma (P-PRP) in 31 sockets and 104 sockets were controlled. PCs improved new bone formation in ARP with respect to the spontaneous healing group (SMD = 1.77, 95%C.I. = 1.47-2.06, p-value < 000.1). There were no differences between the different PCs (L-PRF and P-PRP). CONCLUSION The results of this meta-analysis support the efficacy of the use of PCs in new bone formation in ARP. With respect to the different types of PCs studied, no differences were observed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE When planning implant surgery after tooth extraction, treatment with PCs should be considered for ARP. Any PC increases new bone formation compared to spontaneous healing.

MicroRNA-223 negatively regulates the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament derived cells by directly targeting growth factor receptors. Lab Invest 2022; 20:465. [PMID: 36221121 PMCID: PMC9552407 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03676-1] [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: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Background MicroRNA (miRNA) is accepted as a critical regulator of cell differentiation. However, whether microRNA-223 (miR-223) could affect the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament (PDL)-derived cells is still unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms underlying the roles of miR-223 in the osteogenesis of PDL-derived cells in periodontitis. Methods Microarray analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to identify difference in miR-223 expression pattern between healthy and inflamed gingival tissue. The target genes of miR-223 were predicted based on Targetscan and selected for enrichment analyses based on Metascape database. The gain-and loss-of-function experiments were performed to discuss roles of miR-223 and growth factor receptor genes in osteogenic differentiation of PDL-derived cells. The target relationship between miR-223 and growth factor receptor genes was confirmed by a dual luciferase assay. Osteogenic differentiation of PDL-derived cells was assessed by Alizarin red staining, RT-PCR and western blot detection of osteogenic markers, including osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2). Results MiR-223 was significantly increased in inflamed gingival tissues and down-regulated in PDL-derived cells during osteogenesis. The expression of miR-223 in gingival tissues was positively correlated with the clinical parameters in periodontitis patients. Overexpression of miR-223 markedly inhibited PDL-derived cells osteogenesis, which was evidenced by reduced Alizarin red staining and osteogenic markers expressions. Furthermore, two growth factor receptor genes, including fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) and transforming growth factor beta receptor 2 (TGFβR2), were revealed to be direct targets of miR-223 and shown to undergo up-regulation in PDL-derived cells during osteogenesis. Moreover, suppression of FGFR2 or TGFβR2 dramatically blocked PDL-derived cells osteogenic differentiation. Conclusions Our study provides novel evidence that miR-223 can be induced by periodontitis and acts as a negative regulator of PDL-derived cells osteogenesis by targeting two growth factor receptors (TGFβR2 and FGFR2).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous platelet concentrate has been widely used to encourage the regeneration of hard and soft tissues. Up to now, there are three generations of autologous platelet concentrates. Many studies have shown that the three autologous concentrates have different effects, but the specific diversities have not been studied. The purpose of this study was to explore and compare the effects of platelet-rich fibrin, concentrated growth factor and platelet-poor plasma on the healing of tooth extraction sockets in New Zealand rabbits. METHODS A total of 24 healthy male New Zealand white rabbits aged 8-12 weeks were selected. The experimental animals were randomly divided into four groups: three experimental groups were respectively implanted with PPP, CGF and PRF gel after bilateral mandibular anterior teeth were extracted, and the control group did not implant any material. The alveolar bone of the mandibular anterior region was taken at 2, 4 and 8 weeks after operation. The height and width of the extraction wound were detected by CBCT, the growth of the new bone was observed by HE and Masson staining, and the expression of osteogenic genes was detected by real-time PCR. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS statistical package 22.0. RESULTS The radiological results showed that alveolar bone resorption in all groups gradually increased over time. However, the experimental groups showed lower amounts of bone resorption. The histological results showed that new bone formation was observed in all groups. Over time, the new bone trabeculae of the CGF group became closely aligned while those in the PPP and PRF groups remained scattered. PCR results showed that the expression of BMP-2 and ALP was higher in the experimental groups than the control group. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the application of PRF, CGF and PPP in tooth extraction sockets effectively promoted bone regeneration. CGF showed more effective bone induction and tissue regeneration ability in the long term.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:11331.

Abstract
Concentrated growth factor (CGF) is 100% blood-derived, cross-linked fibrin glue with platelets and growth factors. Human CGF clot is transformed into membrane by a compression device, which has been widely used clinically. However, the mechanical properties of the CGF membranes have not been well characterized. The aims of this study were to measure the tensile strength of human CGF membrane and observe its behavior as a scaffold of BMP-2 in ectopic site over the skull. The tensile test of the full length was performed at the speed of 2mm/min. The CGF membrane (5 × 5 × 2 mm3) or the CGF/BMP-2 (1.0 μg) membrane was grafted onto the skull periosteum of nude mice (5-week-old, male), and harvested at 14 days after the graft. The appearance and size of the CGF membranes were almost same for 7 days by soaking at 4 °C in saline. The average values of the tensile strength at 0 day and 7 days were 0.24 MPa and 0.26 MPa, respectively. No significant differences of both the tensile strength and the elastic modulus were found among 0, 1, 3, and 7 days. Supra-periosteal bone induction was found at 14 days in the CGF/BMP-2, while the CGF alone did not induce bone. These results demonstrated that human CGF membrane could become a short-term, sticky fibrin scaffold for BMP-2, and might be preserved as auto-membranes for wound protection after the surgery.

Abstract
Platelet concentrates have been widely used in regenerative medicine, including endodontics. The aim of this manuscript was to assess critically the efficacy of PRF in the treatment of endodontic periapical lesions in adult patients on the basis of the literature. The PICO approach was used to properly develop literature search strategies. The PubMed database was analyzed with the keywords: "((PRP) OR (PRF) OR (PRGF) OR (CGF)) AND (endodontic) AND ((treatment) OR (therapy))". After screening of 155 results, 14 articles were included in this review. Different types of platelet concentrates are able to stimulate the processes of proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) releases growth factors for at least 7 days at the application site. Growth factors and released cytokines stimulate the activity of osteoblasts. Moreover, the release of growth factors accelerates tissue regeneration by increasing the migration of fibroblasts. It was not possible to assess the efficacy of PRF supplementation in the treatment of endodontic periapical lesions in permanent, mature teeth with closed apexes, due to the lack of well-designed scientific research. Further studies are needed to analyze the effect of PRF on the healing processes in the periapical region.

Abstract
Solid platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), consisting of coagulated plasma from fractionated blood, has been proposed to be a suitable carrier for recombinant bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) to target mesenchymal cells during bone regeneration. However, whether solid PRF can increase the expression of BMPs in mesenchymal cells remains unknown. Proteomics analysis confirmed the presence of TGF-β1 but not BMP2 in PRF lysates. According to the existing knowledge of recombinant TGF-β1, we hypothesized that PRF can increase BMP2 expression in mesenchymal cells. To test this hypothesis, we blocked TGF-β receptor 1 kinase with SB431542 in gingival fibroblasts exposed to PRF lysates. RT-PCR and immunoassays confirmed that solid PRF lysates caused a robust SB431542-dependent increase in BMP2 expression in gingival fibroblasts. Additionally, fractions of liquid PRF, namely platelet-poor plasma (PPP) and the buffy coat (BC) layer, but not heat-denatured PPP (Alb-gel), greatly induced the expression of BMP2 in gingival fibroblasts. Even though PRF has no detectable BMPs, PRF lysates similar to recombinant TGF-β1 had the capacity to provoke canonical BMP signaling, as indicated by the nuclear translocation of Smad1/5 and the increase in its phosphorylation. Taken together, our data suggest that PRF can activate TGF-β receptor 1 kinase and consequently induce the production of BMP2 in cells of the mesenchymal lineage.

Li Z, Liu L, Wang L, Song D. The effects and potential applications of concentrated growth factor in dentin-pulp complex regeneration. Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 12:357. [PMID: 34147130 PMCID: PMC8214771 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-021-02446-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/06/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The dentin-pulp complex is essential for the long-term integrity and viability of teeth but it is susceptible to damage caused by external factors. Because traditional approaches for preserving the dentin-pulp complex have various limitations, there is a need for novel methods for dentin-pulp complex reconstruction. The development of stem cell-based tissue engineering has given rise to the possibility of combining dental stem cells with a tissue-reparative microenvironment to promote dentin-pulp complex regeneration. Concentrated growth factor, a platelet concentrate, is a promising scaffold for the treatment of dentin-pulp complex disorders. Given its characteristics of autogenesis, convenience, usability, and biodegradability, concentrated growth factor has gained popularity in medical and dental fields for repairing bone defects and promoting soft-tissue healing. Numerous in vitro studies have demonstrated that concentrated growth factor can promote the proliferation and migration of dental stem cells. Here, we review the current state of knowledge on the effects of concentrated growth factor on stem cells and its potential applications in dentin-pulp complex regeneration.

Responses of canine periodontal ligament cells to bubaline blood derived platelet rich fibrin in vitro. Sci Rep 2021; 11:11409. [PMID: 34075114 PMCID: PMC8169705 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-90906-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 05/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) promotes wound healing by providing the release of growth factors. Here, the influence of Thai and Murrah bubaline blood derived PRF on canine periodontal ligament cells (cPDLs) was investigated. PRF was prepared from Thai and Murrah buffaloes with single centrifugation. Results demonstrated that Thai bubaline blood derived PRF exhibited fiber-mesh like morphology and contained more platelet entrapment than Murrah bubaline blood derived PRF. Both bubaline PRFs were able to degrade in vitro under condition with trypsin. Thai but not Murrah bubaline blood derived PRF promoted cPDLs proliferation in serum free and 2% serum culture conditions. Correspondingly, the significant upregulation of KI67 mRNA expression was observed in those cells treated with Thai bubaline blood derived PRF. However, both Thai and Murrah bubaline blood derived PRF accelerated cell migration in an in vitro wound healing assay and facilitated cell spreading. Further, cPDLs cultured in osteogenic induction medium supplemented with Thai bubaline blood derived PRF exhibited the increased mineral deposition in vitro. Frozen Thai bubaline blood derived PRF also promoted cell proliferation, KI67 mRNA expression, cell migration, and cell spreading in cPDLs. Taken these evidence together, bubaline blood derived PRF could provide potential benefits for canine periodontal tissue healing.

Human Fresh Fibrin Membrane with Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) Induces Bone Formation in the Subcutaneous Tissues of Nude Mice. MATERIALS 2020; 14:ma14010150. [PMID: 33396335 PMCID: PMC7796051 DOI: 10.3390/ma14010150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2020] [Revised: 12/19/2020] [Accepted: 12/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Autologous blood-derived fibrin glue with platelets, called the concentrated growth factor (CGF), can be prepared immediately by only the decided centrifuge without the addition of coagulation factors. Collagen materials combined with recombinant human BMP-2 have been commercially available for clinical use. The fresh CGF is auto-clot with wettability and elasticity, while most collagen membranes are derived from the cow or pig. The fresh CGF has wettability and elasticity, while collagen membranes are dry materials without elasticity. The aim of this study was to observe the microstructures of human CGF membrane and evaluate its behavior as a delivery scaffold of rhBMP-2 in the subcutaneous tissues of nude mice. Twenty-four nude mice (5-week-old, male) were used for the assessment of in vivo ectopic bone formation. Mice were received the CGF membrane as the controls and the CGF/rhBMP-2 membrane as the experimental group in the subcutaneous tissues, and harvested at 7, 10, and 14 days after the graft. Harvested samples were evaluated for the histological examination and the histomorphometric measurement was conducted to compare the residue of the CGF, as well as the new bone. Mature fibrin fibers assembled from multiple fibrillary elements and platelets with the rhBMP-2 membrane induced several bony islands and cartilage without residues of CGF at 14 days, while the CGF membrane alone was almost absorbed at 10 days and failed to induce bone formation at 14 days. These results demonstrated that the fresh, human CGF membrane could contribute to a short-term, sticky fibrin matrix for the delivery of rhBMP-2.

Application of a New Type of Natural Calcined Bone Repair Material Combined with Concentrated Growth Factors in Bone Regeneration in Rabbit Critical-Sized Calvarial Defect. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:8810747. [PMID: 33299879 PMCID: PMC7707950 DOI: 10.1155/2020/8810747] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Revised: 10/27/2020] [Accepted: 11/02/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Purpose This study is aimed at investigating bone regeneration in critical-sized defects in rabbit calvarium using a novel nano- (n-) hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffold with concentrated growth factors (CGFs). Methods Twenty-four male adult rabbits were chosen to establish a critical-sized bone defect model and randomly divided into two groups. Two defects of 15 mm diameter each were created in the parietal bone of each animal. Group A had n-hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffold placed in the experimental defect on the right, and the left defect was unfilled as blank. Group B had hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffold mixed with CGF placed in the right defect and CGF on the left. Six animals in each group were sacrificed after 6 and 12 weeks. Cone-beam computed tomography system scanning and hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining were used to detect osteogenesis within the defects. Results The treatment with n-hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffold along with CGF resulted in a significantly higher amount of new bone at 6 and 12 weeks compared to the treatment with CGF alone and the controls. No apparent inflammation and foreign body reaction were observed through HE staining. Conclusions The new synthesized n-hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffold and CGF can be applied for bone defect regeneration to promote the process to a certain extent.

Abstract
Different strategies have been utilized to facilitate mineralized/soft tissues. Concentrated growth factor (CGF) emerges as a promising biomaterial for regenerative therapy due to high levels of platelets, growth factors, and nucleated cells entrapped in the fibrin scaffold. This review aimed to collect extensive studies on CGF used in maxillofacial regenerative medicine, discussing current obstacles, and expressing some considerations of CGF use. Articles were retrieved systematically without time limitation. In total, 27 human studies were included and separated accordingly. In general, CGF has been most evaluated in implant related therapy and maxillofacial bone regeneration where a majority of articles have revealed favorable outcomes. Little studies have supported the effects on improving probing periodontal depth reductions and clinical attachment level gains for intrabony and furcation defect regeneration. Very little data with high-level evidence was available directly to investigate its effects on the soft tissue regeneration and postoperative complications reduction. The evidence supporting the clinical efficacy of CGF in maxillofacial regenerative medicine is limited. Some conflicting results are worrisome. In addition, the characterization of CGF preparation protocols and CGF's components was not performed in most studies. Further studies should make a consensus on standardized end-product of CGF including characterization of protocols and optimal ratio of CGF' components. Defined algorithms and evidence-based protocols for the clinical use of CGF should be also available.

Abstract
Background The aim of this stay was to determine the effect of calcium ions in promoting osteogenic-like differentiation in human renal interstitial fibroblasts (hRIFs). The role of miRNA-410-3p in upregulating Msh homeobox 2 (MSX2) level in hRIFs was also investigated. Methods Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis was used to assess the expression levels of miRNA-410-3p in Randall’s plaque (RP) and normal renal papillary (nRP) tissues. Furthermore, the expression levels of osteogenesis-related protein in the RP and nRP tissues were assessed with qPCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC). hRIFs were cultured from isolated human kidney papilla before treatment with calcium chloride or osteogenic medium, and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was performed at 1, 5, 9, and 14 days post-treatment. Alizarin red staining was used to estimate the deposits of calcium aggregates. After the overexpression or knockdown of miRNA-410-3p, we evaluated the changes in the osteogenic-like differentiation and osteogenesis-related protein by alizarin red staining and qPCR, respectively. A binding relationship between miRNA-410-3p and MSX2 was established through a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Rescue experiments demonstrated that miRNA-410-3p regulated the osteogenic-like differentiation by targeting MSX2. Results miRNA-410-3p levels were lower in RP tissue than in control nRP tissues. qPCR and IHC showed that the level of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteopontin (OPN) were higher in RP tissues. The calcium deposition of hRIFs showed a time-dependent trend when treated with osteogenic medium or calcium chloride. The overexpression of miRNA-410-3p downregulated the levels of osteogenesis-related expression and attenuated mineralization. The knockdown of miRNA-410-3p yielded the opposite trend. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and rescue experiments indicated that miRNA-410-3p could target MSX2, while the overexpression of MSX2 reversed the effects of miRNA-410-3p on osteogenic-like differentiation. Conclusions The current findings suggest that calcium ions could promote the osteogenic-like differentiation of hRIFs and miRNA-410-3p regulates hRIFs osteogenic-like differentiation by inhibiting MSX2.
