Abstract
Diabetic wounds remain a global challenge due to disordered wound healing led by inflammation, infection, oxidative stress, and delayed proliferation. Therefore, an ideal wound dressing for diabetic wounds not only needs tissue adhesiveness, injectability, and self-healing properties but also needs a full regulation of the microenvironment. In this work, adhesive wound dressings (HA-DA/PRP) with injectability were fabricated by combining platelet rich plasma (PRP) and dopamine-modified-hyaluronic acid (HA-DA). The engineered wound dressings exhibited tissue adhesiveness, rapid self-healing, and shape adaptability, thereby enhancing stability and adaptability to irregular wounds. The in vitro experiments demonstrated that HA-DA/PRP adhesives significantly promoted fibroblast proliferation and migration, attributed to the loaded PRP. The adhesives showed antibacterial properties against both gram-positive and negative bacteria. Moreover, in vitro experiments confirmed that HA-DA/PRP adhesives effectively mitigated oxidative stress and inflammation. Finally, HA-DA/PRP accelerated the healing of diabetic wounds by inhibiting bacterial growth, promoting granulation tissue regeneration, accelerating neovascularization, facilitating collagen deposition, and modulating inflammation through inducing M1 to M2 polarization, in an in vivo model of infected diabetic wounds. Overall, HA-DA/PRP adhesives with the ability to comprehensively regulate the microenvironment in diabetic wounds may provide a novel approach to expedite the diabetic wounds healing in clinic.

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

Abstract
The rapid and effective healing of skin wounds resulted from severe injuries and full-layer skin defects remains a pressing clinical challenge in contemporary medical practice. The reduction of wound infection and rapid healing is helpful to rebuild and repair skin tissue. Here, a thermosensitive chitosan-based wound dressing hydrogel incorporating β-glycerophosphate (GP), hydroxy propyl cellulose (HPC), graphene oxide (GO), and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is developed, which exhibits the dual functions of antibacterial properties and repair promotion. GP and HPC enhance the mechanical properties through forming hydrogen bonding connection, while GO produces local heat under near-infrared light, leading to improved blood circulation and skin recovery. Notably, antibacterial properties against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and control-release of growth factors from PRP are also achieved based on the system. In vitro experiments reveal its biocompatibility, and ability to promote cell proliferation and migration. Animal experiments demonstrate that the epithelial repair and collagen deposition can be promoted during skin wound healing in Sprague Dawley rats. Moreover, a reduction in wound inflammation levels and the improvement of wound microenvironment are observed, collectively fostering effective wound healing. Therefore, the composite hydrogel system incorporated with GO and PRP can be a promising dressing for the treatment of skin wounds.

Abstract
Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains growth factors (GFs) that modulate the expression of inflammatory cells; thus, these products could be considered a good strategy to favor tissue regeneration in feline immunodeficiency (FIV) positive cats. However, there is no scientific documentation on obtaining PRP in FIV-positive cats. Authors hypothesized that PRP can be obtained in FIV cats following the PRGF®-Endoret® methodology. The objectives of this study were to compare the platelet, erythrocyte, and leukocyte concentration between whole blood (WB) and the PRP; and determine the concentration of platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in FIV-positive cats. Sixteen adults FIV-positive asymptomatic cats were included in the study. WB samples were drawn and the PRP was obtained by centrifugation at 265g for 10 min. Erythrocyte and leukocyte, platelets, and mean platelet volume (MPV) were determined both in WB and in PRP. PDGF-BB and TGF-β1 concentrations were additionally determined in PRP. Platelet concentration increased 1.1 times in PRP fraction compared to WB, but no significant differences were reported. MPV was statistically higher in WB than in PRP (p = 0.001). Erythrocytes and leukocytes counts were decreased by 99% and 92%, respectively in the PRP fraction (p < 0.001). Regarding TGF-ß1, a higher concentration was shown in the PRP (p < 0.02). Although the product obtained could not be classified as PRP according to the PRGF®-Endoret® methodology, based on the drastic reduction of RBC and WBC, the PLT concentrate is of high purity.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains a variety of growth factors (GFs) and has been used in the treatment of a variety of diseases, including skin lesions. In particular, PRP with low immunogenicity will be more widely used. However, the explosive release of GFs limits its further application. In order to achieve controlled release of GFs, a multifunctional and reactive oxygen species (ROS)/pH dual responsive hydrogel was developed to load PRP derived from human cord blood for the treatment of skin wound healing. Based on the hydrogen bond and Schiff base interaction, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), oxidized dextran (Odex) and oligomeric procyanidins (OPC) were crosslinked to form CMCS/Odex/OPC/PRP hydrogel with good injectability, self-healing, adhesion, ROS scavenging, antibacterial activity, controlled and sustained release of GFs. In vitro cell experiments suggested that this hydrogel possessed excellent biocompatibility and could promote the proliferation and migration of L929. In vivo healing of full-layer skin wounds further indicated that the prepared hydrogel could regulate inflammation and promote epithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis. In summary, this present study demonstrates that CMCS/Odex/OPC/PRP hydrogel may serve as a promising multifunctional dressing for skin wound healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The skin is the largest organ in the human body and serves as a barrier for protective, immune, and sensory functions. Continuous and permanent exposure to the external environment results in different levels of skin and extracellular matrix damage. During skin wound healing, the use of good dressings and addition of growth factors to the wound site can effectively modulate the rate of wound healing. A dressing containing bioactive substances can absorb wound exudates and reduce adhesion between the wound and dressing, whereas growth factors, cytokines, and signaling factors can promote cell motility and proliferation. AIM AND OBJECTIVES We prepared a functional wound dressing by combining platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and zwitterionic hydrogels. Functional wound dressings are rich in various naturally occurring growth factors that can effectively promote the healing process in various types of tissues and absorb wound exudates to reduce adhesion between wounds and dressings. Furthermore, PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels have been used to repair full-thickness wounds in Sprague-Dawley rats with diabetes (DM SD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fibroblasts and keratinocytes were cultured with PRP, zwitterionic hydrogels, and PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels to assess cell proliferation and specific gene expression. Furthermore, PRP-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels were used to repair full-thickness skin defects in DM SD rats. RESULTS The swelling ratio of hydrogel, hydrogel + PRP1000 (108 platelets/mL), and hydrogel + PRP1000 (109 platelets/mL) groups were similar (~07.71% ± 1.396%, 700.17% ± 1.901%, 687.48% ± 4.661%, respectively) at 144 hours. The tensile strength and Young modulus of the hydrogel and hydrogel + PRP10000 groups were not significantly different. High concentrations of PRP (approximately 108 and 109 platelets/mL) effectively promoted the proliferation of fibroblasts and keratinocytes. The zwitterionic hydrogels were not cytotoxic to any cell type. High PRP concentration-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels increased the rate of cell proliferation and significantly increased the expression of characteristic genes such as collagen, fibronectin, involucrin, and keratin. Subsequently, zwitterionic hydrogels with high PRP concentrations were used to repair full-thickness skin defects in DM SD rats, and a wound healing rate of more than 90% was recorded on day 12. CONCLUSIONS PRP contains high concentrations of growth factors that promote cell viability, enhance specific gene expression, and have a high medical value in cell therapy. Zwitterionic hydrogels have a 3-dimensional interconnected microporous structure and can resist cell adhesion without causing cytotoxicity. Platelet-rich plasma-incorporated zwitterionic hydrogels further enhance the cellular properties and provide an effective therapeutic option for wound healing.

Abstract
In the burgeoning domain of orthopedic therapeutic research, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) has firmly established its position, transforming paradigms ranging from tissue regeneration to the management of chondral lesions. This review delves into PRP's recent integrations with cutting-edge interventions such as 3D-printed scaffolds, its role in bone and cartilage defect management, and its enhanced efficacy when combined with molecules like Kartogenin (KGN) for fibrocartilage zone repair. Significant attention is paid to tissue engineering for meniscal interventions, where a combination of KGN, PRP, and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells are under exploration. Within the sphere of osteochondral regenerative therapy, the synergy of PRP with Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) represents a noteworthy leap towards cartilage regeneration. The innovative incorporation of PRP with biomaterials like hydroxyapatite and graphene oxide further underscores its versatility in supporting structural integrity and ensuring sustained growth factor release. However, while PRP's autologous and nontoxic nature makes it an inherently safe option, concerns arising from its preparation methods, particularly with bovine thrombin, necessitate caution. As of 2023, despite the burgeoning promise of PRP in bone healing, the quest for its standardization, optimization, and substantiation through rigorous clinical trials continues. This comprehensive review elucidates the contemporary applications, challenges, and future trajectories of PRP in orthopedics, aiming to spotlight areas primed for further research and exploration.

Abstract
Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has been becoming popular for the treatment of musculotendinous injuries among athletes. However, for individual and practical variations, clinical success is hardly predictable. To overcome this difficulty, we have been exploring possible criterion candidates for monitoring its clinical effectiveness. In this study, we focused on sex-based differences in young elite athletes and compared the biochemical compositions of their PRP. Leukocyte-rich PRP (L-PRP) was manually prepared from blood samples collected from male professional soccer players (mPSPs) (n = 25) and female college athletes (fCAs) (n = 36). Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB), transforming-growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1), platelet factor-4 (PF4), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) were quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The levels of PDGF-BB, TGFβ1, and PF4 in L-PRP were significantly higher in mPSPs than in fCAs. Conversely, IL-1β and IL-1RA were detected at significantly and slightly higher levels, respectively, in fCAs than in mPSPs. Our findings suggest that, even though L-PRP from fCAs may have lower potential to induce cell growth and differentiation than that of mPSPs, due to the latter's higher capacity to control inflammation, it does not necessarily imply that PRP treatment in fCAs is less effective. Thus, these cytokine levels should be checked before PRP therapy.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effects of ovarian injection of autologous platelet rich plasma (aPRP) on patients with poor ovarian responder (POR) based on the existing clinical evidence. Methods According to systematic review and meta-analysis, we comprehensively searched nine databases established as of September 6, 2023, and evaluated the impact of ovarian PRP infusion on poor ovarian responder. The research results include serum follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) and anti-Mullerian hormone(AMH) levels, antral Follicle Count(AFC), oocyte number, and embryo number. The Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of inclusion in trials. Results Add up to 10 studies consisting of 793 participants were included in the meta-analysis. A review of existing evidence showed that intraovarian injection of PRP has significant therapeutic effects in increasing levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) (SMD=0.44,95% CI [0.07,0.81], p=0.02), antral follicle count (AFC) (MD=1.15,95% CI [0.4,1.90], p=0.003), oocyte count (MD=0.91, 95% CI [0.40, 1.41], p=0.0004), and embryo number (MD=0.78, 95% CI [0.5,1.07], p<0.0001). We compared the relevant data of patients before and after treatment after 2 months of intervention. It can be seen that ovarian injection of PRP treatment for 2 months has better effects in reducing FSH levels, increasing AMH levels, increasing antral follicle count, and increasing the number of oocytes and embryos (p<0.05). When the dose of PRP injected into each ovary was ≥ 4ml, there was also a significant correlation (p<0.05) with improving the number of AFC, oocytes and embryos. Significant heterogeneity existed among the studies. Conclusion The pooled results suggest that intra-ovarian injection of PRP can promote ovarian regeneration and improve the reproductive outcomes of patients with ovarian dysfunction. This therapy may have significant clinical potential in improving sex hormone levels, increasing AFC, oocyte count, and embryo count. However, this findings still requires more rigorous and extensive trials worldwide to determine the value of intra-ovarian injection of PRP in POR patients.

Abstract
Permanent injury to corneal limbal stem cells after ocular surface chemical and thermal injuries is a major cause of corneal blindness. In this study, a PRP-laden GelMA hydrogel contact lens is manufactured which is aimed to support the limbal niche after ocular surface insults thereby preventing limbal stem cell failure. GelMA with varying platelet-rich plasma (PRP) concentrations (5%, 10%, and 20%) is photopolymerized using a visible light crosslinking system followed by characterizations of mechanical properties, growth factor release, enzymatic degradation, and in vitro cytotoxicity. The addition of 10% PRP into 10% GelMA hydrogel precursor solution results in the highest tensile and compressive modulus (38 and 110 kPa, respectively) and burst pressure (251±37.66 mmHg). Degradation time varies according to the concentration of the collagenase enzyme tested (0, 2.5, 5, and 40 µg/mL) and is most prolonged with 20% PRP. EGF and TGF-β release profiles suggest an initial burst release followed by sustained release, most consistent in the 10% PRP sample. Although cell viability decreases on day 1, rapid recovery is observed and is approximately 120% after day 21. PRP-laden GelMA in the form of a contact lens may be a promising biomaterial-based treatment approach for the maintenance of limbal epithelial stem cells after ocular surface insults.

Abstract
The variability of PRP is a major contributor to the lack of evidence regarding the therapeutic effect of PRP in musculoskeletal diseases. In a large study, we are currently investigating factors that may influence PRP variability. Interim results showed that concentrations of IL‑6, but not IGF‑1 or cellular constituents, were significantly decreased in PRP samples from vegans compared with omnivores and tended to be decreased compared to samples from vegetarians. This suggests that diet may have a significant influence on therapeutically active PRP constituents. However, the constituents studied here did not appear to be significantly affected by the timing of the sampling. Identification of significant variables affecting PRP composition will be critical to provide sufficient medical evidence for the therapeutic effects of PRP in orthopedic conditions.

Abstract
Scaffolds should provide structural support for tissue regeneration, allowing their gradual biodegradation and interacting with cells and bioactive molecules to promote remodeling. Thus, the scaffold's intrinsic properties affect cellular processes involved in tissue regeneration, including migration, proliferation, differentiation, and protein synthesis. In this sense, due to its biological effect and clinical potential, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) fibrin could be considered a successful scaffold. Given the high variability in commercial PRPs formulations, this research focused on assessing the influence of cellular composition on fibrin membrane stability and remodeling cell activity. The stability and biological effect were evaluated at different time points via D-dimer, type I collagen and elastase quantification in culture media conditioned by Plasma Rich in Growth Factors - Fraction 1 (PRGF-F1), Plasma Rich in Growth Factors - Whole Plasma (PRGF-WP) and Leukocyte-rich Platelet Rich Plasma (L-PRP) membranes, and by gingival fibroblast cells seeded on them, respectively. Ultrastructure of PRP membranes was also evaluated. Histological analyses were performed after 5 and 18 days. Additionally, the effect of fibrin membranes on cell proliferation was determined. According to the results, L-PRP fibrin membranes degradation was complete at the end of the study, while PRGF membranes remained practically unchanged. Considering fibroblast behavior, PRGF membranes, in contrast to L-PRP ones, promoted extracellular matrix biosynthesis at the same time as fibrinolysis and enhanced cell proliferation. In conclusion, leukocytes in PRP fibrin membranes drastically reduce scaffold stability and induce behavioral changes in fibroblasts by reducing their proliferation rate and remodeling ability.

Abstract
New studies have shown the great potential of the combination of in situ enzymatically cross-linked hydrogels based on tyramine derivative of hyaluronic acid (HA-TA) with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet lysate in regenerative medicine. This study describes how the presence of PRP and platelet lysate affects the kinetics of gelation, viscoelastic properties, swelling ratio, and the network structure of HA-TA hydrogels and how the encapsulation of PRP in hydrogels affects the bioactivity of released PRP determined as the ability to induce cell proliferation. The properties of hydrogels were tuned by a degree of substitution and concentration of HA-TA derivatives. The addition of platelet derivatives to the reaction mixture slowed down the cross-linking reaction and reduced elastic modulus (G') and thus cross-linking efficiency. However, low-swellable hydrogels (7-190%) suitable for soft tissue engineering with G' 200-1800 Pa were prepared with a gelation time within 1 min. It was confirmed that tested cross-linking reaction conditions are suitable for PRP incorporation because the total bioactivity level of PRP released from HA-TA hydrogels was ≥87% and HA-TA content in the hydrogels and thus mesh size (285-482 nm) has no significant effect on the bioactivity level of released PRP.

Abstract
Strategies for therapeutic lymphangiogenesis are gradually directed toward the use of growth factor preparations. In particular, blood-derived growth factor products, including Hypoxia Preconditioned Serum (HPS) and Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP), are both clinically employed for accelerating tissue repair and have received considerable attention in the field of regenerative medicine research. In this study, a comparative analysis of HPS and PRP was conducted to explore their lymphangiogenic potential. We found higher pro-lymphangiogenic growth factor concentrations of VEGF-C, PDGF-BB, and bFGF in HPS in comparison to normal serum (NS) and PRP. The proliferation and migration of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) were promoted considerably with both HPS and PRP, but the strongest effect was achieved with HPS-40% dilution. Tube formation of LECs showed the highest number of tubes, branching points, greater tube length, and cell-covered area with HPS-10%. Finally, the effects were double-validated using an ex vivo lymphatic ring assay, in which the highest number of sprouts and the greatest sprout length were achieved with HPS-10%. Our findings demonstrate the superior lymphangiogenic potential of a new generation blood-derived secretome obtained by hypoxic preconditioning of peripheral blood cells-a method that offers a novel alternative to PRP.

Abstract
The development of natural hydrogels with sufficient strength and self-healing capacity to accelerate skin wound healing is still challenging. Herein, a hyaluronic acid nanocomposite hydrogel was developed based on aldehyde-modified sodium hyaluronate (AHA), hydrazide-modified sodium hyaluronate (ADA), and aldehyde-modified cellulose nanocrystals (oxi-CNC). This hydrogel was formed in situ using dynamic acylhydrazone bonds via a double-barreled syringe. This hydrogel exhibited improved strength and excellent self-healing ability. Furthermore, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can be loaded in the hyaluronic acid nanocomposite hydrogels (ADAC) via imine bonds formed between amino groups on PRP (e.g., fibrinogen) and aldehyde groups on AHA or oxi-CNC to promote skin wound healing synergistically. As expected, ADAC hydrogel could protect and release PRP sustainably. In animal experiments, ADAC@PRP hydrogel significantly promoted full-thickness skin wound healing through enhancing the formation of granulation tissue, facilitating collagen deposition, and accelerating re-epithelialization and neovascularization. This self-healing nanocomposite hydrogel with PRP loading appears to be a promising candidate for wound therapy.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) can be defined as the result of pathological processes of various etiologies leading to damage to the articular structures. Although the mechanism of degenerative changes has become better understood due to the plethora of biochemical and genetic studies, the drug that could stop the degenerative cascade is still unknown. All available forms of OA therapy are based on symptomatic treatment. According to actual guidelines, comprehensive treatment of OA should always include a combination of various therapeutic options aimed at common goals, which are pain relief in the first place, and then the improvement of function. Local treatment has become more common practice, which takes place between rehabilitation and pharmacological treatment in the hierarchy of procedures. Only in the case of no improvement and the presence of advanced lesions visible in imaging tests, should surgery be considered. Currently, an increasing number of studies are being published suggesting that intra-articular injections may be as effective or even more effective than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and result in fewer systemic adverse events. The most commonly used preparations are hyaluronic acid (HA), glucocorticosteroids (GS), and also platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in recent years. This review aims to present the mechanism of action and clinical effectiveness of different pharmacological options in relieving pain and improving functions in OA as well as the emerging approach in intra-articular treatment with PRP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effects of submucosally administered platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the rate of maxillary canine retraction. Levels of soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor-κb ligand (sRANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) were also measured over 2 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS This split-mouth trial involved 20 sites in 10 subjects randomly assigned to PRP (experimental) side and control side. After alignment, the freshly prepared PRP was injected submucosally distal to the experimental side maxillary canine, and retraction was performed using NiTi closed-coil springs (150 g) on 0.019 × 0.025-inch stainless steel wire. The rate of canine movement was assessed using digital model superimposition at 0, 30, and 60 days. The OPG and sRANKL were assayed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay from GCF collected at 0, 1, 7, 21, 30, and 60 days. RESULTS Twenty sites were analyzed using paired t test. The rate of tooth movement increased significantly by 35% on the PRP side compared with the control side in the first month (P = .0001) and by 14% at the end of the second month (P = .015). Using the Mann-Whitney U test, OPG levels were found to be significantly decreased on the 7th (P = .003) and 30th day on the PRP side (P = .01), while sRANKL became detectable by the third week postinjection on the PRP side (P = .069). CONCLUSIONS Submucosal injection of platelet-rich plasma significantly increased tooth movement during the 60-day observation period. Local injection of PRP significantly altered the levels of OPG and sRANKL in GCF.

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
Over the last three decades, there has been special interest in developing drugs that mimic the characteristics of natural tears for use it in the treatment of several ocular surface disorders. Interestingly, the composition of blood plasma is very similar to tears. Therefore, different blood-derived products like autologous serum (AS) and plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) have been developed for the treatment of diverse ocular pathologies. However, scarce studies have been carried out to analyze the differences between both types of blood-derived products. In the present study, blood from three healthy donors was drawn and processed to obtain AS and PRGF eye drops. Then, human corneal stromal keratocytes (HK) were treated with PRGF or undiluted AS. Proteomic analysis was carried out to analyze and characterize the differential protein profiles between PRGF and AS, and the differentially expressed proteins in HK cells after PRGF and AS treatment. The results obtained in the present study show that undiluted AS induces the activation of different pathways related to an inflammatory, angiogenic, oxidative stress and scarring response in HK cells regarding PRGF. These results suggest that PRGF could be a better alternative than AS for the treatment of ocular surface disorders.

Abstract
To recreate the in vivo niche for tendon tissue engineering in vitro, the characteristics of tendon tissue underlines the use of biochemical and biophysical cues during tenocyte culture. Herein, we prepare core-sheath nanofibers with polycaprolactone (PCL) sheath for mechanical support and hyaluronic acid (HA)/platelet-rich plasma (PRP) core for growth factor delivery. Three types of core-sheath nanofiber membrane scaffolds (CSNMS), consisting of random HA-PCL nanofibers (Random), random HA/PRP-PCL nanofibers (Random+) or aligned HA/PRP-PCL (Align+) nanofibers, were used to study response of rabbit tenocytes to biochemical (PRP) and biophysical (fiber alignment) stimulation. The core-sheath structures as well as other pertinent properties of CSNMS have been characterized, with Align+ showing the best mechanical properties. The unidirectional growth of tenocytes, as induced by aligned fiber topography, was confirmed from cell morphology and cytoskeleton expression. The combined effects of PRP and fiber alignment in Align+ CSNMS lead to enhanced cell proliferation rates, as well as upregulated gene expression and marker protein synthesis. Another biophysical cue on tenocytes was introduced by dynamic culture of tenocyte-seeded Align+ in a bioreactor with cyclic tension stimulation. Augmented by this biophysical beacon from mechanical loading, dynamic cell culture could shorten the time for tendon maturation in vitro, with improved cell proliferation rates and tenogenic phenotype maintenance, compared to static culture. Therefore, we successfully demonstrate how combined use of biochemical/topographical cues as well as mechanical stimulation could ameliorate cellular response of tenocytes in CSNMS, which can provide a functional in vitro environmental niche for tendon tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture is still controversial. The purpose of this systematic review is to assess the efficacy of PRP injections treating acute Achilles tendon rupture. METHODS A comprehensive electronic literature search was performed in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases to identify relevant studies that were published prior to April 29, 2021. Randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of PRP injections in treating patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture were included. Statistical analyses were conducted using RevMan software. RESULTS Five randomized controlled trials were included in this systematic review. The results of the meta-analysis showed that PRP has positive effects on ankle dorsiflexion angle, dorsal extension strength of the ankle, and calf circumference compared with that in controls. However, the current evidence failed to show that PRP effectively improves ankle plantar flexion angle, plantar flexion strength of the ankle, and pain. CONCLUSIONS PRP injections for the treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture significantly improved ankle dorsiflexion angle, dorsal extension strength of the ankle, and calf circumference compared with that in controls. Additional studies with larger sample sizes, more rigorous designs and standardized protocols are needed to draw more reliable and accurate conclusions.

Abstract
Epithelial regeneration is an essential wound healing process, and recent work suggests that different types of exosomes (Exos) can improve wound repair outcomes by promoting such epithelial regeneration. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is known to facilitate enhanced wound healing, yet the mechanisms underlying its activity are poorly understood. To explore these mechanisms, we first isolated PRP-derived Exos (PRP-Exos). Using immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) treated with PBS, PRP, or PRP-Exos, we conducted a series of in vitro Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), EdU, scratch wound, and transwell assays. We then established a wound defect model in vivo in mice and assessed differences in the mRNA expression within these wounds to better understand the basis for PRP-mediated wound healing. The functions of PRP-Exos and USP15 in the context of wound healing were then confirmed through additional in vitro and in vivo experiments. We found that PRP-Exos effectively promoted the in vitro proliferation, migration, and wound healing activity of HaCaT cells. USP15 was further identified as a key mediator through which these PRP-Exos were able to promote tissue repair both in vitro and in vivo. At a mechanistic level, USP15 enhanced the functional properties of HaCaT cells by promoting EIF4A1 deubiquitination. Thus, PRP-Exos and USP15 represent promising tools that can promote wound healing via enhancing epithelial regeneration.

Abstract
Hyperacute serum (HAS) is a blood derivative product that promotes the proliferation of various cell types and controls inflammation in vitro. The aim of this study is to investigate the regenerative potential of different formulations of HAS, including lyophilized and hyaluronic acid combined versions, to obtain a stable and standardized therapeutic in osteoarthritis (OA), which may be able to overcome the variability limitations of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Primary human osteoarthritic chondrocytes were used for testing cellular viability and gene expression of OA-related genes. Moreover, a co-culture of human explants of cartilage, bone and synovium under inflammatory conditions was used for investigating the inflammatory control capacities of the different therapeutics. In this study, one formulation of lyophilized HAS achieved the high cell viability rates of liquid HAS and PRP. Gene expression analysis showed that HAS induced higher Col1a1 expression than PRP. Cytokine quantification from supernatant fluids revealed that HAS treatment of inflamed co-cultures significantly reduced levels of IL-5, IL-15, IL-2, TNFα, IL-7 and IL-12. To conclude, lyophilized HAS is a stable and standardized therapeutic with high potential in joint regeneration.

Abstract
Incisional hernia is a common complication of hernia repair despite the development of various synthetic and bio-synthetic repair materials. Poor long-term mechanical strength, leading to high recurrence rates, has limited the use of acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) in ventral hernia repair (VHR). Biologically derived meshes have been an area of increasing interest. Still these materials bring the risk of more aggressive immune response and fibrosis in addition to the mechanical failures suffered by the synthetic materials. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a growth-factor-rich autologous blood product, has been shown to improve early neovascularization, tissue deposition, and to decrease the rates of recurrence. Here, we demonstrate that PRP promotes the release of growth factors stromal derived factor (SDF)-1, transforming growth factor-beta, and platelet-derived growth factor in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, we utilize an aortic ring angiogenesis assay to show that PRP promotes angiogenesis in vitro. A rat model of VHR using StratticeTM ADM demonstrates similar findings in vivo, corresponding with the increased expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and collagen type 1 alpha 1. Finally, we show that the molecular and cellular activity initiated by PRP results in an increased mechanical stiffness of the hernia repair mesh over time. Collectively, these data represent an essential step in demonstrating the utility and the mechanism of platelet-derived plasma in biomaterial-aided wound healing and provide promising preclinical data that suggest such materials may improve surgical outcomes.

Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) represents a clinical challenge due to poor potential for spontaneous healing of cartilage lesions. Several treatment options are available for KOA, including oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapy, braces, activity modification, and finally operative treatment. Intra-articular (IA) injections are usually used when the non-operative treatment is not effective, and when the surgery is not yet indicated. More and more studies suggesting that IA injections are as or even more efficient and safe than NSAIDs. Recently, research to improve intra-articular homeostasis has focused on biologic adjuncts, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The catabolic and inflammatory intra-articular processes that exists in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) may be influenced by the administration of PRP and its derivatives. PRP can induce a regenerative response and lead to the improvement of metabolic functions of damaged structures. However, the positive effect on chondrogenesis and proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) is still highly controversial. Recommendations from in vitro and animal research often lead to different clinical outcomes because it is difficult to translate non-clinical study outcomes and methodology recommendations to human clinical treatment protocols. In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanism of PRP action. In this review, we will discuss mechanisms related to inflammation and chondrogenesis in cartilage repair and regenerative processes after PRP administration in in vitro and animal studies. Furthermore, we review clinical trials of PRP efficiency in changing the OA biomarkers in knee joint.

Abstract
Cartilage breakdown, inflammation and pain are hallmark symptoms of osteoarthritis, and autologous blood products such as citrate-anticoagulated platelet-rich plasma (CPRP) or hyperacute serum (hypACT) have been developed as a regenerative approach to rebuild cartilage, inhibit inflammation and reduce pain. However, mechanisms of action of these blood derivatives are still not fully understood, in part due to the large number of components present in these medical products. In addition, the discovery of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their involvement in intercellular communication mediated by cargo molecules like microRNAs (miRNAs) opened up a whole new level of complexity in understanding blood products. In this study we focused on the development of an isolation protocol for EVs from CPRP and hypACT that can also deplete lipoproteins, which are often co-isolated in EV research due to shared physical properties. Several isolation methods were compared in terms of particle yield from CPRP and hypACT. To gain insights into the functional repertoire conveyed via EV-associated miRNAs, we performed functional enrichment analysis and identified NFκB signaling strongly targeted by CPRP EV miRNAs, whereas hypACT EV miRNAs affect IL6- and TGFβ/SMAD signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To explore the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection regarding functional recovery, pain relief, and range of motion (ROM) of shoulder compared with the corticosteroid injection in patients with rotator cuff lesions treated non-operatively. METHODS An electronic literature search was performed by 2 authors in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases to identify relevant randomized controlled trial (RCTs) that were published up to July 20, 2020. The quality of the included RCTs was evaluated using the approach recommended by the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Standardized mean differences (SMDs) or mean differences (MDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to calculate the pooled effect sizes. RESULTS Six RCTs were included in this systematic review. Meta-analysis revealed that corticosteroid injection yielded statistically significant superior functional recovery (SMD = -0.80; 95% CI, -1.42 to -0.18; P = .01) and pain relief (MD = 1.59; 95% CI, 0.30-2.89; P = .02) compared with PRP injection for rotator cuff lesions during the short-term follow-up period. However, at the medium-term and long-term follow-up, no statistically significant difference was identified between the 2 groups. Regarding the ROM of shoulder, no statistically significant difference was found between the 2 groups during the whole follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS The current clinical evidence revealed short-term efficacy of corticosteroid injection and no significant medium- to long-term difference between corticosteroid and PRP injection in the treatment of rotator cuff lesions. Additional studies with longer follow-ups, larger sample sizes, and more rigorous designs are needed to draw more reliable and accurate conclusions.

Abstract
Objective: The use of platelet concentrates (PCs) in oral and maxillofacial surgery, periodontology, and craniofacial surgery has been reported. While PCs provide a rich reservoir of autologous bioactive growth factors for tissue regeneration, their drawbacks include lack of utility for long-term application, low elastic modulus and strength, and limited storage capability. These issues restrict their broader application. This review focuses on the lyophilization of PCs (LPCs) and how this processing approach affects their biological and mechanical properties for application as a bioactive scaffold for craniofacial tissue regeneration. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive search of five electronic databases, including Medline, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus, was conducted from 1946 until 2019 using a combination of search terms relating to this topic. Results: Ten manuscripts were identified as being relevant. The use of LPCs was mostly studied in in vitro and in vivo craniofacial bone regeneration models. Notably, one clinical study reported the utility of LPCs for guided bone regeneration prior to dental implant placement. Conclusions: Lyophilization can enhance the inherent characteristics of PCs and extends shelf-life, enable their use in emergency surgery, and improve storage and transportation capabilities. In light of this, further preclinical studies and clinical trials are required, as LPCs offer a potential approach for clinical application in craniofacial tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The success rate of assisted reproduction techniques (ART) has long been less than satisfactory albeit the great progress made in recent years, demonstrating the need for alternative options in the ART cycles. Growing evidence correlates the effect of intrauterine platelet-rich plasma (PRP) infusion on the endometrium with reassuring reproductive results. Thus, in this review, we focus on the current clinical and mechanical evidence on PRP and its effect on endometrial receptivity, and assess the features, benefits and limitations of the current studies and potential risks of PRP in ART.

Abstract
Diabetic skin ulcer is one of the severe complications of diabetes mellitus, which has a high incidence and may cause death or disability. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is widely used in the treatment of diabetic wounds due to the effect of growth factors (GFs) derived from it. However, the relatively short half-life of GFs limits their applications in clinics. In addition, the presence of a large amount of proteases in the diabetic wound microenvironment results in the degradation of GFs, which further impedes angiogenesis and diabetic wound healing. In our study, we fabricated a self-healing and injectable hydrogel with a composite of chitosan, silk fibroin, and PRP (CBPGCTS-SF@PRP) for promoting diabetic wound healing. CBPGCTS-SF@PRP could protect PRP from enzymatic hydrolysis, release PRP sustainably, and enhance the chemotaxis of mesenchymal stem cells. The results showed that it could promote the proliferation of repair cells in vitro. Moreover, it could enhance wound healing by expediting collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and nerve repair in a type 2 diabetic rat model and a rat skin defect model. We hope that this study will offer a new treatment for diabetic nonhealing wounds in clinics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Topical platelet-rich plasma (PRP) must demonstrate stability to insure biologic activity in aesthetic medicine. OBJECTIVE The objective of this research was to evaluate the role of platelet homeostasis in a novel PRP topical cosmetic formulation to provide facial appearance improvement. METHODS The stability of the topical PRP formulation was evaluated in vitro followed by clinical in vivo testing. The in vitro evaluation examined platelet stability and morphology over a 90-day period within the preservative cosmetic base utilizing ELISA and light microscopy (LM)/scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The in vivo clinical study enrolled 20 subjects in a 120-day double blind split face study to evaluate the effect of 5–7x concentrated PRP compared to 2–3x concentrated PRP on facial photoaging. Cosmetic effect was evaluated by the subject and the dermatologist investigator on a 5-point ordinal scale at baseline, week 8, and week 16. RESULTS 90-day stability for the topical PRP formulation was verified via ELISA and LM/SEM. ELISA showed the PRP was more inactive than control conditions via analyte concentration curves (PDGF-AB, EGF, and P-Selectin). LM/SEM demonstrated the PRP had less aggregation/activation over time within the cosmetic base and that refrigeration is superior to room-temperature storage thus delaying full platelet degranulation. The in vivo clinical study demonstrated parity between 20ml and 60ml PRP in terms of clinical efficacy. CONCLUSION Platelets remain viable for up to 90 days in a refrigerated cosmetic vehicle with demonstrated topical clinical PRP facial benefits. PRP kits of 20ml and 60ml volumes for topical PRP are equally efficacious. J Drugs Dermatol. 2020;19(12): doi:10.36849/JDD.2020.5495.

Abstract
In this research, hWJ-MSCs were grown on silk scaffolds and induced towards chondrogenesis by supplementation with L-ascorbic acid (LAA) or platelet rich plasma (PRP). Silk scaffolds were fabricated with salt leaching method by mixing silk fibroin (SF) with silk spidroin (SS). The silk fibroin was obtained from Bombyx mori cocoon that had been degummed, and the silk spidroin was obtained from wild-type spider Argiope appensa. The effect of scaffold composition and inducer on cell proliferation was observed through MTT assay. The most optimal treatment then continued to be used to induce hWJ-MSC towards chondrogenic differentiation for 7 and 21 days. Scaffolds characterization showed that the scaffolds produced had 3D structure with interconnected pores, and all were biocompatible with hWJ-MSCs. Scaffold with the addition of 10% SS + 90% SF showed higher compressive strength and better pore interconnectivity in comparison to 100% silk fibroin scaffold. After 48 h, cells seeded on scaffold with spidroin and fibroin mix had flattened morphology in comparison to silk fibroin scaffold which appeared to be more rounded on the scaffold surface. Scaffold with 10% (w/w) of silk spidroin (SS) + 90% (w/w) of silk fibroin (SF) was the most optimal composition for cell proliferation. Immunocytochemistry of integrin β1 and RGD sequence, showed that scaffold with SS 10% provide better cell attachment with the presence of RGD sequence from the spidroin silk which could explain the higher cell proliferation than SF100% scaffold. Based on Alcian Blue staining and Collagen Type II immunocytochemistry (ICC), cells grown on 10% SS + 90% SF scaffold with 10% PRP supplementation were the most optimal to support chondrogenesis of hWJ-MSCs. These results showed that the addition of spidroin silk from A. appensa. had impact on scaffold compressive strength and chondrogenic differentiation of hWJ-MSC and had the potential for further development of bio-based material scaffold in cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
Engineering scaffolds combining natural biomineral and artificially synthesized material hold promising potential for bone tissue regeneration. We fabricated a bioengineering scaffold, oyster shell (OS) and alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-CSH) as scaffold, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as provider of growth factors and bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) as seed cells, and determined it could be applied as a new type of bone graft substitutes by rat calvarial defects repairing experiment in vitro and in vivo. SEM showed that the mean diameter of the pores was about 150 μm with a range of 50-200 μm, and scaffold's porosity was ~27.4% by Archimedes' Principle. In vitro, Scaffold + BMSCs + PRP group presented a higher ALP activity compared with other groups by ELISA (P < 0.05). But the expression of OC was not detectable on day 4 or 8. The MTT assay showed that the relative cell number of BMSCs+PRP group increased significantly (P < 0.05). In vivo, the smallest defect area of skull and highest volume of regenerated new bone were observed in Scaffold + PRP + BMSCs group by X-ray and Micro-CT analysis (P < 0.05). And the similar results also were observed in HE and Masson staining. The immunohistochemistry staining for osteogenic marker proteins ALP and OC showed that the most obvious positive staining was observed in Scaffold + PRP + BMSCs group (P < 0.05). The expression of inflammatory markers IL-6 and TNF-α was the lowest in control group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, a bioengineering scaffold based on OS, created by simply combining α-CSH and PRP and implanting with BMSCs, could be clinically useful and has marked advantages as a targeted, off-the-shelf, cell-loaded treatment option for the bone healing of critical-size calvarial defects.

Abstract
The complex biology of platelets and their involvement in tissue repair and inflammation have inspired the development of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies for a broad array of medical needs. However, clinical advances are hampered by the fact that PRP products, doses and treatment protocols are far from being standardized. Freeze-drying PRP (FD-PRP) preserves platelet function, cytokine concentration and functionality, and has been proposed as a consistent method for product standardization and fabrication of an off-the-shelf product with improved stability and readiness for future uses. Here, we present the current state of experimental and clinical FD-PRP research in the different medical areas in which PRP has potential to meet prevailing medical needs. A systematic search, according to PRISMA (Preferred Reported Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, showed that research is mostly focused on wound healing, i.e., developing combination products for ulcer management. Injectable hydrogels are investigated for lumbar fusion and knee conditions. In dentistry, combination products permit slow kinetics of growth factor release and functionalized membranes for guided bone regeneration.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy is a highly attractive strategy that promotes bone tissue regeneration. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the combination effect of muscle-derived mesenchymal stem cells (M-MSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on bone repair capacity in rabbits with large humeral bone defect. Precise cylindrical bone defects of 10 mm diameter and 5 mm depth were established in rabbit humeral bones, which were unable to be repaired under natural conditions. The rabbits received treatment with M-MSCs/PRP gel, M-MSCs gel, or PRP gel, or no treatment. The bone tissue regeneration was evaluated at day 0-90 after surgery by HE morphological staining, Lane-Sandhu histopathological scoring, tetracycline detection, Gomori staining and micro-computed tomography. Beyond that, Transwell assay, CCK8 assay, Western blot analysis and ALP activity detection were performed in M-MSCs in vitro with or without PRP application to detect the molecular effects of PRP on M-MSCs. We found that the repair effect of M-MSCs group or PRP group was limited and the bone defects were not completely closed at post-operation 90 d. In contrast, M-MSCs/PRP group received obvious filling in the bone defects with a Lane-Sandhu evaluation score of 9. Tetracycline-labeled new bone area in M-MSCs/PRP group and new mineralized bone area were significantly larger than that in other groups. Micro-computed tomography result of M-MSCs/PRP group displayed complete recovery of humeral bone at post-operation 90 d. Further in vitro experiment revealed that PRP significantly induced migration, enhanced the growth, and promoted the expression of Cbfa-1 and Coll I in M-MSCs. In conclusion, PRP application significantly enhanced the regeneration capacity of M-MSCs in large bone defect via promoting the migration and proliferation of M-MSCs, and also inducing the osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
In this study, the bone-regenerative potential of bioactive factors derived from adipose tissue, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and conditioned medium from hypoxia-treated human telomerase immortalized bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hTERT-MSC) was investigated in vitro with the aim to develop cost-effective and efficient bone substitutes for optimized regeneration of bone defects. Adipose tissue was harvested from human donors undergoing reconstructive surgery, and adipose tissue extract (ATE) was prepared. Platelet lysates (PL) were produced by repeated freeze-thaw cycles of PRP, and hypoxia-conditioned medium (HCM) was obtained by culturing human telomerase immortalized bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells for 5 days with 1% O2. Besides analysis by cytokine and angiogenesis arrays, ELISA was performed. Angiogenic potential was investigated in cocultures of bone-marrow-derived (BM)-MSC and human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Multiple angiogenic proteins and cytokines were detected in all growth factor mixtures. HCM and ATE contained high amounts of angiogenin and CCL2/MCP-1, whereas PL contained high amounts of IGFBP-1. Culturing cells with HCM and ATE significantly increased specific ALP activity of BM-MSC as well as tubule length and junctions of endothelial networks, indicating osteogenic and angiogenic stimulation. To achieve a synergism between chemoattractive potential and osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation capacity, a combination of different growth factors appears promising for potential clinical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein (IRAP), autologous processed plasma (APP), and sodium hyaluronate treatments on synovial fluid cells in vitro and on synovial fluid obtained from osteochondrotic joints of horses. SAMPLE Synovial fluid cells from 8 healthy equine tibiotarsal joints (in vitro experiment) and synovial fluid samples from 40 tibiotarsal joints of 25 horses with osteochondrosis dissecans (in vivo experiment). PROCEDURES Effects of various treatments on concentrations of prostaglandin (PG) E2, interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-10, and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) were analyzed in cell medium supernatant, and production of reactive oxygen species was analyzed by use of flow cytometry. In an in vivo experiment, synovial fluid samples were collected before and 48 hours after arthroscopy and treatment administration (8 joints/treatment) and evaluated to determine concentrations of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, PGE2, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1, IL-10, and IL-1ra. RESULTS All in vitro treatments reduced reactive oxygen species production, PRP increased PGE2 concentrations, and PRP, IRAP, and APP increased IL-1ra concentrations. Only IRAP and APP increased IL-1 concentrations. For the in vivo experiment, PRP increased and IRAP decreased PGE2 concentrations in synovial fluid after arthroscopy. All treatments increased IL-1ra concentrations, but only sodium hyaluronate resulted in a significant increase in concentration, compared with the concentration for untreated joints. Also, IRAP reduced hyaluronic acid breakdown in synovial fluid. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE PRP should be used with caution in the period immediately after arthroscopy and treatment of osteochondrotic joints of horses. All treatments had antioxidant effects. Sodium hyaluronate, APP, and IRAP might help ameliorate joint inflammation.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is rich in growth factors and has commonly been utilized in the repair and regeneration of damaged articular cartilage. However, the major drawbacks of direct PRP injection are unstable biological fixation and fast or burst release of growth factors. Fucoidan is a heparinoid compound that can bind growth factors to control their release rate. Furthermore, fucoidan can reduce arthritis through suppressing inflammatory responses and thus it has been reported to prevent the progression of osteoarthritis, promote bone regeneration and accelerate healing of cartilage injury. Injectable hydrogels can be used to deliver cells and growth factors for an alternative, less invasive treatment of cartilage defects. In this study, hyaluronic acid (HA) and fucoidan (FD) was blended with gelatin (GLT) and the GLT/HA/FD hybrid was further cross-linked with genipin (GP) to prepare injectable GP-GLT/HA/FD hydrogels. The gelation rate was affected by the GP, GLT, HA and FD concentrations, as well as the pH values. The addition of HA and FD to GLT networks improved the mechanical strength of the hydrogels and facilitated the sustained release of PRP growth factors. The GP-GLT/HA/FD hydrogel showed adequate injectability, shape-persistent property and strong adhesive ability, and was more resistant to enzymatic degradation. The PRP-loaded GP-GLT/HA/FD hydrogel promoted cartilage regeneration in rabbits, which may lead to an advanced PRP therapy for enhancing cartilage repair.

Abstract
Despite great advances in skin wound care utilizing grafting techniques, the resulting severe scarring, deformity and ineffective vascularization remains a challenge. Alternatively, tissue engineering of new skin using patient-derived stem cells and scaffolding materials promises to greatly increase the functional and aesthetic outcome of skin wound healing. This work focused on the optimization of a polyethylene glycol modified (PEGylated) platelet-rich plasma (PRP) hydrogel for the protracted release of cytokines, growth factors, and signaling molecules and also the delivery of a provisional physical framework for stem cell angiogenesis. Freshly collected whole blood was utilized to synthesize PEGylated PRP hydrogels containing platelet concentrations ranging from 0 to 200,000 platelets/µl. Hydrogels were characterized using thromboelastography and impedance aggregometry for platelet function and were visualized using scanning electron microscopy. To assess the effects of PEGylated PRP hydrogels on cells, PRP solutions were seeded with human adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) prior to gelation. Following 14 days of incubation in vitro, increased platelet concentrations resulted in higher ASC proliferation and vascular gene and protein expression (assessed via RT-PCR, ELISA, and immunochemistry). Using a rat skin excision model, wounds treated with PRP + ASC hydrogels increased the number of vessels in the wound by day 8 (80.2 vs. 62.6 vessels/mm2) compared to controls. In conclusion, the proposed PEGylated PRP hydrogel promoted both in vitro and transient in vivo angiogenesis of ASCs for improved wound healing. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings support an innovative means of cellular therapy intervention to improve surgical wound healing in a normal wound model. ASCs seeded within PEGylated PRP could be an efficacious and completely autologous therapy for treating patients who have poorly healing wounds caused by vascular insufficiency, previous irradiation, or full-thickness burns. Because wound healing is a dynamic and complex process, the application of more than one growth factor with ASCs demonstrates an advantageous way of improving healing.

Abstract
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is blood plasma with a platelet concentration above baseline. When activated, PRP releases growth factors involved in all stages of wound healing, potentially boosting the healing process. To expand our knowledge of the effectiveness of PRP, it is crucial to know the content and composition of PRP products. In this study, growth factor quantification measurements of PRP from burn patients and gender- and age-matched controls were performed. The PRP of burn patients showed levels of growth factors comparable to those of the PRP of healthy volunteers. Considerable intra-individual variation in growth factor content was found. However, a correlation was found between the platelet count of the PRP and most of the growth factors measured.

Abstract
Stem cell-based therapy is a promising approach to treat cartilage lesions and clinical benefits have been reported in a number of studies. However, the efficacy of cell injection procedures may be impaired by cell manipulation and damage as well as by cell dissemination to non-target tissues. To overcome such issues, mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) delivery may be performed using injectable vehicles as containment systems that further provide a favorable cell microenvironment. The aim of this systematic review was to analyze the preclinical and clinical literature on platelet-rich plasma (PRP), hyaluronic acid (HA), and hydrogels for the delivery of MSCs. The systematic literature search was performed using the PubMed and Web of science databases with the following string: "(stem cells injection) AND (platelet rich plasma OR PRP OR platelet concentrate OR biomaterials OR hyaluronic acid OR hydrogels)": 40 studies (19 preclinical and 21 clinical) met the inclusion criteria. This review revealed an increasing interest on the use of injectable agents for MSC delivery. However, while negligible adverse events and promising clinical outcomes were generally reported, the prevalence of low quality studies hinders the possibility to demonstrate the real benefits of using such injectable systems. Specific studies must be designed to clearly demonstrate the added benefits of these systems to deliver MSCs for the treatment of cartilage lesions and osteoarthritis.

Abstract
In this study, the stability of a novel autologous topical serum (ATS) derived from plasma rich in growth factors technology (PRGF) has been evaluated. As skin ages, mechanical, protective and restorative properties decrease leading to multiple clinical conditions. In recent years, topical administration of growth factors has emerged as a promising therapeutic alternative to promote wound healing and skin regeneration. Determination of stability is a crucial step in the formulation process in order to develop an effective product. Blood from 8 healthy donors was harvested and the autologous topical serum was obtained. Resulting ATS samples were either kept fresh or stored for 1, 2, and 3 months at 4ºC. Physical properties and growth factor content were determined in ATS samples at each time of storage. The effect on human dermal fibroblast proliferation and the sterility of the samples was also studied. All the analyzed parameters remained stable along the storage time while pH values increased slightly with respect to fresh samples. No microbial contamination was detected in any of the samples. Preservation of the autologous topical serum up to 3 months under refrigeration does not affect either its physical or mechanical properties or neither alters the growth factors´ composition, thus preserving its biological potential. This achievement enables patients with chronic disorders to maintain their treatment with a lower frequency of blood extractions without affecting the efficacy of PRGF therapy.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the trochlear bone and cartilaginous regeneration of rabbits using the association of PRP, chitosan, and hydroxyapatite. Hole was made in rabbit troches, one hole in each animal remained empty (group C), and one was filled by a combination of PRP, chitosan, and hydroxyapatite (group T). Clinical-orthopedic, radiographic, and histomorphometric evaluations were performed. Clinical-orthopedic evaluation showed lameness of two members of the T group and one member of group C. The radiographic evaluation showed that the T group showed absence of subchondral bone reaction (33%). The presence of moderate subchondral bone reaction was more frequently reported in group C with 67%. Microscopic evaluation revealed a presence of tissue neoformation, composed of connective tissue. Microscopic findings were similar in both groups, with a difference in the amount of neoformed tissue being perceptible, which was confirmed after the morphometric analysis, which revealed a significant difference in the quantity of newly formed tissue at the bone/cartilage/implant interface. The composite base of the association of chitosan, hydroxyapatite, and platelet-rich plasma favored bone and cartilage healing.

Abstract
Bioprinting has emerged as a promising tool in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Various 3D printing strategies have been developed to enable bioprinting of various biopolymers and hydrogels. However, the incorporation of biological factors has not been well explored. As the importance of personalized medicine is becoming more clear, the need for the development of bioinks containing autologous/patient-specific biological factors for tissue engineering applications becomes more evident. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is used as a patient-specific source of autologous growth factors that can be easily incorporated to hydrogels and printed into 3D constructs. PRP contains a cocktail of growth factors enhancing angiogenesis, stem cell recruitment, and tissue regeneration. Here, the development of an alginate-based bioink that can be printed and crosslinked upon implantation through exposure to native calcium ions is reported. This platform can be used for the controlled release of PRP-associated growth factors which may ultimately enhance vascularization and stem cell migration.

Abstract
Reports on clinical uses of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) have dramatically increased in the last decade. Indications for PRP therapy range from muscle and skeletal injuries to hair re-growth. More recently evidences have shown its positive effects in promoting endometrial and follicular growth and gestation in assisted reproduction cycles. We discuss the putative role of PRP on endometrial receptivity, with a brief history of its applications in research and clinical therapies. Despite its widespread uses in medicine, the mechanisms through which PRP exerts its regenerative effects are only postulated, not based on scientific data. There is an unmet need for advanced research to corroborate present findings in the clinical scenario.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is widely used for a variety of clinical applications. However, clinical outcome studies have not consistently shown positive effects. The composition of PRP differs based on many factors. An improved understanding of factors influencing the composition of PRP is important for the optimization of PRP use. HYPOTHESIS Age and sex influence the PRP composition in healthy patients. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Blood from 39 healthy patients was collected at a standardized time and processed into leukocyte-poor PRP within 1 hour of collection using the same laboratory centrifuge protocol and frozen for later analysis. Eleven female and 10 male patients were "young" (aged 18-30 years), while 8 male and 10 female patients were "older" (aged 45-60 years). Thawed PRP samples were assessed for cytokine and growth factor levels using a multiplex assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The platelet count and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels were measured. Two-way analysis of variance determined age- and sex-based differences. RESULTS Platelet and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein concentrations were similar in PRP between the groups ( P = .234). Male patients had higher cytokine and growth factor levels in PRP compared with female patients for inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) (9.83 vs 7.71 pg/mL, respectively; P = .008) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) (131.6 vs 110.5 pg/mL, respectively; P = .048); the anti-inflammatory IL-1 receptor antagonist protein (IRAP) (298.0 vs 218.0 pg/mL, respectively; P < .001); and growth factors such as fibroblast growth factor-basic (FGF-basic) (237.9 vs 194.0 pg/mL, respectively; P = .01), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) (3296.2 vs 2579.3 pg/mL, respectively; P = .087), and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) (118.8 vs 92.8 ng/mL, respectively; P = .002). Age- but not sex-related differences were observed for insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) ( P < .001). Age and sex interaction terms were not significant. While mean differences were significant, there was also substantial intragroup variability. CONCLUSION This study in healthy patients shows differences in the composition of PRP between men and women, with sex being a greater factor than age. There was also proteomic variability within the groups. These data support a personalized approach to PRP treatment and highlight the need for a greater understanding of the relationships between proteomic factors in PRP and clinical outcomes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Variability in the proteomic profile of PRP may affect tissue and clinical responses to treatment. These data suggest that clinical studies should account for the composition of PRP used.

Abstract
The repair of articular cartilage injury is a great clinical challenge. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has attracted much attention for the repair of articular cartilage injury, because it contains various growth factors that are beneficial for wound repair. However, current administration methods of PRP have many shortcomings, such as unstable biological fixation and burst release of growth factors, all of which complicate its application in the repair of articular cartilage and compromise its therapeutic efficacy. In this study, based on our previously reported photoinduced imine crosslinking (PIC) reaction, we developed an in situ photocrosslinkable PRP hydrogel glue (HNPRP) through adding a photoresponsive hyaluronic acid (HA-NB) which could generate aldehyde groups upon light irradiation and subsequently react with amino groups, into autologous PRP. Our study showed that HNPRP hydrogel glue was cytocompatible and could be conveniently and rapidly prepared in situ, forming a robust hydrogel scaffold. In addition, our results demonstrated that HNPRP hydrogel not only achieved controlled release of growth factors, but also showed strong tissue adhesive ability. Therefore, HNPRP hydrogel was quite suitable for cartilage defect regeneration. Our further in vitro experiment showed that HNPRP hydrogel could promote the proliferation and migration of chondrocytes and bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs). In vivo testing using a rabbit full-thickness cartilage defect model demonstrated that HNPRP hydrogel could achieve integrative hyaline cartilage regeneration and its therapeutic efficacy was better than thrombin activated PRP gel. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE In this study, we have developed a photocrosslinkable platelet rich plasma (PRP) - complexed hydrogel glue (HNPRP) for cartilage regeneration. The in situ formed HNPRP hydrogel glue showed not only the controlled release ability of growth factors, but also strong tissue adhesiveness, which could resolve the current problems in clinical application of PRP. Furthermore, HNPRP hydrogel glue could promote integrative hyaline cartilage regeneration, and its reparative efficacy for cartilage defect was better than thrombin activated PRP gel. This study provided not only an effective repair material for cartilage regeneration, but also developed an advanced method for PRP application.

Abstract
AIM To determine the quantitative and qualitative composition of growth factors (PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, VEGF, VEGF-D, FGF-acid, FGF-basic) and platelets in various modifications of APRP. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blood of 12 male volunteers (control group) and 12 patients with ED was used to prepare APRP and the subsequently determine the concentration of growth factors. The growth factor concentrations (FGF acid, FGF basic, PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, VEGF, VEGF-D) was determined using a flow cytometry-based xMAP Luminex (Gen-Probe) system. RESULTS Concentration of platelets in APRP obtained by two stage centrifugation, reached 1480 (1120-1644) in the control group and 1232 (956-1502) in patients with ED. The concentration of growth factors in the samples prepared without preliminary freezing was: PDGF-AA 842 (22-3700), PDGF-BB 2837 (1460-4100), FGF-basic 7.9 (0.28-127), FGF-acid 3, 4 (0.14-11), VEGF 19 (4.6-46), VEGF-D 21 (14-38). After thawing, the concentration of all growth factors in the samples increased. DISCUSSION The study findings suggest that the mechanism of erectile function recovery following the use of APRP is through the active substances detected in APRP, i.e. FGF-basic, PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, VEGF, VEGF-D and FGF-acid. Also, the study showed that the content of growth factors in APRP after of freezing/thawing is higher than in APRP that has not been frozen. This is due to the cell membrane destruction at extremely low temperatures during freezing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained growing popularity in use in spinal fusion procedures in the last decade. Substantial intraoperative blood loss is frequently accompanied with spinal fusion, and it is unknown whether blood harvested intraoperatively qualifies for PRP preparation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Whole blood was harvested intraoperatively and venous blood was collected by venipuncture. Then, we investigated the platelet concentrations in whole blood and PRP, the concentration of growth factors in PRP, and the effects of PRP on the proliferation and viability of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs). RESULTS Our results revealed that intraoperatively harvested whole blood and whole blood collected by venipuncture were similar in platelet concentration. In addition, PRP formulations prepared from both kinds of whole blood were similar in concentration of platelet and growth factors. Additional analysis showed that the similar concentrations of growth factors resulted from the similar platelet concentrations of whole blood and PRP between the two groups. Moreover, these two kinds of PRP formulations had similar effects on promoting cell proliferation and enhancing cell viability. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, intraoperatively harvested whole blood may be a potential option for preparing PRP spinal fusion.

Abstract
Objectives Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) is an autologous fibrin glue, produced from patients' blood, which, besides intraoperative use, has applications in the treatment of infected wounds. The combination with antimicrobial agents results in a prolonged antibacterial effect allowing for wound dressing change intervals of seven days even in infected wounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate release kinetics of amikacin, teicoplanin or polyhexanide from a PRF-layer. Methods PRF mixed with teicoplanin, amikacin or polyhexanide was sprayed on a silicon gauze patch and put on a colombia agar with bacteria with known minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and incubated for 24 hours and afterwards transferred to another agar with the same bacterial strain. Inhibition zones were measured every 24 hours. This was repeated on 7 consecutive days. Antibiotic concentrations were calculated by interpolation. Results More than 1000 mg/L teicoplanin were released within the first 24 hours and 28.22 mg/L after 168 hours. Amikacin release was above 10,000 mg/L within the first 24 hours and still 120.8 mg/L after 120 hours. A release of polyhexanide could be verified for the first 24 hours only. Consequently teicoplanin and amikacin released from PRF showed antimicrobial in-vitro effects for almost a week, whereas an antimicrobial effect of polyhexanide could only be verified for the first 24 hours. Conclusions Our Results show that a weekly dressing regimen may be justified in wounds treated with PRF plus amikacin or teicoplanin, since bacteria will be eradicated over a considerable period of time after a single application of PRF.
