Synergistic effects of the combined use of human-cultured periosteal sheets and platelet-rich fibrin on bone regeneration: An animal study.

ABSTRACT: A human-cultured alveolar bone-derived periosteal (hCP) sheet is an osteogenic grafting material used clinically in periodontal regenerative therapy, while platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a platelet concentrate with fibrin clot, is considered to augment the wound healing process. Therefore, whether the combined use of hCP-PRF complex could facilitate bone regeneration synergistically was evaluated in animal models. Human periosteal segments (1 × 1 mm) were cultured initially on plastic dishes and formed an hCP sheet. The hCP sheet was implanted with freshly prepared human PRF into subcutaneous tissue (hCP: n = 4, hCP + PRF: n = 4) and 4 mm diameter calvarial bone defect models (hCP: n = 4, hCP + PRF: n = 4, control [defect-only]: n = 4) that prepared in nude mice. At 4 weeks postimplantation, new bone formation was evaluated by using ?CT. Cell growth and neovascularization were evaluated by histochemical and immunohistological methods. In the subcutaneous tissue, mineral deposit formation, collagen deposition, and number of vessels were higher in the hCP + PRF group than in the hCP alone group. In the calvarial defect models, new bone formation was significantly higher in the hCP + PRF group than in the hCP alone group and defect-only control group. The numbers of vessels and PCNA-positive cells in calvarial defects were also increased in the hCP + PRF group more than in the hCP alone group. Platelet-rich fibrin preparations support the proliferation and the growth of periosteal cells to form well-combined active biological materials. Platelet-rich fibrin also stimulates the local angiogenesis in the implantation site. Therefore, the combined use of hCP and PRF could be clinically applicable in bone regeneration therapy.

Project description:Objective: Recently, liquid platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a rich source of concentrated platelets and growth factors, has emerged as a promising agent for stimulating tissue regeneration. However, its specific efficacy in chondrocyte proliferation and cartilage regeneration remains underexplored. To address this question, we investigated liquid PRF obtained through horizontal centrifugation and compared its effects with hyaluronic acid (HA), a high molecular weight glucosamine supplement widely used in clinical practice to safeguard against chondral damage. Materials and Methods: Liquid PRF, produced using horizontal centrifugation (liquid H-PRF) at 500 g for 8 min, served as our experimental agent. We conducted cell viability and proliferation assays using PRF-conditioned medium. We assessed the chondrocyte phenotype of ATDC5 cells through toluidine blue and alcian blue staining, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining. Furthermore, we examined the expression of genes involved in inflammation through RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Results: Liquid H-PRF exerted notable effects on chondrocytes, influencing proliferation, inflammatory responses, and chondrogenic differentiation. The H-PRF group displayed significantly higher expression of chondrogenic markers, including Col2a1, compared to HA-treated cells, whereas aggrecan expression was significantly higher in the HA group. PRF also demonstrated the ability to reduce inflammatory levels in chondrogenic ATDC5 cells, and this effect was further enhanced when PRF from the buffy coat zone was added. In comparison, chondrocytes cultured in the HA group produced significantly fewer inflammatory factors than those in the PRF group, as confirmed qualitatively by Western blot analysis. Conclusion: Liquid H-PRF emerged as a potent stimulator for chondrogenesis and a regulator of the inflammatory response, achieving levels similar to HA. Moreover, liquid H-PRF exhibited strong potential for enhancing the production of cartilage extracellular matrix and promoting chondrogenic regeneration with notably increased Col2a1 levels. Future research should encompass animal studies and human trials to further evaluate the comparative effectiveness of liquid PRF versus HA, potentially as an alternative or complementary strategy for future clinical applications.
