Feasibility of improving platelet-rich plasma therapy by using chitosan with high platelet activation ability

Abstract: Abstract. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is blood plasma containing a high number of platelets that release growth factors for wound healing and tissue regeneration. In the present study, the feasibility of improving PRP therapy by using chitosan that exhibits high platelet activation ability was investigated. A total of 13 chitosan samples with different molecular weight (Mw) and degree of deacetylation (DDA) were individually added to blood samples of rats and the amount of growth factors, albumin and fibrinogen… Show more

“…platelet-rich plasma (prp) is blood plasma with a significant amount of platelets that release the growth factors for wound healing and tissue regeneration. prp preparation is a procedure with minimal technical costs, and extensive use in stimulating tissue regeneration in different areas of medicine (9). activated platelets release more than 300 active agents from their intracellular granules, contain many cytokines, mitogens, anti-inflammatory factors, and other bioactive molecules, which are essential regulators in a complicated microenvironment of the regenerative process, which enhance the healing process.…”

“…platelet-rich plasma became widely used in clinical practice because a high concentration of growth factors should promote better tissue regeneration (4,13,17). Despite a large number of studies devoted to PRP effect on intestinal anastomosis regeneration, still, the impact of autoplasma on adhesion and different methods of PRP application is not well established (5,9). as a rule, soaking the intestinal walls with prp precedes the anastomosis formation (13,14), although injected PRP, which proved to be highly effective in other areas of medicine (17,18,19,20), has not been applied to the intestinal anastomosis.…”

Despite a large number of studies devoted to PRP effect on intestinal anastomosis regeneration, still the impact of auto-plasma on adhesion and different methods of PRP application are underdeveloped 7,8 . As a rule, soaking the intestinal walls with PRP is followed by anastomosis 5,9 , although injected PRP, which proved to be highly effective in other areas of medicine 5,[10][11][12] , has not been applied to intestinal anastomosis.…”

“…Furthermore, chitosan has biological properties such as hemostatic activity, antibacterial activity, and ability to accelerate wound healing 8 . Thereby, it is being used in many medical devices and health-care products 9 . Recently, several reports have shown the usefulness and effectiveness of chitosan for postpartum hemorrhage 10,11 .…”
