The Effects of Leukocyte- and Platelet-Rich Plasma (L-Prp) and Pure Platelet-Rich Plasma (P-Prp) in a Rat Endometriosis Model

Platelet Rich Plasma ( PRP ) Therapy

Molloy, et. al., (2003) address specific growth factors encountered in ligament and tendon healing. After reading about the factors found in superficial wounds, above, these should appear familiar, including: Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)—produced shortly after tendon injury, stimulates production of other growth factors such as IGF-1, and is involved in the tissue remodeling phase of h...

Tissue Engineering: Oromaxillofacial reconstruction with platelet rich plasma (PRP)

Classification of platelet concentrates: from pure platelet-rich plasma (P-PRP) to leucocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF).

The topical use of platelet concentrates is recent and its efficiency remains controversial. Several techniques for platelet concentrates are available; however, their applications have been confusing because each method leads to a different product with different biology and potential uses. Here, we present classification of the different platelet concentrates into four categories, depending o...
