Popis: Intra-articular injections of autologous platelet concentrates are considered capable to enhance the healing of cartilage lesions, alleviate joint inflammation, and relieve other musculoskeletal pathological conditions. The aim of this study was to analyze the soluble fractions obtained from platelet-rich plasma (pure- and leukocyte-PRP) to compare time- and preparation-dependent modifications of growth factor concentrations and the supporting activity of the two preparations on synovial fibroblast growth and hyaluronic acid (HA) production in vitro. The release kinetics of FGF-2, SDF-1, VEGF, HGF, EGF, PD GF-AB/BB, IGF-1, VCAM-1, and TGF-β isoforms were followed up to 168 h after PRP activation, and their amounts were determined by multiplex-beads immunoassay. Synovial cell growth and supernatant HA production were respectively analyzed by Alamar Blue assay and ELISA. Time-dependent modifications grouped molecules in three peculiar patterns: one reaching the highest concentrations within 18 h and decreasing afterwards, another progressively increasing up to 168 h, and the last peaking at the central time points. Synovial fibroblast growth in response to L-PRP and P-PRP revealed differences over time and among added concentrations. Both preparations displayed a preserved supporting capacity of HA synthesis.
