Cartilage repair is a challenging clinical problem because the damage is an irreversible condition. Many studies had been performed using several kinds of natural or synthetic scaffold. Attempts to repair articular cartilage using scaffold usually found many problems, lacks the physical structure and mechanical properties necessary to ensure long-term efficacy to cartilage defect. Furthermore, scaffold frequently cause toxicity to the host. Therefore, this study was performed in vitro to test the toxicity effect of scaffold freeze dried bovine cartilage powder and platelets Rich Plasma (PRP). This research was conducted using pure experimental research design in 4 groups of animal stem cells which being added with scaffold freeze dried bovine cartilage scaffold provided with platelet rich plasma. This study using posttest only control group design. The result being processed with MTT assay and spectrophotometer for counting the viable stem cells. There was no significant difference in the amount of macrophage between control and the freeze dried bovine cartilage scaffold provided with PRP (p=0,128). With this result in the number of macrophages between the control with freeze dried bovine cartilage scaffold provided PRP, it can be concluded that these biomaterials have biocompatibility.

The purpose of this systematic review was to address the treatment of rotator cuff tears by applying tissue engineering approaches to improve tendon healing, specifically platelet rich plasma (PRP) augmentation, stem cells, and scaffolds. Our systematic search was performed using the combination of the following terms: “rotator cuff”, “shoulder”, “PRP”, “platelet rich plasma”, “stemcells”, “scaffold”, “growth factors”, and “tissue engineering”. No level I or II studies were found on the use of scaffolds and stem cells for rotator cuff repair. Three studies compared rotator cuff repair with or without PRP augmentation. All authors performed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with different techniques of suture anchor fixation and different PRP augmentation. The three studies found no difference in clinical rating scales and functional outcomes between PRP and control groups. Only one study showed clinical statistically significant difference between the two groups at the 3-month followup. Any statistically significant difference in the rates of tendon rerupture between the control group and the PRP group was found using the magnetic resonance imaging. The current literature on tissue engineering application for rotator cuff repair is scanty. Comparative studies included in this review suggest that PRP augmented repair of a rotator cuff does not yield improved functional and clinical outcome compared with non-augmented repair at a medium and long-term followup.

Our aim was to study the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the proliferation of bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and to investigate their roles in the healing of experimental burn injury and the possible mechanism of action. Our work was divided into in-vitro and in-vivo studies. The in-vitro study included untreated MSCs and MSCs treated with PRP. Levels of TGF-β and cell proliferation were assessed. In the in-vivo study, 72 rats were distributed equally among 6 groups: control, burn, burn with MSCs, burn with PRP, burn with both MSCs and PRP, and burn with MSCs pretreated with PRP. On the 7th and 20th day after injury, the serum levels of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), as well as interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in skin tissue were measured by ELISA; histopathology and gene expression of MMP-1, TIMP-2, Ang-1, Ang-2, and vimentin by real-time PCR were performed in all groups. In vitro: proliferation of MSCs and TGF-β increased in the PRP-treated group compared with the control group. In vivo: Ang-1, Ang-2, and vimentin were upregulated, whereas MMP-1 and TIMP-2 were downregulated. TGF-β and IL-10 were increased, whereas TNF-α was decreased in all treated groups with more significance in MSCs and PRP on day 20. Histopathology of burn skin was improved in all treated groups, particularly in MSCs pretreated with PRP 20 days post-burn.

Background: VEGF-A expression of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) can induce the angiogenesis process of dental pulp regeneration. This in vitro study aimed to analyze the effect of various concentrations of Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) conditioned media (CM) on the increased expression of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) of hDPSCs. Methods: hDPSCs were collected from ten third molars extracted from nine healthy donors, cultured, and then harvested at the end of the third passage. The hDPSCs were seeded in four different CM (control group: hDPSCs + DMEM; 1% A-PRF CM group: hDPSCs + 1% A-PRF CM; 5% A-PRF CM group: hDPSCs + 5% A-PRF CM; 10% A-PRF CM group: hDPSCs + 10% A-PRF CM). All of the groups were cultured in biological triplicates (Triplo) and observed for 5, 12, and 24 hours. The VEGF-A protein expression of hDPSCs was measured using human VEGF-A ELISA at a wavelength of 405 nm. Data was analyzed with Kruskal Wallis and post hoc Mann Whitney test with p<0.05. Results: The VEGF-A expression rate of hDPSCs among all groups was statistically significantly different at 5, 12 and 24 hours of observations (p<0.05). Post hoc analysis test showed a statistically significant difference of hDPSCs’s VEGF-A expression between 5% A-PRF groups compared to other groups at 5 and 12 hours of observation (p<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences observed of hDPSCs’ VEGF-A expression at 24 hours of observation between 1%, 5% and 10% A-PRF groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: 5% A-PRF CM was superior in increasing VEGF-A expression of hDPSCs at 5, 12 and 24 hours of observations.

Perinatal mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), for example, from amniotic membrane, have advantages over adult sources, such as bone marrow, in terms of ease of availability, cell naivety, tissue stem cell abundance, high capacity of proliferation, and less donor site morbidity, because it does not require invasive procedures. Natural polymer scaffolds, such as gelatin and alginate, are biocompatible. Combination of stem cells from amniotic membrane (hAMSCs) and gelatin or alginate as scaffold can be promising. However, cytotoxicity comparison of gelatin and alginate to hAMSCs has not been widely studied. This study was aimed to compare cytotoxicity of gelatin and alginate on hAMSCs in vitro. Isolation and culture were performed on hAMSCs of the healthy full-term pregnancy. In passage 4, Flow Cytometry CD90, CD105, and CD73 phenotype characterization was done. Colorimetric assay of 3-(4,5-dimethythiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) was performed to measure the cytotoxicity. There were three sample groups: (control group) hAMSCs with alpha-minimum essential medium (α-MEM) solution as control; (gelatin group) hAMSCs with gelatin; (alginate group) hAMSCs with alginate. Each group consisted of 12 samples. Flow cytometry of hAMSCs expressed 28.78% CD90, 36.95% CD105, and 44.41% CD73 surface markers. No sample depicted toxicity in either gelatin or alginate group, and this is indicated by the average percentage of living cells in gelatin 97.26% and in alginate 98.43%. No statistically significant difference (ρ=0.057) of cytotoxicity was found between gelatin and alginate to hAMSCs. Gelatin and alginate were nontoxic to hAMSCs in vitro.
