Enhance Wound Healing

Background: Delayed healing of diabetic wounds has been well-documented. Currently, the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has attracted great attention in many medical fields including wound healing. Aim: Histological, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural evaluation of the effect of PRP on wound healing in the tongue of normal and Streptozotocin-induced diabetic albino rats. Methodology: A total number of 108 adult male albino rats with average weight 200gm, were used in the study. The animals were classified into two main groups: non-diabetic and diabetic groups. Each group was further divided into three subgroups: non- treated wound, PRP-treatment before wound, and PRP-treatment after wound. Tongue specimens were dissected on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7. The specimens were examined histologically by H&E, immunohistochemically by p63 and vimentin, and ultra-structurally by TEM. Results:  The most accelerated wound healing was revealed in the subgroups treated with PRP before the wound, whether non-diabetic or diabetic, which occurred very early at the 3rd day postoperative in both cases. While complete wound healing was revealed at the 7th day postoperative in both the non-diabetic and diabetic subgroups treated with PRP after the wound, which was like the non-diabetic control subgroup. Whilst, the diabetic non-treated subgroup only showed partial wound healing at the 7th day postoperative. Conclusion: A single injection of PRP could be used as a prophylactic to prevent expected impaired wound healing in diabetic oral mucosal wounds and to enhance wound healing in non-diabetic wounds. PRP could be used as a therapeutic to enhance wound healing in diabetic and non-diabetic oral mucosal wounds.

Context. Nature assumes imperative part in managing both acute and chronic ailments. Cnestis ferruginea is one of the sources of healing prowlers in traditional medicine practice for the treatment of wounds. Nonetheless, there are no scientific reports archived so far on the wound management activity of this plant. Objective. To establish the wound management property of a hydroethanolic Cnestis ferruginea leaf extract (CFHE). Materials and Methods. The wound area was measured after excision at the dorsal part of the Albino rats, and after treatment with 5–15% w / w CFHE ointments for 14 days. Absorbances of platelet-rich plasma treated with 0.8–100 mg/mL CFHE and an aggregating agent were spectrophotometrically determined in an in vitro platelet aggregation test. Wound tissue histopathology of CFHE ointment-treated animals revealed angiogenesis, reepithelialization, deposition of collagen, and granular tissue formation in wound tissues. Reduction in thigh oedema and pain threshold, in 7-day-old chicks, were assessed by carrageenan-induced oedema and Randall-Sellito pressure models, respectively. By the Agar diffusion method, bacterial growth inhibition by a 15% w / w CFHE ointment was investigated on Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus. Aureus, and Streptococcus pyogenes. Results. All concentrations of CFHE ointment significantly reduced ( p < 0.0001 ) wound area by 29–41% posttreatment. CFHE (1.6–100 mg/ml) promoted platelet aggregation ( p ≤ 0.0001 ) by 37–67% (IC50: 3.1–6.2 mg/ml). There were improved wound tissue reepithelization, fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis, and collagen deposition with 15% CFHE ointment treatment. CFHE ointment significantly ( p ≤ 0.0001 ) and dose-dependently reduced thigh oedema and showed a significant ( p ≤ 0.05 ) analgesic effect. In vitro, 15% CFHE ointment caused >100% growth inhibition of selected bacteria. Conclusion. The hydroethanolic leaf extract of Cnestis ferruginea possesses wound healing, platelet aggregation, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antimicrobial properties and, hence, could be effective in the management of open and some closed wounds.

Abstract Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common health problem. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been recognized to enhance articular cartilage metabolism. Aim of the work the study was designed to investigate the influence of PRP on cartilage healing after induction of arthritis. Material and methods Forty two adult male albino rats were used in this study. The rats were randomly divided into three groups: Group I (n = 18): the control group (Ia, Ib & Ic) Ib & Ic were injected intra-articularly with saline and left for 3 and 6 weeks. Group II (n = 12): arthritic group, in which osteoarthritis was induced by injection of 0.02ml 5% formaldehyde once in the right knee joints, left without treatment, and were sacrificed after three weeks (IIa) or after six weeks (IIb). Group III(n = 12): arthritis was induced as group II, one week later, the rats were intra-articularly injected with single dose of 0.3ml PRP in the same joint then were sacrificed three weeks (IIIa) or six weeks (IIIb) after formaldehyde injection. At the end of the study the right knee joints were taken, decalcified then processed for paraffin sections to be examined by light microscope using H&E, toluidine blue and Masson’s trichrome (MTC) stains. Immunohistochemistry for caspase-3 enzyme was done to demonstrate apoptotic chondrocytes. Morphometric study was conducted to measure the thickness of the non-calcified cartilage, count the chondrocytes and synovial membrane inflammatory cells and Mankin's score. Then statistical analysis was done. Results The arthritic groups revealed irregular surface of the articular cartilage, loss of the articular matrix and bone eburnation. Moreover, there was apparent hypocellularity and disorganization of the chondrocytes. Osteoclasts and osteoblasts were seen invading the osteochondral junction. MTC stained sections of the synovial membrane showed deposition of thick collagen bundles with heavy inflammatory cell infiltrate and numerous blood vessels. The affinity of the articular cartilage to toluidine blue stain was apparently decreased while caspase-3 immunoreactivity was apparent in many chondrocytes .Group IIIa demonstrated almost similar histological findings as the control group; regular articular cartilage surface with regularly arranged chondrocytes in the different cartilage zones. Synovial membrane illustrated minimal inflammatory cell infiltrate with thin collagen bundles and small blood vessels in MTC stained sections. There was high affinity of the articular cartilage to the toluidine blue stain and few chondrocytes showed positive caspase-3 immunoreactivity. Group IIIb revealed continuous surface of the articular cartilage, yet with minimal fibrillation in some areas. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts were seen invading the calcified cartilage. Synovial membrane showed deposition of dense collagen bundles with some inflammatory cell infiltrate. Toluidine blue sections revealed decreased articular cartilage affinity to the stain while caspase-3 immunoreactivity was evident in many chondrocytes. The morphometric results and statistical analysis confirmed the histological findings. Conclusion Intra-articular injection of PRP demonstrated advantageous role on articular cartilage healing, however, these effects appeared to be transient. So the need of multiple injections of PRP has to be considered in cases of OA.

Critical Bone Defects

The high costs and extensive time needed for the treatment of critical-sized bone defects are still major clinical concerns in orthopedic surgery; therefore, researchers continue to look for more cost and time-effective methods. This study aims to investigate the effects of a decellularized omentum scaffold with a combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and mesenchymal stem cells on the healing of critical-sized bone defects. Wistar albino rats (n = 30) were investigated in five groups. Critical-sized bone defects were formed on bilateral radius shafts. No scaffold, decellularized omentum, omentum with PRP and omentum + mesenchymal stem cells was used in group 1 (control group), 2, 3 and 4, respectively. In addition, omentum with a combination of mesenchymal stem cells +PRP was used in group 5. After 6 weeks, both radiological and histological healing were evaluated comparatively among the groups. After the use of a decellularized omentum scaffold, vitality of new cells was maintained, and new bone formation occurred. When compared to the control group, radiological healing was significantly better (p = 0.047) in the omentum and omentum + PRP-treated groups. Furthermore, histological healing was better in the omentum and omentum + PRP-treated groups than the control group (p = 0.001). The use of a decellularized omentum scaffold is suitable in the healing of critical bone defects.
