چکیده
For over 20 years, autologous blood products, such as plateletrich plasma (PRP) have been employed as a means to facilitate the healing process. Platelet-rich plasma has been advocated as a way to introduce increased concentrations of growth factors and other bioactive molecules to injured tissues in an attempt to optimize the local healing environment. This article reviews the basic principles involved in creating PRP and outlines the specific effects of these growth factors, both in vitro and in vivo, on periodontal wound healing.

متن کاملPlatelet-Rich Plasma for Frozen Shoulder: A Case Report
Frozen shoulder is a glenohumeral joint disorder that perturbs movement because of adhesion and the existence of fibrosis in the shoulder capsule. Platelet-rich plasma can produce collagen and growth factors, which increases stem cells and consequently enhances the healing. To date, there is no evidence regarding the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma in frozen shoulder. A 45-year-old man ...
