Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fresh platelet-rich plasma (PRP) accelerates bone union in rat model. However, fresh PRP has a short half-life. We suggested freeze-dried PRP (FD-PRP) prepared in advance and investigated its efficacy on bone union in vivo. Spinal posterolateral fusion (PLF) was performed on 8-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats, showing that FD-PRP accelerated bone union comparable to fresh PRP and BMP (human recombinant bone morphogenetic protein 2) by remodeling the bone with thinner but more tangled trabecular bone with rigidity. Histologically, the trabecular bone had thinner and more branches in the FD-PRP. And the biomechanical strength was high comparable to autologous bone. In conclusion, FD-PRP provides bone union ability comparable to fresh PRP and BMP, and can be prepared in advance safely and at low cost.
