Special Issue Information
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a preparation of autologous human plasma with an increased platelet concentration, produced by centrifuging a large volume of a patient’s own blood. PRP is increasingly used in tissue repair and is a promising treatment for various musculoskeletal diseases. It plays a role in regulating cell migration, division, differentiation, tissue angiogenesis, extracellular matrix synthesis, and vascular repair during tissue regeneration and repair. Applications in orthopedics, sports medicine, burn and plastic surgery, and chronic refractory wound repair have shown satisfactory results. However, evidence of its efficacy varies significantly depending on the specific indication. Additional high-quality clinical trials with extended follow-up periods will be crucial in refining our understanding of this treatment. This publication aims to present some of the latest advances in PRP treatment to improve therapeutic outcomes for PRP patients.
