Abstract: BACKGROUND:To overcome the compromised wound healing in radiation induced chronic wounds platelet-rich plasma (PRP), as therapeutic agent, is current subject of studies. PRP is associated with pro-angiogenic effects. Nevertheless, effects of platelet-rich plasma in cutaneous wound healing processes are poorly understood so far. Methods:In this study, the migration of endothelial cells, fibroblasts and keratinocytes in conjunction with platelet-rich plasma treatment is investigated in the context of radiation effects. Additionally, cell proliferation and viability after external radiation was analyzed regarding treatment by platelet-rich plasma. RESULTS:All cell cultures showed a trend towards decreasing proliferation and viability after irradiation irrespective of PRP. Upon PRP treatment, irradiated fibroblasts as well as endothelial cells showed an enhanced proliferation whereas proliferation and viability of keratinocytes was reduced after PRP treatment. Scratch assays support the positive effect of PRP on fibroblast and endothelial cell migration, whereas a negative effect on keratinocytes was observed after PRP treatment. CONCLUSIONS:The present study documents both deleterious effects of external radiation as well as the protective effect of PRP. In summary, increased viability, proliferation and migration are indeed a consequence of the pro-proliferative effect exerted by PRP. Therefore, treatment with PRP products might be useful in the management of chronic radiogenic wounds.
