摘要
Abstract: Introduction. Platelet preparations for tissue healing are usually pre-activated prior application to deliver concentrated growth factors. Here, we investigate the differences between non-activated and thrombin-activated platelets in wound healing. Methods. The healing effects (wound closure, myofibroblast formation and angiogenesis) of non-activated and thrombin-activated platelets were compared in experimental wounds in diabetic (db/db) animals. In vitro, fibroblast phenotype and function were tested in response to platelets and activated platelets. No treatment served as negative control. Results. Wounds treated with platelets reached 90% closure after 15 days, faster than activated platelets (26 days), and with higher levels myofibroblasts and angiogenesis. In vitro, platelets enhanced cell migration and induced two-fold higher myofibroblast differentiation and contraction, compared to activated platelets. Conclusions. Platelets stimulate wound healing more efficiently compared to activated platelets by enhancing fibroblast differentiation and contractile function. Similar levels of growth factors may induce different biological effects when delivered "on demand" rather than in an initial bolus.
