RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Over the past decades, the focus on the regenerative properties of platelets (PLTs) has intensified and many PLT-derived growth factors are readily used in medical settings. A general lack of standardization in the preparation of these growth factors remains, however, and this study therefore examines the dynamics of growth factors throughout the freeze-thaw procedure. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Plateletpheresis (PA) and PLT-poor plasma (PPP) samples were collected from 10 healthy donors. PA was lysed to produce PLT lysate (PL) for 1, 3, 5, 10, and 30 freeze-thaw cycles. The resulting growth factor and cytokine concentrations from PPP, PA, and PL of different cycles were analyzed and compared using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and multiplex bead assays. RESULTS: PL produced by the freeze-thaw procedure resulted in approximately four- to 10-fold enrichment of transforming growth factor-ß1, epidermal growth factor, PLT-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AB/BB, PLT factor-4, and fibroblast growth factor-2. The increase in concentrations plateaued at Cycles 3 and 5 and in some cases declined with further cycles. The concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-1, hepatocyte growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, and bone morphogenetic protein-2 in PL were essentially comparable to those in PPP. CONCLUSION: Using the freeze-thaw method, optimal preparation of PL with regard to the concentration of growth factors was achieved at Cycles 3 to 5. Based on our findings, the clinical significance of using a greater number of cycles is likely limited.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Platelet lysate is a readily available source of growth factors, and other mediators, which has been used in a variety of clinical applications. However, the product remains poorly standardized and the present investigation evaluates the composition of platelet lysate obtained from either fresh or stored pathogen-inactivated platelet units. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Platelet pooled units (n = 10) were obtained from healthy blood donors and tested according to standard procedures. All units were pathogen inactivated using amotosalen hydrochloride and UVA exposure. Platelet lysate was subsequently produced at two separate time-points, either from fresh platelet units or after 5 days of storage, by repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The following mediators were determined at each time-point: EGF, FGF-2, VEGF, IGF-1, PDGF-AB/BB, BMP-2, PF4, TGF-ß isoform 1, IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p70, 1L-17A, TNF-α, and IFN-γ. RESULTS: The concentration of growth factors and cytokines was affected by time in storage. Notably, TGF-ß, PDGF-AB/BB, and PF4 showed an increase of 27.2% (p < 0.0001), 29.5% (p = 0.04) and 8.2% (p = 0.0004), respectively. A decrease was seen in the levels of IGF-1 and FGF-2 with 22% (p = 0.041) and 11% (p = 0.01), respectively. Cytokines were present only in very low concentrations and all other growth factors remained stable with time in storage. CONCLUSION: The composition of mediators in platelet lysate obtained from pathogen-inactivated platelet units differs when produced from fresh and stored platelet units, respectively. This underscores the need for further standardization and optimization of this important product, which potentially may influence the clinical effects.
