TLDR Freeze-drying collagen-activated PRP increases TGF-β1 levels, enhancing tissue regeneration potential.
The study investigated the effect of freeze-drying collagen-activated platelet-rich plasma (PRP+C) on transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) levels, which are crucial for bone remodeling and osteoblast formation. PRP, known for its regenerative properties, was activated with collagen and divided into freeze-dried (FD PRP+C) and non-freeze-dried (PRP+C) groups. The results showed that the TGF-β1 level in the freeze-dried group was significantly higher than in the non-freeze-dried group (p<0.05). This indicated that the freeze-drying process enhanced the TGF-β1 levels in collagen-activated PRP, suggesting improved potential for tissue regeneration.
