The Evolution of Three Generations of Platelet Concentrates Products: A Leap from Classical Formulations to the Era of Extracellular Vesicles

    Y Li, Huimin You, Chi-Yu Ou … Ju Tian
    Studysummary This review discusses the evolution of platelet concentrates in regenerative medicine, highlighting a proposed function-driven classification that distinguishes three generations of PCs by biological activity rather than development order, with third-generation exosome-based therapies showing superior therapeutic efficacy over earlier formulations.
