Platelets contain abundant growth factors and cytokines that have a positive influence on the migration and proliferation of different cell types by modulating its physiopathological processes. As it is known that human umbilical cord blood platelet lysate (UCB-PL) contains a supraphysiological concentration of growth factors, in the present study, we investigated its effectiveness in wound-healing processes. Human UCB-PL was obtained by the freeze/thaw of platelet concentrate (1.1 x 10(9) platelets/L), and its effect was evaluated on human or mouse endothelial cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes in different concentrations. Human UCB-PL was observed to have high levels of pro-angiogenic growth factor than peripheral blood platelet-rich plasma. Among the cell lines, different concentrations of human UCB-PL were necessary to influence their viability and proliferation. For L929 cells, 5% of total volume was necessary, while for human umbilical vein endothelial cell, it was 10%. Cell migration on monocytes was increased with respect to the positive control, and scratch closure on keratinocytes was increased with respect to serum-free medium with only 10% of human UCB-PL. We concluded that the human UCB-PL may be useful to produce a large amount of standard platelet concentrates sufficient for several clinical-scale expansions avoiding inter-individual variability, which can also be used as a functional tool for clinical regenerative application for wound healing.

Abstract
Platelets contain abundant growth factors and cytokines that have a positive influence on the migration and proliferation of different cell types by modulating its physiopathological processes. As it is known that human umbilical cord blood platelet lysate (UCB-PL) contains a supraphysiological concentration of growth factors, in the present study, we investigated its effectiveness in wound-healing processes. Human UCB-PL was obtained by the freeze/thaw of platelet concentrate (1.1 x 10(9) platelets/L), and its effect was evaluated on human or mouse endothelial cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes in different concentrations. Human UCB-PL was observed to have high levels of pro-angiogenic growth factor than peripheral blood platelet-rich plasma. Among the cell lines, different concentrations of human UCB-PL were necessary to influence their viability and proliferation. For L929 cells, 5% of total volume was necessary, while for human umbilical vein endothelial cell, it was 10%. Cell migration on monocytes was increased with respect to the positive control, and scratch closure on keratinocytes was increased with respect to serum-free medium with only 10% of human UCB-PL. We concluded that the human UCB-PL may be useful to produce a large amount of standard platelet concentrates sufficient for several clinical-scale expansions avoiding inter-individual variability, which can also be used as a functional tool for clinical regenerative application for wound healing.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
