Abstract: | The present study aimed to compare the action of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF+) alone with the action of A-PRF+ combined with autologous gingival fibroblasts. The components released from A-PRF+ conditioned with autogenous fibroblasts that were quantified in the study were fibroblast growth factor (FGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), trans-forming growth factor-beta1 and 2 (TGFβ1 and TGFβ2), and soluble collagen. A-PRF+ combined with fibroblasts demonstrated significantly higher values of released VEGF at every time point and, after 7 days, significantly higher values of released TGFβ2. A viability test after 72 h showed a significant increase in proliferation fibroblasts after exposition to the factors released from A-PRF+ combined with fibroblasts. Similarly, the degree of wound closure after 48 h was significantly higher for the factors released from A-RRF+ alone and the factors released from A-RRF+ combined with fibroblasts. These results imply that platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) enhanced with fibroblasts can be an alternative method of connective tissue transplantation. |
