Platelets

• Platelets derived from megokaryocytes• Important in Hemostasis/Clotting• Platelets are normally activated during the inflammatory phase to begin healing• Role in the normal healing response via the

secrection of local growth factors• Growth factors released by platelets recruit

reparative cells and augment soft-tissue repair

What Is PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is blood plasma that has been enriched with platelets. As a concentrated source of autologous platelets, PRP contains (and releases through degranulation) several different growth factors and other cytokines that stimulate healing of bone and soft tissue.
