Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Platelet-rich fibrin can promote soft tissue healing, and soluble factors secreted by mesenchymal stem cells can promote skin regeneration, but their combination effects on skin repair are little reported.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of conditioned medium of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells combined with platelet-rich fibrin on the healing of skin wound in mice.
METHODS: Full-thickness skin injury models were established in C57/BL6 mice and randomly divided into four groups, 10 mice in each group. After the modeling, each group was smeared with the specific medium of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, the conditioned medium of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, the platelet-rich fibrin, the conditioned medium of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells combined with platelet-rich fibrin, thrice daily for 7 consecutive days. The wound size was measured at 1, 3, 7 and 10 days after treatment and the wound healing rate was calculated at 3 and 7 days after treatment. Histological analysis of wound healing was performed at 14 days after treatment. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the specific culture medium of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, the wound healing time in the other three groups was shorter. The wound healing rate of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium combined with platelet-rich fibrin group was significantly higher than that in the other three groups at 3 and 7 days after treatment (P < 0.05). The adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium group and platelet-rich fibrin group showed higher healing rate than the adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell specific medium group (P < 0.05). Histological findings showed that the aggregation of white blood cells and fibroblasts, angiogenesis, granulation tissue remodeling and epithelization in the conditioned medium of adipose mesenchymal stem cells combined with the platelet-rich fibrin group were more obvious than those in the other three groups, in which the best wound healing effect was found. These results suggest that the combination of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium and platelet-rich fibrin can effectively promote the repair of skin injury in mice, and the effect is better than that of conditioned medium or platelet-rich fibrin alone.
