Unstimulated saliva samples were collected and analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for a panel of four biomarkers: interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-<i>α</i>), and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9).

Using scratch tests, we assessed wound healing capacity and fibroblast migration. The student's <i>t</i>-test was used for statistical analysis; <i>P</i> < 0.001 was considered to be significant.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>While collagen membranes showed a consistent porosity shape, PRF showed a rich fibrin network, including embedded platelets and leukocytes. At 14 days, PRF showed much more cell growth (<i>P</i> < 0.001). Growth factor analysis showed that PRF generated more TGF-β1, PDGF-BB, and VEGF with consistent release (<i>P</i> < 0.001). PRF shows greater healing properties than collagen membranes with enhanced cellular proliferation, movement, and release of growth factors.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>These results suggest that PRF might be a more effective biomaterial for use in guided tissue regeneration.</p>","PeriodicalId":94339,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences","volume":"17 Suppl 1","pages":"S519-S521"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12156619/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144287712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
