Abstract:
The platelet gel (PG) is mainly made of platelet rich plasma (PRP), which has been increasingly and widely used as a source of growth factors .PG releases platelet derived growth factor , vascular endothelial cell growth factor , transforming growth factor β, epidermal growth factor , and insulin like growth factor 1.These growth factors are necessary for wound healing .Re-cently studies demonstrated that PRP and PG were effective in treating ulcers , burning, osteoarthritis and arthromeningitis .This article will review the bionomics , the mechanism of promoting wound healing and clinical applications of PG .
