Abstract

Leukocyte platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) is an autologous biomaterial used in regenerative medicine and tissue healing. This review emphasizes the role of growth factors and cytokines in L-PRF, which contribute significantly to the healing process in various clinical scenarios. The analysis focuses on the controlled release of Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF), Fibroblast growth factors (FGF), and Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF), demonstrating a propensity to promote angiogenesis and stimulate the migration and proliferation of cells necessary for tissue regeneration. The review also examines the roles of anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines, including Interleukins (IL-1, IL-4, IL-10, IL-6) and Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?), and Interferon-gamma (IFN-?), in modulating the inflammatory response during tissue healing. The goal of this comprehensive review is to enhance the understanding of L-PRF and its constituent factors, opening avenues for harnessing its potential in regenerative medicine. The bioactive components within L-PRF stimulate tissue healing and repair, creating an optimal environment for tissue regeneration.
