Inflammatory response in chronic degenerative endometritis mares treated with platelet-rich plasma

Abstract: Degenerative changes of the endometrium are directly related to age and fertility in mares. Chronic degenerative endometritis (CDE) is correlated with uterine fluid retention and reduced ability to clear uterine inflammation. Recent research in the areas of equine surgery and sports medicine has shown that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment acts as an immunomodulator of the inflammatory response. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine if the uterine infusion of PRP could modulate the local inflamm… Show more

“…Platelets carry more than 800 proteins, namely cytokines, hormones and chemoattractants of stem cells, macrophages and neutrophils, responsible for various post-translational modifications of nearly 1,500 bioactive factors (19). Platelets also carry numerous growth factors of great significance due to their ability to repair tissue as well as their mitogenic, chemotactic, neovascular and anti-inflammatory effects (20). These factors include: vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), keratinocyte growth factor (KGF), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and 2 (IGF-II) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which are released following alpha granule activation by native or exogenous molecules, including thrombin, collagen, magnesium and calcium chloride.…”

“…Each mare served as its own control and the treatment was performed with intrauterine PRP infusion four hrs after artificial insemination. They concluded that PRP was effective in modulating the exacerbated uterine inflammatory response to semen in mares with chronic degenerative endometritis [27,38] .…”
