Abstract
Purpose: Regenerative medicine increasingly focuses on blood-derived products for osteoarthritis therapy. Frequently, citrate-anti-coagulated platelet-rich plasma (CPRP) is intra-articularly injected into diseased joints, however, cell-free alternatives such as hyperacute serum (hypACT) are under development. Mechanisms of action of blood products are still poorly understood. The discovery of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in blood and EV-associated cargo molecules such as miRNAs opened up new levels of complexity in understanding the therapeutic potential of blood products.
