Application of Injectable, Crosslinked, Fibrin-Containing Hyaluronic Acid Scaffolds for In Vivo Remodeling.

The present research aimed to characterize soft tissue implants that were prepared with the use of crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) using two different crosslinkers and multiple reagent concentrations, alone or in combination with fibrin. The effect of the implants was evaluated in an in vivo mouse model, after 4 weeks in one group and after 12 weeks in the other. The explants were compared using analytical methods, evaluating microscopic images, and a histology analysis.

Cell Attachment Capacity and Compounds of Fibrin Membranes Isolated from Fresh Frozen Plasma and Cryoprecipitate.

Fibrin membranes are widely used in regenerative medicine because they are biocompatible, biodegradable, contain growth factors, and support cell attachment. Most commonly they are produced from serum, but they can also be isolated from activated plasma. To increase the fibrinogen concentration of plasma, cryoprecipitate isolation is a possible solution.
