In vitro and in vivo effects of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) on the functional activity of platelets were studied in experiments on white rats. MSN particles, neither uncoated nor coated with calcium alginate, induced spontaneous platelet aggregation when added to platelet-rich plasma, but significantly enhanced ADP-induced platelet aggregation. Subcutaneous administration of uncoated and calcium alginate-coated MSN resulted in increased maximum size and rate of platelet aggregate formation 1 day post-injection.

Purpose Of Review: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a gradual deterioration of articular cartilage characterized by pain and physical dysfunction. Although analgesic pharmacological agents are the first-line treatment for knee OA, they are not effective for all patients. In this study, we evaluate the efficacy of an intra-articular injection treatment using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in reducing pain and improving functional ability.

Chronic tendinopathy is a degenerative condition characterized by persistent pain, functional limitations, and tendon thickening, often resulting from repetitive overuse or failed tendon healing. Left untreated, it can progress to tendon rupture, prolonged disability, and impaired quality of life. Management typically includes conservative therapies, such as physical therapy, corticosteroid (CS) injections for short-term relief, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a regenerative therapy with potential long-term benefits.

The rotator cuff, a vital group of tendons and muscles in the shoulder, is essential for stabilizing the joint and enabling a wide range of arm movements. Rotator cuff tears, common across all age groups, often cause significant pain and functional limitations. Rotator cuff repair surgery aims to alleviate pain, restore function, and improve quality of life.
