Otimização da obtenção de plasma rico em plaquetas no gato

Abstract

ABSTRACT - PROTOCOL OPTIMIZATION FOR OBTAINING PLATELET RICH PLASMA IN CATS - The application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) constitutes a promising therapeutic approach in the repair of lesions due to the beneficial effects of platelets, growth factors, and other biological molecules in the physiological mechanisms of wound healing and tissue regeneration. However, currently there is no consensus on the biological value of PRP, nor on the optimal PRP characteristics for its therapeutic application, which, given the number of variables that affect the final product characteristics and their potential to interact with each other, including variables on the preparation protocol, is not surprising. Nonetheless, interest in PRP has been increasing in veterinary medicine. There is, however, very few references on how to prepare PRP in some species, including the cat. This study aims to understand the basic principles of PRP therapy and to optimize a protocol for the production of PRP in cats, by assessing how factors derived from its preparation method (number of centrifugations, centrifugation speed and time) modify PRP concentration efficiency. In addition, blood counts were made in order to characterize the PRP. It was concluded that the methodology used in this study was unable to concentrate platelets and that, within the limits of this study, a single "soft spin" (<100g for 5 min.) could represent a relatively simple and economical method for producing PRP in cats. Future studies are necessary to assess other parameters, namely the isolated effects of leukocytes and erythrocytes on the PRP preparation and their therapeutic effects, in order to adjust the methodology and specifically obtain the cells we want to apply in the lesion.

A aplicação de plasma rico em plaquetas (PRP) constitui um tratamento promissor na reparação de lesões devido aos efeitos benéficos das plaquetas, dos fatores de crescimento e de outras moléculas biológicas nos mecanismos fisiológicos de cicatrização e regeneração tecidular. Porém, atualmente não existe consenso quanto ao valor biológico do PRP, bem como das características ideais para a sua aplicação, o que não é surpreendente dado o número de variáveis que influenciam a obtenção deste produto biológico e do potencial destas poderem interagir entre si, incluindo as variáveis do protocolo de preparação. Não obstante, o interesse no PRP tem vindo a aumentar na Medicina Veterinária, existindo, ainda, poucas referências à sua preparação em algumas espécies, como é o caso do gato. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo rever os princípios da terapia por PRP e otimizar um protocolo de produção de PRP em gatos, através do estudo das variáveis inerentes à sua preparação laboratorial (número de centrifugações, força e tempo de centrifugação) na eficácia de concentração de plaquetas. Adicionalmente, foram realizadas contagens de células sanguíneas de forma a caracterizar o PRP obtido. Concluiu-se que, através da metodologia usada, não foi possível concentrar plaquetas e que, dentro dos limites deste trabalho, uma única “rotação branda” (<100g, durante 5 min.) pode constituir um método relativamente simples e económico para obter PRP em gatos. De futuro, outros parâmetros que deverão ser avaliados são os efeitos isolados dos leucócitos e hemácias na preparação do PRP e mesmo a nível terapêutico, por forma a poder-se adequar a metodologia e a otimizar a obtenção das células que se pretendem aplicar na lesão.
