Evaluating the Changement of hydroxyproline (Hyp) in chronic wound tissue after treatment with platelet-rich plasma
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background and aims: Proline hydroxylation is essential for collagen synthesis in wound healing. Therefore, hydroxyproline (Hyp quantification may be a suitable marker of wound healing in chronic wound tissue.
Material and method: This is a descriptive longitudinal study including 30 referral patients from Wound Healing Center, National Burn Hospital, from May 2019 to May 2020. Thirty patients with 33 chronic wounds were was injected subcutaneously inside and around the periphery of the chronic wound. 500mg of skin tissue from the chronic wound before and after PRP treatment were taken for the measurement of Hyp levels at the first and second of follow-up.
Results: Mean Hyp concentration in wound granulation tissue after 2 weeks of PRP treatment (3.75 ± 1.15pg/mg) was significantly higher than mean concentration in the skin before PRP treatment (2.43 ± 1.01pg/mg).
Conclusion: Our results showed that PRP therapy had a beneficial effect on wound healing of the chronic wound through the stimulation to increase Hyp.
