Abstract
Concentrated leukocytes in leukocyte and platelet‑rich plasma (L‑PRP) may deliver increased levels of pro‑inflammatory cytokines to activate the nuclear factor (NF)‑κB signaling pathway, to counter or overwhelm the beneficial effects of growth factors on cartilage regeneration. However, to date, no relevant studies have substantiated this. In the present study, L‑PRP and pure platelet‑rich plasma (P‑PRP) were prepared, and leukocytes, platelets,...
