Addressing Reproducibility in Stem Cell and PRP Therapies

Eduardo Anitua et al. Trends Biotechnol. 2019 Apr.

Abstract

Stem cell and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies are promising breakthroughs in the treatment of multiple conditions. However, the lack of reproducibility due to inaccurate reporting of the protocols used to obtain these biologics can hinder their therapeutic progress. A reporting guideline for biological therapies is required to address this issue.
