Abstract

Human Platelet lysate, a hemoderivative product rich in growth factors, holds significant promise in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, its practical utility in liquid or gel form is hampered by challenges such as limited stability and handling difficulties. This study aimed to engineer dry and porous aerogels from platelet lysate hydrogel using an environmen-tally friendly supercritical CO2-based shaping process customized for tissue engineering appli-cations. The resulting aerogels demonstrated remarkable mechanical robustness and improved manageability. Notably, they exhibited a high-water absorption capacity. Moreover, these aer-ogels exhibited a sustained and favourable biological response in-vitro. They demonstrated the ability to release functional growth factors, sustaining cellular metabolic activity similar to that of conventional culture conditions, even after prolonged storage. Furthermore, they supported the adhesion and proliferation of murine fibroblasts (BALB-3T3) and the migration of Human Um-bilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC). In addition to serving as excellent matrices for cell culture, these proposed aerogels also function as efficient growth factor delivery systems. This multi-functional capability positions them as promising candidates for various tissue regeneration strategies. Importantly, the elaborated aerogels can be conveniently stored and considered as ready-to-use products, enhancing their practicality and applicability in regenerative medicine
