Effect of Type 2 Diabetes on Biomarker Levels in Albumin Platelet-Rich Fibrin

Sponsor: Izmir Katip Celebi University

Summary

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease that can negatively affect wound healing and tissue repair. Albumin platelet-rich fibrin (Alb-PRF) is a blood-derived biomaterial used in periodontal and regenerative treatments. It contains growth factors and cytokines that may support tissue healing. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether type 2 diabetes affects the biological composition of Alb-PRF. For this purpose, Alb-PRF samples obtained from individuals with type 2 diabetes will be compared with samples obtained from systemically healthy individuals. A total of 20 participants will be included in the study: 10 individuals with type 2 diabetes and 10 systemically healthy individuals. Venous blood samples will be collected from each participant, and Alb-PRF will be prepared using a standardized protocol. The prepared samples will be stored at -80°C until laboratory analysis. The levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in Alb-PRF samples will be measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). These markers are related to inflammation, tissue repair, and wound healing. The results will help determine whether type 2 diabetes changes the cytokine and growth factor profile of Alb-PRF.
