Effect of PRP on the proliferation of cells derived from patients with testicular torsion. Analysis of the effect of PRP on the proliferation of cells derived from two patients with testis torsion (#4 and #NR1) in (A) standard condition (24 h treatment in atmospheric O2) and (B) hypoxic/normoxic condition (6 h treatment with 1% O2 followed by 24 h treatment in atmospheric O2). Histogram legend: white, untreated cells (control); light grey, cells treated with 500 platelets/µl; dark grey, cells treated with 1000 platelets/µl. Values are the means (± SE) of at least three independent biological replicates. Statistical significance is reported as * p < 0.05. “plt” stands for platelets.
