| DrugBank Description: | Platelet lysate is an acellular compound composed of platelet proteins while also being void of cellular debris, thus making the lysate rich with growth factors. It is extracted through lysis of the plasma membrane of platelets. Because white cell antigens are low in prepared lysate, there is a minimized likelihood of immune responses. |

| DrugBank MoA: | Platelet lysate plays a role in regeneration through the growth factors it contains, resulting in an increase in cell proliferation and angiogenesis. Nebulized platelet lysate can be administered to the lungs and has applications in treatment of acute lung injuries, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and asthma. Because of the aforementioned diseases that the plasma lysate can treat and its ability to relegate severe inflammatory processes of the respiratory tract, it is currently also being investigated against COVID-19 infection-related acute respiratory syndrome (ARDS). |
