Core Tip This commentary builds upon a recent study to propose key refinements for platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy in diabetic foot ulcers. We argue against a uniform PRP concentration, advocating instead for cell-type-specific formulations. Furthermore, we highlight the need to address diabetic endothelial dysfunction beyond angiogenesis, and to establish standardized, clinically-relevant protocols based on PRP bioactivity and precise patient stratification. These steps are crucial to transition PRP from a promising treatment to a reliably optimized and personalized therapeutic strategy.
