<p>Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained increasing recognition as a promising therapeutic agent in managing rheumatic diseases. Conventional treatments, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, and disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), primarily act on reducing inflammation but fail to address the underlying mechanisms of connective tissue degradation. PRP, an autologous preparation enriched with growth factors and bioactive molecules, is pivotal in modulating inflammation and fostering tissue regeneration. This review overviews the therapeutic potential of PRP across a spectrum of rheumatic diseases, such as osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic sclerosis (SSc), and osteonecrosis. The regenerative capacity of PRP, driven by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), promotes tissue repair, reduces cartilage damage and improves joint function. Emerging evidence supports the efficacy of PRP in early-stage OA, demonstrating superior outcomes over traditional therapies like hyaluronic acid and glucocorticoids in terms of pain relief and functional improvement. Despite its benefits, PRP therapy is characterized by variability in treatment responses, with challenges in standardizing preparation protocols and treatment regimens. This review highlights the need for robust clinical trials to establish uniform treatment protocols, optimize patient selection, and evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of PRP therapy in rheumatic diseases.</p>
