My research into treatment has flagged that Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is being investigated as a potential treatment for brain inflammation, with research suggesting it may help reduce inflammation within the brain by promoting healing processes through the release of growth factors contained within the platelets, potentially offering benefits for conditions related to brain injury or neurodegenerative diseases where inflammation is a key factor.
Does anyone have any knowledge about this or has tried this?
Very little research has been done on this therapy, which is more often used for recovery from trauma. One of the latest published research papers is here: Adverse events related to platelet-rich plasma therapy and future issues to be resolved - PMC

You’re right that PRP is being explored beyond orthopedics and aesthetics, though the research on neurological conditions like Parkinson’s is still very limited. Most evidence so far comes from its use in joint repair, sports injuries, and even skin or hair treatments, where it’s thought to work by delivering growth factors that aid healing https://prptreatmentclinic.com/ The idea of applying this to brain inflammation is scientifically interesting, but current studies are mostly small or preclinical, so it’s too early to say how effective or safe it might be in this area.
