Wrapping of tendon tissues with diclofenac-immobilized polycaprolactone fibrous sheet improves tendon healing in a rabbit model of collagenase-induced Achilles tendinitis
E-mail:,
We fabricated diclofenac-immobilized polycaprolactone (DFN/PCL) fibrous sheets to improve tendon healing of rabbits with collagenase-induced Achilles tendinitis. DFN/PCL have anti-inflammatory effects related to suppression of mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory factors including COX-2, IL-6, TNF-α, and MMP-3 in inflamed tenocytes and tendon tissues of rabbits with Achilles tendinitis as well as those of anti-inflammatory cytokines including IL-4, IL-10, and IL-13. In vivo studies, wrapping of tendon tissues with DFN/PCL fibrous sheets may afford superior tendon healing, with decreased inflammatory cells, increased collagen content, restored collagen fiber organization, and improved mechanical strength. This approach will be a promising treatment from Achilles tendinitis.
