description | Tendon adhesion is a common complication after tendon surgery. The inflammatory phase of tendon healing is characterized by the release of a large number of inflammatory factors, whose mediated excessive inflammatory response is an important cause of tendon adhesion formation. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) were used to prevent tendon adhesions by reducing the inflammatory response. However, recent studies have shown that the NSAIDs partially impairs tendon healing. Therefore, optimizing the anti-adhesive membrane loaded with NSAIDs to mitigate the effects on tendon healing requires further in-depth study. Amniotic membranes(AM) are natural polymeric semi-permeable membranes from living organisms that are rich in matrix, growth factors, and other active ingredients. In this study, we used electrostatic spinning technology to construct multifunctional nanofiber membranes of the PCL membrane loaded with celecoxib and AM. In vitro cellular assays revealed that celecoxib-loaded PCL membranes significantly inhibited the adhesion and proliferation of fibroblasts with increasing concentrations of celecoxib. In a rabbit tendon repair model, biomechanical tests further confirmed that the PCL membrane loaded with celecoxib had better anti-adhesion effects. Further experimental studies revealed that the PCL/AM membrane improved the inflammatory microenvironment by downregulating the expression of pro-inflammatory factors such as COX-2, IL-1β, and TNF-α proteins; and inhibiting the synthesis of COL I and COL Ⅲ. The PCL/AM membrane can continuously release celecoxib to reduce the inflammatory response and deliver growth factors to the damaged area to build a suitable microenvironment for tendon repair, which provides a new direction to improve the repair efficiency of tendon. |
