Recombinant Proteins> | To induce the generation of ROS, 200 μM H2O2 (ZY-N191222, Zeye, Shanghai, China) or IL-1β (2 ng/ml; Z03014, Genscript, Nanjing, China) was added into the medium to stimulate cells for 24 hours or 20 min, respectively. | Get A Quote |
Myotendinous junction (MTJ) injuries are prevalent in clinical practice, yet the treatment approaches are limited to surgical suturing and conservative therapy, exhibiting a high recurrence rate. Current research on MTJ tissue engineering is scarce and lacks in vivo evaluation of repair efficacy. Here, we developed a three-dimensional-printed bioactive fiber-reinforced hydrogel containing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and Klotho for structural and functional MTJ regeneration. In a rat MTJ defect model, the bioactive fiber-reinforced hydrogel promoted the structural restoration of muscle, tendon, and muscle-tendon interface and enhanced the functional recovery of injured MTJ. In vivo proteomics and in vitro cell... More
