Abstract:
Peritendinous adhesion, secondary to the repair surgery of tendon rupture or injury, is one of the most common causes of reoperation, owing to the proliferation of fibrous tissue and excessive collagen synthesis caused by the residing inflammatory cells. In this study, a smart oxidative stress-responsive electrospun polyester membrane (EPM) was fabricated as both physical barrier and reservoir of curcumin/celecoxib (CUR/CEL) to prevent peritendinous adhesion. The multicomponent EPM was designed to release the encapsulated drugs in response to oxidative stress of the local microenvironment induced by inflammation. Specifically, sulfides in the EPM were able to react with reactive oxygen species (ROS) and become hydrophilic sulfoxide or sulfone to accelerate the release rate of drugs and regulate oxidative stress level in the inflammatory site intelligently. The oxidation-sensitive multicomponent EPM loaded with CUR and CEL was tested for anti-adhesion capacity in vitro and in vivo. An excellent ROS-sensitive degradation behavior and good cytocompatibility with cell viability of above 85% were presented with the fabricated EPM. The CUR- or CEL-loaded EPM possessed a better anti-adhesion ability compared with EPM without the drugs. Nevertheless, they were inferior to the EPM simultaneously loaded with both drugs, where the adhesion rate and fibrous adhesion number in the EPM+CUR/CEL group were close to extremely low values of about zero, demonstrating that CUR and CEL could synergistically prevent peritendinous adhesion. More interestingly, the multicomponent EPM was able to react with the local oxidative stress, leading to a smart and sustained behavior of releasing approximately 80% of the drug within 20 days. Overall, the smart multicomponent EPM offers a promising barrier strategy to prevent peritendinous adhesion. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
