Platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes promote rotator cuff tendon-bone healing.
Injury 2023 November 15
BACKGROUND: Rotator cuff tear (RCT) is the most common type of shoulder joint injury, platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-exos) are highly promising in tissue repair and regeneration. The purpose of this study was to determine the function of PRP-exos in rotator cuff tendon-bone healing.
METHODS: PRP-exos were isolated from the rabbit whole blood by differential ultracentrifugation and characterized through transmission electron microscopy assay, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting. Alkaline phosphatase and Von Kossa staining were used to show tendon-derived stem cell (TDSC) differentiation. RT-qPCR and western blotting were performed to detect COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1. To determine the therapeutic effects of PRP-exos in vivo. Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were divided into control, model, and PRP-exos groups. The RCT animal model was constructed. The changes in tendon-bone tissue were determined by HE staining. Contents of COL-II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 were determined by immunohistochemistry staining.
RESULTS: PRP-exos were successfully isolated from rabbit blood. PRP-exos promoted TDSC proliferation and differentiation and also induced tendon-specific markers COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 production. In vivo study revealed that PRP-exos promoted early healing of injured tendons. Rabbits treated with PRP-exos had better tissue arrangement in the tear site. Additionally, the contents of COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 were also increased in the RCT rabbit model after PRP-exos treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: PRP-exos enhanced tendon-bone healing by promoting TDSC proliferation and differentiation. This finding indicates that PRP-exos can serve as a promising strategy to treat rotator cuff tendon-bone healing.
