Abstract
Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is an injury caused by overuse of the Achilles tendon or sudden force on the Achilles tendon, with a considerable inflammatory infiltrate. As Achilles tendinopathy progresses, inflammation and inflammatory factors affect the remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the tendon. Gastrodin(Gas), the main active ingredient of Astrodia has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic properties. The small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is a naturally decellularized extracellular matrix(dECM)material and has a high content of growth factors as well as good biocompatibility. However, the reparative effects of SIS and Gas on Achilles tendinopathy and their underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here, it is found that SIS hydrogel loaded with gastrodin restored the mechanical strength of the Achilles tendon, facilitated ECM remodeling, and restored ordered collagen arrangement by promoting the translocation of protein synthesis. It also decreases the expression of inflammatory factors and reduces the infiltration of inflammatory cells by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway. It is believed that through further research, Gas + SIS may be used in the future for the treatment of Achilles tendinopathy and other Achilles tendon injury disorders.

[PMID: 37637777 PMCID: PMC10450357 DOI: 10.1016/j.jot.2023.06.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Tendinopathy is a common motor system disease that leads to pain and reduced function. Despite its prevalence, our mechanistic understanding is incomplete, leading to limited efficacy of treatment options. Animal models contribute significantly to our understanding of tendinopathy and some therapeutic options. However, the inadequacies of animal models are also evident, largely due to differences in anatomical structure and the complexity of human tendinopathy. Different animal models reproduce different aspects of human tendinopathy and are therefore suitable for different scenarios. This review aims to summarize the existing animal models of tendinopathy and to determine the situations in which each model is appropriate for use, including exploring disease mechanisms and evaluating therapeutic effects. Methods We reviewed relevant literature in the PubMed database from January 2000 to December 2022 using the specific terms ((tendinopathy) OR (tendinitis)) AND (model) AND ((mice) OR (rat) OR (rabbit) OR (lapin) OR (dog) OR (canine) OR (sheep) OR (goat) OR (horse) OR (equine) OR (pig) OR (swine) OR (primate)). This review summarized different methods for establishing animal models of tendinopathy and classified them according to the pathogenesis they simulate. We then discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each model, and based on this, identified the situations in which each model was suitable for application. Results For studies that aim to study the pathophysiology of tendinopathy, naturally occurring models, treadmill models, subacromial impingement models and metabolic models are ideal. They are closest to the natural process of tendinopathy in humans. For studies that aim to evaluate the efficacy of possible treatments, the selection should be made according to the pathogenesis simulated by the modeling method. Existing tendinopathy models can be classified into six types according to the pathogenesis they simulate: extracellular matrix synthesis-decomposition imbalance, inflammation, oxidative stress, metabolic disorder, traumatism and mechanical load. Conclusions The critical factor affecting the translational value of research results is whether the selected model is matched with the research purpose. There is no single optimal model for inducing tendinopathy, and researchers must select the model that is most appropriate for the study they are conducting. The translational potential of this article The critical factor affecting the translational value of research results is whether the animal model used is compatible with the research purpose. This paper provides a rationale and practical guide for the establishment and selection of animal models of tendinopathy, which is helpful to improve the clinical transformation ability of existing models and develop new models.
