Background: After surgical repair of rotator cuff (RC) tears, the torn tendon heals unsatisfactorily to the greater tuberosity owing to limited regeneration of the bone-tendon (BT) insertion. This situation motivates the need for new interventions to enhance BT healing in the RC repair site.
Purpose: To develop injectable fibrocartilage-forming cores by tethering fibroblast growth factor 18 (FGF18) on acellular fibrocartilage matrix microparticles (AFM-MPs) and evaluate their efficacy on BT healing.
