Abstract Murphy Roths Large mice (MRL) exhibit improved tendon healing and are often described as a “super-healer” strain. The underlying mechanisms that drive the superior healing response of MRL remain a controversial subject. We utilized a tendon transplantation model between MRL and “normal-healer” B6-mice to differentiate between the contribution of MRL’s innate tendon and systemic environment to its improved healing capacity. Patellar tendons with a midsubstance punch injury were transplanted back into the same animal (autograft) or into an animal of the other strain (allograft). Findings at 4 weeks showed that the innate MRL tendon environment drives its improved healing capacity as demonstrated by improved stiffness and maximum load in MRL-grafts-in-B6-host-allografts compared to B6-autografts, and higher modulus in MRL-autografts compared to B6-graft-in-MRL-host-allografts. Groups with an MRL component showed an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines in the 3 days after injury, suggesting an early enhanced inflammatory profile in MRL that ultimately resolves. A preserved range of motion of the knee joint in all MRL animals suggests a systemic “shielding effect” of MRL in regard to joint adhesiveness. Our findings 4-weeks post injury are consistent with previous studies showing tissue-driven improved healing and suggest that the systemic environment contributes to the overall healing process. |
