Effects of anti-inflammatory (NSAID) treatment on human tendinopathic tissue
2017
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are widely used in the treatment of tendinopathy, but little is known of the effects of these drugs on tendon tissue. We find that 1 wk of ibuprofen treatment has no effect on gene expression of collagen and related growth factors in adult human tendinopathic tendon in vivo (in spite of relatively low levels of variation in gene expression), suggesting that tendinopathic cells are not responsive to ibuprofen.
