RESUMEN
Long-term immobilization of joints can lead to disuse atrophy of the muscles in the joints. Oral nutrients are used clinically for rehabilitation and therapeutic purposes, but bioavailability and targeting are limited. Here, we report tea polyphenols (dietary polyphenols), sustained-release nanofilms that release tea polyphenols through slow local degradation of core-shell nanofibers in muscles. This dietary polyphenol does not require gastrointestinal consumption and multiple doses and can directly remove inflammatory factors and superoxide generated in muscle tissue during joint fixation. The quality of muscles is increased by 30%, and muscle movement function is effectively improved. Although nanofibers need to be implanted into muscles, they can improve bacterial infections after joint surgery. To investigate the biological mechanism of this core-shell nanomembrane prevention, we conducted further transcriptomic studies on muscle, confirming that in addition to achieving antioxidation and anti-inflammation by inhibiting TNF-α and NF-κB signaling pathways, tea polyphenol core-shell nanofibers can also promote muscle formation by activating the p-Akt signaling pathway.
