        | Core Tip | Formation of intraperitoneal adhesions is one of the major complications after abdominal surgery, which may lead to bowel obstruction. Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is an extracellular matrix modulating glycoprotein during tissue regeneration and collagen deposition. This study evaluated the therapeutic potential of overexpressed TSP-1 in suppressing pelvic adhesion formations in rat models. We found the application of Sperafilm reduced the formation of adhesion band, and local administration of adenoviral vectors encoding TSP-1 on the injured cecum the also attenuated the severity of peritoneal adhesion score. Therefore, therapeutic approaches in inducing regional overexpression of TSP-1 may serve as alternative treatment strategies for preventing postoperative peritoneal adhesion. |
