Caveolin-1 knockdown enhances bone-tendon healing, biomechanical properties, and inhibits rupture of injured tendon after RCTs in rats. A HE staining of the bone-tendon junction of sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats. B Shows the bone, M represents muscle, and T represents tendon. B Masson’s trichrome staining of the density of substrate and continuity of collagen fibers in sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats. C Immunohistochemistry of collagen I positive (brown) expression of sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats. D Quantitative analysis of panel C. E The maximum load of sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats measured by biomechanical test. F The limiting stress of sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats measured by biomechanical test. G The fracture elongation rate of sh-Caveolin-1-treated rats measured by biomechanical test. n = 8 rats for each treatment. *p < 0.05
