Can highly purified collagen coating modulate polypropylene mesh immune-inflammatory and fibroblastic reactions? Immunohistochemical analysis in a rat model

Abstract: Highly purified collagen coating causes significant changes in angiogenesis and in the immune reaction of metalloproteinase around mesh implants in rats. These findings can be useful for improving mesh biocompatibility for pelvic floor surgery if such effects could be properly controlled.

“…However, Dias et al . reported a decrease in the average density of MMP-2 expression in the collagen-coated polypropylene mesh after 90 days and there was no significant difference in the immunological response (IL-1) and tissue necrosis/apoptosis (TNF-α)17 in contrast with our findings. This aspect of collagen-coated mesh needs to be looked into as the effect of prolonged inflammatory reaction in this type of mesh is still not clear.…”

“…The host's reaction to the implant is related to the type of material used; for example, an autologous fascia promotes lower inflammation and produces less collagen ( 7 ). Various protocols tested bioactive substances that act on inflammation and accelerate the repair process ( 8 , 9 ). However, the complexity of the implant-host interaction impedes their use and causes controversy.…”

“…There was a higher vessel density compared to simple polypropylene meshes, more stability of MMP-3 with the decrease of MMP-3 after 14 and 90 days and a decrease in average density of MMP-3 after 21 days in the simple polypropylene meshes and after 90 days in the polypropylene meshes covered with collagen. This can improve the mesh biocompatibility for pelvic floor surgery 39 .…”
