Description
Summary:Background Orbicularis oris muscle, the crucial muscle in speaking, facial expression and aesthetics, is considered the driving force for optimal lip repair. Impaired muscle regeneration remains the main culprit for unsatisfactory surgical outcomes. However, there is a lack of study on how different surgical manipulations affect lip muscle regeneration, limiting efforts to seek effective interventions. Methods In this study, we established a rat lip surgery model where the orbicularis oris muscle was injured by manipulations including dissection, transection and stretch. The effect of each technique on muscle regeneration was examined by histological analysis of myogenesis and fibrogenesis. The impact of tensile force was further investigated by the in vitro application of mechanical strain on cultured myoblasts. Transcriptome profiling of muscle satellite cells from different surgical groups was performed to figure out the key factors mediating muscle fibrosis, followed by therapeutic intervention to improve muscle regeneration after lip surgeries. Results Evaluation of lip muscle regeneration till 56 days after injury revealed that the stretch group resulted in the most severe muscle fibrosis (n = 6, fibrotic area 48.9% in the stretch group, P
