Injectable Zein‐Based Photothermal Composite Hydrogel Enhances Osteoporotic Tendon–Bone Healing
In the osteoporotic rat rotator cuff repair model, ZDC hydrogels combined with near‐infrared irradiation (NIR) enhanced new bone formation within the humeral head bone tunnel, improved fibrocartilaginous TBI reconstruction, and strengthened biomechanical properties of the repaired tendon–bone complex.
