HCPT-EVs obtained superior capacity to protect tendons from myoblast activation after tendon injury. The tendon injury sites were treated topically with Unprimed EVs, HCPT-EVs, or PBS, and tendon tissues were collected 3 weeks after surgery. a Immunohistochemical staining of COL III and α-SMA in peritendinous tissues. b WB analysis of COL III and α-SMA in peritendinous tissues. c, d Semiquantitative analysis for immunohistochemical staining of COL III and α-SMA expression (n = 6 per group). *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001; ns, not significant
