From: The optimal concentration of topical hydroxycamptothecin in preventing intraarticular scar adhesion
The collagen density of intararticular adhesion tissue in HCPT-treated groups and control group.
The collagen tissues show blue in the section with Masson's trichrome staining under the light microscope(200×). HCPT could reduce collagen synthesis and fibrosis. The density of collagen tissue in 1.0 and 2.0 mg/ml HCPT-treated groups revealed significant decrease compared with those in 0.5 mg/ml HCPT group, 0.1 mg/ml HCPT group and control group.
