Add to ORKGCarpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is an idiopathic disease that results from increased fibrosis of the subsynovial connective tissue (SSCT). A recent study found overexpression of both transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in the SSCT of CTS patients. This study investigated TGF-b and CTGF expression in a rabbit model of CTS, in which SSCT fibrosis is induced by a surgical injury. Levels of TGF-b1 and CTGF at 6, 12, 24 weeks after injury were determined by immunohistochemistry A significant increase in TGF-b1 and a concomitant significant increase in CTGF were found at 6 weeks, in addition to higher cell density compared to normal (all p,0.05), Interestingly, CTGF expression was reduced at 12 and 24 week...
