Description
Recep Taskin and co-authors check whether blood levels of inflammation-resolving molecules mirror the damage in torn shoulder tendons. Their 2025 study enrolls 35 patients with full-thickness rotator cuff tears and 35 healthy controls. Scans graded how far each tendon had pulled back and how fatty the muscle had become.
Two molecules, Resolvin E1 and Resolvin D1, both ran far lower in patients than in controls. Resolvin E1 tracked moderately with how far the tendon had retracted, but not with fatty change in the muscle. Resolvin D1 tracked with neither. The authors suggest Resolvin E1 could serve as a blood marker of tear severity and of stalled healing, since these molecules normally help switch inflammation off.
