Currently, bioresorbable stents made with biodegradable materials are attracting more and more attentions in cardiovascular tissue engineering. Especially, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) stent has been regarded as themost promising one due to excellent biodegradability until serious in-stent restenosis at late stagewas reported. This imply that the PLLA stent has side effect in cell function, and it is rarely reported the effect of degradation product of PLLA on endothelial function. Here we reported that lactic acid (LA) not acidic pH induced endothelial-tomesenchymal transition (EndMT) leading to vascular fibrosis which may contribute to in-stent stenosis after PLLA stent implantation. Furthermore, we found TGF-beta 1 signaling was involved in boosting EndMT by LA. These results demonstrate a mechanismof in-stent stenosis induced by PLLA and indicate its utility for the future design of polymeric vascular scaffolds. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
