The collagen-binding domain was fused into the N-terminus of FGF18 to synthesize recombinant FGF18 (CBD-FGF18), which was tethered to the collagen fibers of AFM-MPs to prepare the injectable fibrocartilage-forming cores (CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs). After examining the influence of the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs on the viability and chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in vitro, we determined the function of the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs on BT healing in a rat RC tear model. A total of 80 Sprague-Dawley rats with RC injuries were randomly assigned to 4 supplemental treatments during RC repair: saline injection (control group), AFM-MPs injection, natural FGF18@AFM-MPs injection, and CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs injection. At 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively, the harvested RC specimens were evaluated via micro\u2013computed tomography, histologic staining, and mechanical testing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In vitro, the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs were highly biomimetic, suitable for cell growth and proliferation, and superior in stimulating chondrogenesis. In vivo micro\u2013computed tomography results showed that the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs group had significantly more new bone formation and better bone remodeling than the other 3 groups. Histologically, at 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively, the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs group had the best continuity of the BT insertion with regular collagen alignment and extensive fibrocartilage regeneration. Importantly, at 8 weeks postoperatively, the RC specimens from the CBD-FGF18@AFM-MPs group presented the highest failure load and stiffness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
