We have previously demonstrated that the local delivery of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) via an MCP-1-releasing poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-coated coil promotes intra-aneurysmal tissue healing. In this study, we demonstrate that interleukin-6 (IL-6) and osteopontin are downstream mediators in the MCP-1-mediated aneurysm-healing pathway.
