Intramuscular tendon length in agonist–antagonist myoneural interface components in transtibial amputation: An anatomic study

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 644-652, April 2026.
Interestingly, this study shows that tendons spanned over 75% of the distal muscle belly in all muscles, crucial for the innovative tibiotalar agonist–antagonist myoneural interface (AMI) construction. AMI simulates natural muscle–tendon interaction in amputees, improving prosthetic control despite anatomical constraints.

Functional anatomy of entheses and enthesis organs: A celebration of Professor Mike Benjamin's contribution to enthesis biology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 583-590, April 2026.
This review celebrates the work of Professor Mike Benjamin, whose anatomical research transformed our understanding of entheses. Entheses are biomechanically complex regions that accommodate the transition between soft connective tissues and bone by natural macroscopic and microscopic adaptations that reduce stress concentration.

Do plantar calcaneal spurs make the plantar aponeurosis enthesis stronger? A biomechanical analysis

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 591-597, April 2026.
Novel testing set up for determining enthesial avulsion parameters. Donor calcanei were dissected to isolate the central band of the plantar fascia, and mounted in a custom 3D‐printed rig (Fig A, B, C) for uniaxial tensile testing of the plantar fascia enthesis (Fig D). This study demonstrated no significant differences in the avulsion parameters, Fmax

ACTA1‐Related Adult‐Onset Scapuloperoneal Myopathy With Cores and Rods

open access: yesNeuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, Volume 52, Issue 2, April 2026.
We report a patient with an adult‐onset, slowly progressive, ACTA1‐related scapuloperoneal myopathy with cores and rods, determined by the heterozygous variant NM_001100.4:c.1001C > T, p.(Pro334Leu). The scapuloperoneal phenotype could represent a distinct subcategory, and the characterisation of this patient with a less severe, different clinical ...

The Secretome From Mechanically Loaded Myoblasts Enhances Tenocyte‐Mediated Wound Healing in a 3D In Vitro Tendon Model

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
Human primary myoblasts were subjected to 2% or 10% static mechanical loading for 24 h, with unloaded cells as controls. Conditioned media were collected and applied, together with normal medium, to a 3D tendon fibrin gel model. Secretome from loaded myoblasts, particularly 2% loading, enhanced tenocyte proliferation, scleraxis (SCX) expression, and ...
