Novel bisphosphonate-based cathepsin K-triggered compound targets the enthesis without impairing soft tissue-to-bone healing

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Background: Osteoadsorptive fluorogenic sentinel 3 (OFS-3) is a recently described compound that contains a bone-targeting bisphosphonate (BP) and cathepsin K (Ctsk)-triggered fluorescence signal.

Scleraxis is required for the development of a functional tendon enthesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2015
ABSTRACT The attachment of dissimilar materials is a major engineering challenge, yet this challenge is seemingly overcome in biology. This study aimed to determine how the transcription factor Scleraxis ( Scx ) influences the development and maturation of the tendon‐to‐bone

Biomechanical characterization of decellularized enthesis scaffolds.

open access: yes, 2017
(A) Decellularized enthesis samples as well as control samples were biomechanically tensile tested in a customized set-up. (B) Tendon and bone part were clamped to the testing device and strain was applied at a constant speed ramp until failure of the ...

Wnt5a is expressed in spondyloarthritis and exerts opposite effects on enthesis and bone in murine organ and cell cultures

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceSpondyloarthritis (SpA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disorder that initiates at the enthesis, where tendons attach to bone through a fibrocartilage zone.

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

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy
Abstract This review celebrates the work of Professor Mike Benjamin, whose anatomical research transformed our understanding of entheses ‐ the sites where tendons, ligaments and other connective tissues attach to bone. This review aims to provide an overview of Professor Benjamin's foundational concepts, including the enthesis organ ...

Plantar enthesopathy : thickening of the enthesis is correlated with energy dissipation of the plantar fat pad during walking

open access: yes, 2010
Background: The enthesis of the plantar fascia is thought to play an important role in stress dissipation. However, the potential link between entheseal thickening characteristic of enthesopathy and the stress-dissipating properties of the intervening ...

Human spinal enthesis comparative biology of IL-17F and IL-17A reveals greater T-cell IL-17F induction and IL-23 regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
ObjectiveAlthough IL-17F is important in psoriasis, the rudimentary biology of IL-17F in the human enthesis remains undefined. We aimed to characterise IL-23-dependent and independent IL-17F production from entheseal innate and adaptive T cells and ...

A Spheroid-Based In Vitro Model to Generate the Zonal Organisation of the Tendon-to-Bone Enthesis

open access: yesOrganoids
The tendon-to-bone enthesis is a multiphasic structure with four structurally continuous and compositionally distinct regions: tendon, uncalcified fibrocartilage, calcified fibrocartilage and bone.
