Ultrasound assessment of enthesis thickness in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis: A cross-sectional study

, 2018
The inflammatory involvement of the enthesis in the course of psoriasis is accompanied by structural abnormalities detectable by ultrasound.

Primary Cilia Regulate the Mechanical Adaptation of the Tendon and Enthesis via Hedgehog Signaling

European Cells & Materials
Background: Physical loading mediates postnatal growth, homeostasis, and healing of the tendon and its attachment to bone, which is critical for rotator cuff functional integrity.

Understanding the structure and mechanics of the sheep calcaneal enthesis: a relevant animal model to design scaffolds for tissue engineering applications [PDF]

Tendon or enthesis injuries are a worldwide clinical problem. Along the enthesis, collagen fibrils show a progressive loss of anisotropy and an increase in mineralization reaching the bone. This causes gradients of mechanical properties.

Ablating hedgehog signaling in tenocytes during development impairs biomechanics and matrix organization of the adult murine patellar tendon enthesis.

, 2015
Restoring the native structure of the tendon enthesis, where collagen fibers of the midsubstance are integrated within a fibrocartilaginous structure, is problematic following injury.

Enthesis and Enthesopathy

Background: Enthesopathies affect entheses, highly specialized connetive tissue, connecting tendon to bone. Enthesis and adjacent structures form a functional unit.

The Anatomical Basis of Skeletal Robusticity in Sex Estimation: Testing the Relationships Between Soft Tissue and Enthesis Size

Objectives: In skeletal sex estimation, some morphological methods assume relationships between soft tissue (muscle/ligament)size, skeletal robusticity (enthesis size), and sexual dimorphism, where larger muscles theoretically lead to larger entheses ...

Engineering the Enthesis: Mechanical Constraints, Functional Objectives, and Biomaterial Design Strategies

Fibrocartilaginous entheses are heterogeneous connective tissues that link soft tissues to bone in key joints and are crucial for mobility where the available attachment area is minimal.

Revealing the Auxetic Behavior of Biomimetic Multi-material and Region-specific Nanofibrous Scaffolds via Synchrotron Multiscale Digital Volume Correlation: Innovative Building Blocks for the Enthesis Regeneration

Enthesis lesions are one of the prevalent causes of injuries in the tendon tissue. The gradient of mineralization, extracellular matrix organization and auxetic mechanical properties, make enthesis regeneration challenging.
