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

Journal of Anatomy
AbstractThis 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, functional entheses

Effects of Overload on Imiquimod‐Induced Psoriasis Model Mice: A Basic Experimental Study

Health Science Reports
Background and Aim Psoriasis is a skin disorder complicated by arthritis and enthesitis. The cytokines interleukin (IL)‐17, IL‐23, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α are reportedly key effectors of psoriasis.

Radiographic imaging of the entheses of the equine thoracic foot. [PDF]

Vet Rec
Abstract Background An injury of a tendon or ligament of the equine foot is frequently a cause of lameness. The optimal radiographic projections delineating the entheses of five commonly injured tendons and ligaments of the foot should be described. Methods The entheses of the collateral ligaments of the distal interphalangeal joint, the collateral ...

Muscle-Tendon-Enthesis Unit [PDF]

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2018
AbstractInjuries to the muscle-tendon-enthesis unit are common and a significant source of pain and loss of function. This article focuses on the important anatomical and biomechanical considerations for each component of the muscle-tendon-enthesis unit. We review normal and pathologic conditions affecting this unit, illustrating the imaging appearance

Characterization of the distributions of collagen and PGs content in the decellularized book-shaped enthesis scaffolds by SR-FTIR

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Bone-tendon interface (enthesis) plays a pivotal role in relaxing load transfer between otherwise structurally and functionally distinct tissue types.

The Sound of Enthesis [PDF]

The Journal of Rheumatology, 2010
The enthesis, a 1-millimeter universe, is an area of great interest for the spondyloarthritis (SpA) research community. Our understanding of this critical anatomical area has dramatically improved over the past few years, but much remains to be learned.

Engineering an enthesis-like graft for rotator cuff repair: An approach to fabricate highly biomimetic scaffold capable of zone-specifically releasing stem cell differentiation inducers

Bioactive Materials, 2022
Rotator cuff (RC) attaches to humerus across a triphasic yet continuous tissue zones (bone-fibrocartilage-tendon), termed “enthesis”. Regrettably, rapid and functional enthesis regeneration is challenging after RC tear.

Mesenchymal stem cell therapy regenerates the native bone-tendon junction after surgical repair in a degenerative rat model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: The enthesis, which attaches the tendon to the bone, naturally disappears with aging, thus limiting joint mobility. Surgery is frequently needed but the clinical outcome is often poor due to the decreased natural healing capacity of the ...

Pathogenesis of the Hallux Valgus: Enthesopathy of the Metatarsosesamoid Ligament

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2023
Category: Bunion; Basic Sciences/Biologics Introduction/Purpose: It is generally accepted that failure of the medial supporting soft tissue structure of the metatarsophalangeal joint plays an important role in the development of hallux valgus.

SARS-CoV-2 Infection Induces Psoriatic Arthritis Flares and Enthesis Resident Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Type-1 Interferon Inhibition by JAK Antagonism Offer Novel Spondyloarthritis Pathogenesis Insights

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
ObjectiveBacterial and viral infectious triggers are linked to spondyloarthritis (SpA) including psoriatic arthritis (PsA) development, likely via dendritic cell activation.
