Muscle-tendon cross talk during muscle wasting [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 2021 In organisms from flies to mammals, the initial formation of a functional tendon is completely dependent on chemical signals from muscles (myokines). However, how myokines affect the maturation, maintenance, and regeneration of tendons as a function of age is completely unstudied.
