Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Tendon Integrity, Biomechanical Strength, Matrix Remodeling, Inflammation, Angiogenesis, and Tenogenic Differentiation in Rotator Cuff Injury. [PDF]

Kaohsiung J Med Sci
ABSTRACT Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) improves tendon‐bone healing after rotator cuff injury (RCI), but its underlying cellular mechanisms remain unknown. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic effects of ESWT on RCI, with a particular focus on endothelial cells and tenocytes.

Regenerative Medicine in Rotator Cuff Injuries [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2014
Rotator cuff injuries are a common source of shoulder pathology and result in an important decrease in quality of patient life. Given the frequency of these injuries, as well as the relatively poor result of surgical intervention, it is not surprising that new and innovative strategies like tissue engineering have become more appealing.

A Dual-Factor Releasing Hydrogel for Rotator Cuff Injury Repair

Frontiers in Materials, 2021
Rotator cuff injury causes pain in the shoulder and is a challenge to be repaired even after surgical reconstruction. Here, we developed a dual-factor releasing hydrogel based on sulfhydrylated chitosan to deliver KGN and FGF-2 to the injured area to ...
