Dynamic Physicochemical Gradients for Tendon–Bone Regeneration
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Dynamic physicochemical gradients offer a framework for reconnecting soft tendon and hard bone. This Review examines how hydration, transport, loading and degradation reshape these gradients during healing. Coordinating regional biological cues with progressive transfer of load from scaffold to tissue guides the design of interfaces that retain ...
