Exposure of a tendon extracellular matrix to synovial fluid triggers endogenous and engrafted cell death: A mechanism for failed healing of intrathecal tendon injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of normal synovial fluid (SF) on exposed endogenous tendon-derived cells (TDC) and engrafted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within the tendon extracellular matrix. Methods: Explants from equine

Continuum Robot Stiffness Under External Loads and Prescribed Tendon Displacements

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on robotics, 2019
Soft and continuum robots driven by tendons or cables have wide-ranging applications, and many mechanics-based models for their behavior have been proposed.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Empowering Tendon Regenerative Therapies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Tendon tissues have limited healing capacity. The incidence of tendon injuries and the unsatisfactory functional outcomes of tendon repair are driving the search for alternative therapeutic approaches envisioning tendon regeneration.

Do Outcomes of Arthroscopic Subscapularis Tendon Repairs Depend on Rotator Cuff Fatty Infiltration? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background:Rotator cuff fatty infiltration has been correlated with poorer radiographic and clinical outcomes in supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendon repairs, but this has not been well-studied in subscapularis tendon repairs.

Revisiting the continuum model of tendon pathology: what is its merit in clinical practice and research?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016
The pathogenesis of tendinopathy and the primary biological change in the tendon that precipitates pathology have generated several pathoaetiological models in the literature.

Factors Related to Intra-Tendinous Morphology of Achilles Tendon in Runners [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The purpose of this study was to determine and explore factors (age, sex, anthropometry, running and injury/pain history, tendon gross morphology, neovascularization, ankle range of motion, and ankle plantarflexor muscle endurance) related to intra ...

The impact of loading, unloading, ageing and injury on the human tendon

open access: yesJournal of Physiology, 2018
A tendon transfers force from the contracting muscle to the skeletal system to produce movement and is therefore a crucial component of the entire muscle‐tendon complex and its function.

Targeting danger molecules in tendinopathy: the HMGB1/TLR4 axis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: To seek evidence of the danger molecule, high-mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) expression in human tendinopathy and thereafter, to explore mechanisms where HMGB1 may regulate inflammatory mediators and matrix regulation in human tendinopathy.

Novel Model of Tendon Regeneration Reveals Distinct Cell Mechanisms Underlying Regenerative and Fibrotic Tendon Healing

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
To date, the cell and molecular mechanisms regulating tendon healing are poorly understood. Here, we establish a novel model of tendon regeneration using neonatal mice and show that neonates heal via formation of a ‘neo-tendon’ that differentiates along ...

Ultrasound elastography: compression elastography and shear-wave elastography in the assessment of tendon injury

open access: yesInsights into Imaging, 2018
Ultrasound elastography (USE) is a recent technology that has experienced major developments in the past two decades. The assessment of the main mechanical properties of tissues can be made with this technology by characterisation of their response to ...
