An investigation into accelerated rehabilitation strategies following an achilles tendon rupture [PDF]

Background Rupture of the Achilles tendon occurs in over 11,000 people annually in the UK. Traditional management using cast immobilisation is being slowly replaced by immediate weight bearing rehabilitation, but currently there is no consensus ...

Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cell injection into the KI10 acupoint mitigates cartilage damage in KOA rats through PGE2‐mediated α7nAChR/NF‐κB pathway

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In our research, KOA rat models were established and treated with ADSC injection into the KI10 acupoint. Pain relief, behavioral function, and joint structural improvements were systematically assessed using ethological tests, imaging, histopathological staining, transmission electron microscopy, and molecular analyses.

Marine‐Derived Type I Collagen From Scyliorhinus canicula: Extraction, Characterization, and Biomedical Applications

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Marine‐derived type I collagen is extracted from Scyliorhinus canicula skin and characterized by physicochemical and morphological analyses. The collagen exhibits excellent biocompatibility, promotes wound healing, reduces inflammatory mediators, and inhibits melanogenesis.

Lagomorph cranial biomechanics and the functional significance of the unique fenestrated rostrum of leporids

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

In vitro comparison of equine tendon- and bone marrow-derived cells expanded with FGF-2 prior to culturing with tendon matrix and IGF-I [PDF]

, 2010
This study was performed to determine the effects of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) on monolayer expansion of equine tendon- and bone marrow-derived cells prior to culture with autogenous acellular tendon matrix and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF ...

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

Quantitative computed tomography analysis of bone microarchitecture is associated with rotator cuff healing

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Rotator cuff repair in patients with osteoporosis (OP) is often hindered by poor tendon-to-bone healing and a high rate of retears, largely due to compromised bone remodeling at the repair site.

Augmentation of Rotator Cuff Repair With Soft Tissue Scaffolds

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2015
Background Tears of the rotator cuff are one of the most common tendon disorders. Treatment often includes surgical repair, but the rate of failure to gain or maintain healing has been reported to be as high as 94%. This has been substantially attributed

Improving the Healing of Tendon to Bone

, 2022
Background: With an aging and active population, injuries at the tendon-bone interface are a leading cause of morbidity. Rotator cuff and hip abductor tendon tears are commonly encountered in orthopaedic practice.
