Targeting the NF-κB signaling pathway in chronic tendon disease
Science Translational Medicine, 2019 Inhibition of IKKβ/NF-κB in stromal cells prevents degeneration and improves healing, representing a potential therapeutic for chronic tendinopathy. Targeting tendinopathy Inflammation and NF-κB signaling contribute to tendon degeneration and injury ...

The Lack of a Representative Tendinopathy Model Hampers Fundamental Mesenchymal Stem Cell Research
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Overuse tendon injuries are a major cause of musculoskeletal morbidity in both human and equine athletes, due to the cumulative degenerative damage. These injuries present significant challenges as the healing process often results in the formation of ...

A microstructural model of tendon failure [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Collagen fibrils are the most important structural component of tendons. Their crimped structure and parallel arrangement within the tendon lead to a distinctive non-linear stress-strain curve when a tendon is stretched. Microstructural models can be used to relate microscale collagen fibril mechanics to macroscale tendon mechanics, allowing us to ...

A new strain energy function for modelling ligaments and tendons whose fascicles have a helical arrangement of fibrils [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics 48 (2015) 3017-3025, 2015 A new strain energy function for the hyperelastic modelling of ligaments and tendons whose fascicles have a helical arrangement of fibrils is derived. The stress-strain response of a single fascicle whose fibrils exhibit varying levels of crimp throughout its radius is calculated and used to determine the form of the strain energy function.
