Ultrasound diagnostics of muscle and tendon injuries [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2009
Introduction. Sonography is a useful technique for the investigation of a number of musculoskeletal disorders. The most common indication for ultrasonography of muscles and tendons is the diagnosis of traumatic lesions, distinguishing them from other ...

CD206+ tendon resident macrophages and their potential crosstalk with fibroblasts and the ECM during tendon growth and maturation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Resident macrophages exist in a variety of tissues, including tendon, and play context-specific roles in their tissue of residence. In this study, we define the spatiotemporal distribution and phenotypic profile of tendon resident macrophages and their ...

Mechanisms of tendon injury and repair

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, 2015
Tendon disorders are common and lead to significant disability, pain, healthcare cost, and lost productivity. A wide range of injury mechanisms exist leading to tendinopathy or tendon rupture.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Effect of Physical Parameters and Training Load on Patellar Tendon Stiffness in Professional Athletes

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Background: Injuries of the patellar tendon commonly occur as a result of mechanical loading of the tendon during physical activity. Shear wave elastography (SWE) is an established technique for assessing tendon stiffness, and has good interindividual ...

A Comparison of the Mechanical Properties of ECM Components and Synthetic Self‐Assembling Peptides

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐assembling peptide hydrogels are increasingly utilized in biomedical applications. The authors review the key mechanical properties of these structures across multiple size scales and compare them to that of native extracellular matrix components, which are found to display a much wider range of structural attributes.

The Effects of Downhill Running and Maturation on Histological and Morphological Properties of Tendon and Enthesis in Mice

open access: yesBiology, 2023
To date, it remains unclear how overuse affects the tendons and entheses at different stages of maturation. Therefore, we evaluated histological and morphological changes in the tendons and entheses in adolescent (4-week-old) and adult mice (8-week-old ...

Gastrocnemius and Power Amplifier Soleus Spring-Tendons Achieve Fast Human-like Walking in a Bipedal Robot [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Legged locomotion in humans is governed by natural dynamics of the human body and neural control. One mechanism that is assumed to contribute to the high efficiency of human walking is the impulsive ankle push-off, which potentially powers the swing leg catapult.

Probiotic‐Based Mineralized Living Materials to Produce Antimicrobial Yogurts

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The self‐assembly and mineralization of collagen in the presence of probiotics produces hybrid living materials that hosts and protects the cells. Intra‐ and interfibrillar mineralization of collagen fibers, as occurring in bone, results, respectively, in a bulk and single‐cell protective layer of cells, that survive in simulated gastric conditions and,

Gene Therapy Using Plasmid DNA Encoding Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor 164 and Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 Genes for the Treatment of Horse Tendinitis and Desmitis: Case Reports

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2017
In this clinical study, for the first time we used the direct gene therapy to restore severe injuries of the suspensory ligament branch and superficial digital flexor tendon in horses (Equus caballus). We injected the plasmid DNA encoding two therapeutic
