Transcriptomic Analysis of Tendon Healing Using an Extracellular Matrix-Coated, Polyurethane Scaffold [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineering
Large rotator cuff tendon injuries pose a dual clinical challenge: poor inherent healing capacity and high mechanical demands. To address this, we have developed a bifunctional scaffold that combines a slow-degrading, mechanically robust polyurethane ...

Reparative and Maladaptive Inflammation in Tendon Healing

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Tendon injuries are common and debilitating, with non-regenerative healing often resulting in chronic disease. While there has been considerable progress in identifying the cellular and molecular regulators of tendon healing, the role of inflammation in ...

Strategies to promote tendon-bone healing after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Present and future

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
At present, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction still has a high failure rate. Tendon graft and bone tunnel surface angiogenesis and bony ingrowth are the main physiological processes of tendon-bone healing, and also the main reasons for the ...

PDGF-loaded microneedles promote tendon healing through p38/cyclin D1 pathway mediated angiogenesis

open access: yesMaterials Today Bio, 2022
Tendon injury is one of the most serious orthopedic diseases often leading to disability of patients. Major shortages of tendon healing are due to its multiple comorbidities, uncertainty of therapeutic efficacy and insufficient of angiogenesis.

Basic Research on Tendon Repair: Strategies, Evaluation, and Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Tendon is a fibro-elastic structure that links muscle and bone. Tendon injury can be divided into two types, chronic and acute. Each type of injury or degeneration can cause substantial pain and the loss of tendon function. The natural healing process of

Depletion of Scleraxis-lineage cells during tendon healing transiently impairs multi-scale restoration of tendon structure during early healing

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Tendons are composed of a heterogeneous cell environment, with Scleraxis-lineage (ScxLin) cells being the predominant population. Although ScxLin cells are required for maintenance of tendon homeostasis, their functions during tendon healing are unknown.
