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]
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

Deletion of EP4 in S100a4-lineage cells reduces scar tissue formation during early but not later stages of tendon healing [PDF]
Tendon injuries heal via scar tissue rather than regeneration. This healing response forms adhesions between the flexor tendons in the hand and surrounding tissues, resulting in impaired range of motion and hand function.

EGR1 Regulates Transcription Downstream of Mechanical Signals during Tendon Formation and Healing. [PDF]
Tendon is a mechanical tissue that transmits forces generated by muscle to bone in order to allow body motion. The molecular pathways that sense mechanical forces during tendon formation, homeostasis and repair are not known.

The role of the macrophage in tendinopathy and tendon healing
The role of the macrophage is an area of emerging interest in tendinopathy and tendon healing. The macrophage has been found to play a key role in regulating the healing process of the healing tendon.

Mesenchymal stem cells and macrophages and their interactions in tendon-bone healing
Tendon-bone insertion injuries (TBI), such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and rotator cuff injuries, are common degenerative or traumatic pathologies with a negative impact on the patient's daily life, and they cause huge economic losses every year.

Establishing in vivo and ex vivo chick embryo models to investigate fetal tendon healing
Injured adult tendons heal fibrotically and possess high re-injury rates, whereas fetal tendons appear to heal scarlessly. However, knowledge of fetal tendon wound healing is limited due in part to the need for an accessible animal model.

Effects of immobilization angle on tendon healing after achilles rupture in a rat model [PDF]
Conservative (non‐operative) treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures is a common alternative to operative treatment. Following rupture, ankle immobilization in plantarflexion is thought to aid healing by restoring tendon end‐to‐end apposition.
