Biology and physiology of tendon healing

open access: yesJoint Bone Spine
Tendon disorders affect people of all ages, from elite and recreational athletes and workers to elderly patients. After an acute injury, 3 successive phases are described to achieve healing: an inflammatory phase followed by a proliferative phase, and finally by a remodeling phase.

Clinical aspects of tendon healing [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
We know that healing of a tendon wound takes place by an invasion of fibreblasts from the surrounding tissues; the tendon itself has no intrinsic healing capacity.

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

Conditioned Media from Mechanically Stimulated Macrophages Upregulate Osteogenic Genes in Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone fracture healing is a complex, timely orchestrated scenario involving multiple cell types and a plethora of cytokines and regulatory factors. To gain further insight, an in vitro model to a) study macrophage polarization under mechanical load in a fibrin hydrogel and b) subsequently assess the effect of conditioned media derived from macrophages ...

3D Bioprinting‐Assisted Engineering of Stem Cell‐Laden Hybrid Biopatches With Distinct Geometric Patterns Considering the Mechanical Characteristics of Regular and Irregular Connective Tissues

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid biopatch platform integrating 3D printed polymeric patterns with stem cell‐laden collagen bioinks is developed to mimic the mechanical properties of connective tissues. By tailoring geometric architectures, the constructs replicate anisotropic or isotropic mechanics, enhancing tissue‐specific regeneration.

Models of tendon development and injury

open access: yesBMC Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Tendons link muscle to bone and transfer forces necessary for normal movement. Tendon injuries can be debilitating and their intrinsic healing potential is limited.

Inflammation and tendon healing

open access: yes, 2017
Tendons heal through three different overlapping phases; the inflammatory, proliferative and remodeling phase. Many studies have investigated what factors influence healing of tendons.

Tendon Healing with Growth Factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The incidence of sport injuries has increased in recent years due to fitness training and growing participation in sport activities by the general public. The tendon rupture was regarded as an injury typical of high-performance athletes. As physical and recreational activities become more and more popular followed by an increased frequency of soft ...
