The blood-tendon barrier: identification and characterisation of a novel tissue barrier in tendon blood vessels [PDF]
Tissue barriers function as “gate keepers” between different compartments (usually blood and tissue) and are formed by specialised membrane-associated proteins, localising to the apicolateral plasma membrane domain of epithelial and endothelial cells. By

Risk factors associated with tendon adhesions after hand tendon repair
BackgroundTendon adhesions after hand tendon repair are one of the most difficult complications of hand surgery and can cause severe disability. This study aimed to assess the risk factors associated with tendon adhesions after hand tendon repair to ...

Effect of suprascapular nerve injury on muscle and regenerated enthesis in a rat rotator cuff tear model [PDF]
Background Massive rotator cuff tears (RCTs) are complicated by muscle atrophy, fibrosis, and intramuscular fatty degeneration, which are associated with postoperative tendon-to-bone healing failure and poor clinical outcomes.

Extensor tendon injuries have a documented incidence rate of 14 occurrences per 100,000 person-years, making them the most frequent tendon injuries. With an estimated frequency of 17.9 and 9.9 instances per 100,000 people per year, respectively,

Background Tendon injuries are among the most common musculoskeletal disorders. Celecoxib possesses an effective anti-inflammatory activity in the tendon injury treatment. Lactoferrin has a great potential for the tendon regeneration.

Tenophages: a novel macrophage-like tendon cell population expressing CX3CL1 and CX3CR1
Tendon disorders frequently occur and recent evidence has clearly implicated the presence of immune cells and inflammatory events during early tendinopathy. However, the origin and properties of these cells remain poorly defined.

Tendinopathy is accompanied by a cascade of inflammatory events promoting tendon degeneration. Among various cytokines, interleukin-1β plays a central role in driving catabolic processes, ultimately resulting in the activation of matrix ...

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

A high-glucose diet affects Achilles tendon healing in rats
Chronic and acute tendinopathies are difficult to treat and tendon healing is generally a very slow and incomplete process and our general understanding of tendon biology and regeneration lags behind that of muscle or bone.
