Biomimetic Scaffolds for Tendon Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2023
Tendon tissue connects muscle to bone and plays crucial roles in stress transfer. Tendon injury remains a significant clinical challenge due to its complicated biological structure and poor self-healing capacity.

Novel strategies in tendon and ligament tissue engineering: Advanced biomaterials and regeneration motifs

open access: yesSports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation, Therapy & Technology, 2010
Tendon and ligaments have poor healing capacity and when injured often require surgical intervention. Tissue replacement via autografts and allografts are non-ideal strategies that can lead to future problems.

Evaluation of iota-carrageenan as a Potential Tissue Engineering Scaffold [PDF]

open access: yes
The present study evaluates the use of iota-carrageenan as a potential tissue engineering scaffold. Cell viability and cell attachment studies were performed on 3T3 fibroblasts cultured for a period of 12 days on the surface and when encapsulated within ...

Tendon is covered by a basement membrane epithelium that is required for cell retention and the prevention of adhesion formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The ability of tendons to glide smoothly during muscle contraction is impaired after injury by fibrous adhesions that form between the damaged tendon surface and surrounding tissues. To understand how adhesions form we incubated excised tendons in fibrin

In vitro characterization of immune-related properties of human fetal bone cells for potential tissue engineering applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We describe herein some immunological properties of human fetal bone cells recently tested for bone tissue-engineering applications. Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts were included in the study for comparison.

The effect of polystyrene sodium sulfonate grafting on polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligaments on in vitro mineralisation and in vivo bone tissue integration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study investigates the impact of polystyrene sodium sulfonate (PolyNaSS) grafting onto the osseointegration of a polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament (Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System, LARS ) used for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).

Second harmonic generation confocal microscopy of collagen type I from rat tendon cryosections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We performed second harmonic generation (SHG) imaging of collagen in rat-tendon cryosections, using femtosecond laser scanning confocal microscopy, both in backscattering and transmission geometries.
