Elastin is Localised to the Interfascicular Matrix of Energy Storing Tendons and Becomes Increasingly Disorganised With Ageing [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
Tendon is composed of fascicles bound together by the interfascicular matrix (IFM). Energy storing tendons are more elastic and extensible than positional tendons; behaviour provided by specialisation of the IFM to enable repeated interfascicular sliding

The effects of mechanical loading on tendons--an in vivo and in vitro model study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Mechanical loading constantly acts on tendons, and a better understanding of its effects on the tendons is essential to gain more insights into tendon patho-physiology.

Functional regeneration and repair of tendons using biomimetic scaffolds loaded with recombinant periostin

Nature Communications, 2021
Tendon injuries disrupt the balance between stability and mobility, causing compromised functions and disabilities. The regeneration of mature, functional tendons remains a clinical challenge.

Tendon’s ultrastructure [PDF]

Muscle Ligaments and Tendons Journal, 2013
The structure of a tendon is an important example of complexity of ECM three-dimensional organization. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a macromolecular network with both structural and regulatory functions. ECM components belong to four major types of macromolecules: the collagens, elastin, proteoglycans, and noncollagenous glycoproteins. Tendons are

Single-cell Transcriptomic Analyses Identifies Extensive Heterogeneity in the Cellular Composition of Mouse Achilles Tendons.

American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2020
Tendon is a dense connective tissue that stores and transmits forces between muscles and bones. Cellular heterogeneity is increasingly recognized as an important factor in the biological basis of tissue homeostasis and disease, yet little is known about ...

Versican splice variant messenger RNA expression in normal human Achilles tendon and tendinopathies [PDF]

, 2004
Versican is the principal large proteoglycan expressed in mid-tendon, but its role in tendon pathology is unknown. Our objective was to define the expression of versican isoform splice variant messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in normal Achilles tendons,

Iliopsoas Tendon Reformation after Psoas Tendon Release [PDF]

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2013
Internal snapping hip syndrome, or psoas tendonitis, is a recognised cause of nonarthritic hip pain. The majority of patients are treated conservatively; however, occasionally patients require surgical intervention. The two surgical options for iliopsoas tendinopathy are step lengthening of the iliopsoas tendon or releasing the tendon at the lesser ...

Patellar Tendon Morphology in Trans-tibial Amputees Utilizing a Prosthesis with a Patellar-tendon- Bearing Feature [PDF]

, 2019
A patellar-tendon-bearing (PTB) bar is a common design feature used in the socket of trans-tibial prostheses to place load on the pressure-tolerant tissue.
