Differential Smad2/3 linker phosphorylation is a crosstalk mechanism of Rho/ROCK and canonical TGF-β3 signaling in tenogenic differentiation [PDF]
The transforming growth factor (TGF)-β3 is a well-known inducer for tenogenic differentiation, signaling via the Smad2/3 pathway. Furthermore, other factors like extracellular matrix or mechanical force can induce tenogenic differentiation and possibly ...

Circ_0005736 promotes tenogenic differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells through the miR-636/MAPK1 axis [PDF]
Background Tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) are one of stem cells characterized by greater clonogenicity, tenogenesis, and proliferation capacity. Circ_0005736 has been shown to be decreased in Rotator cuff tendinopathy.

Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Tendon Integrity, Biomechanical Strength, Matrix Remodeling, Inflammation, Angiogenesis, and Tenogenic Differentiation in Rotator Cuff Injury. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) improves tendon‐bone healing after rotator cuff injury (RCI), but its underlying cellular mechanisms remain unknown. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic effects of ESWT on RCI, with a particular focus on endothelial cells and tenocytes.
