Abstract:
AbstractTendon stores, releases, and dissipates energy to efficiently transmit contractile forces from muscle to bone. Tendon injury is exceedingly common, with the spectrum ranging from chronic tendinopathy to acute tendon rupture. Tendon generally develops according to three main steps: collagen fibrillogenesis, linear growth, and lateral growth. In the setting of injury, it also repairs and regenerates in three overlapping steps (inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling) with tendon-specific durations. Acute injury to the flexor and extensor tendons of the hand are of particular clinical

BMSCs and GDF-5 placed in a collagen gel were interpositioned between the cut ends of dog flexor digitorum profundus tendons. The tendons were randomly assigned into four groups: 1) repaired tendon without gel; 2) repaired tendon with BMSC-seeded gel; 3) repaired tendon with GDF-5 gel without cells; and 4) repaired tendon with GDF-5 treated BMSC-seeded gel.

Background: The paratenon is important for Achilles tendon healing. There is much interest in the use of exogenous growth factors (GFs) as potential agents for accelerating the healing of damaged Achilles tendons. Purpose/Hypothesis: The present study used a rat model to study the responses of the injured Achilles tendon to GFs in the presence or absence of the paratenon. The hypothesis was that responses of the injured tendon to GFs would be lower in the absence of a paratenon. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study.

Abstract:
Tendon experiences a variety of multiscale changes to its extracellular matrix during mechanical loading at the fascicle, fibre and fibril levels. For example, tensile loading of tendon increases its stiffness, with organization of collagen fibres, and increases cell strain in the direction of loading. Although applied macroscale strains correlate to cell and nuclear strains in uninjured tendon, the multiscale response during tendon healing remains unknown and may affect cell mechanosensing and response. Therefore, this study evaluated multiscale structure–function mechanisms in response to qu

Abstract:
Achilles tendon ruptures in humans are followed by a long period of immobilisation, rehabilitation and limitations of physical activity and sometimes work also. This prolonged period probably leaves a marginal for improvement in the management of this injury. Animal studies have shown that there are several possibilities to influence and improve tendon healing. The aim of this thesis was to find a way to examine the mechanical properties of the healing human Achilles tendon and, by using that method, to gain a better understanding of the tissue properties and healing process in these tendons.

Abstract:
Tendon injuries are common yet often fail to heal naturally, especially in cases in which the native tendon-to-bone insertion site is disrupted. Surgical tendon repairs are often limited by the inability of the ruptured tendon to functionally attach back to the underlying bone. For patients with tendon injuries, poor tendon-to-bone integration prolongs recovery time and increases the risk of re-rupture. Improvements in tendon repair will require a more complete understanding of both the biological and mechanical phenomena that occur during natural tendon-to-bone healing. Mechanical studies of

As a result, the process of development has been postulated as a potential paradigm through which improved tissue healing may occur.

Abstract:
A transition zone forms at the attachment of tendon to bone during post-natal development [1]. We previously showed that this transitional tissue reduces stress concentrations at the insertion and hence reduces the risk for failure [2]. During tendon-to-bone healing, on the other hand, a transition zone does not develop at the interface [3]. Unlike development, inferior scar tissue fills the repair site and the repair is prone to rupture at the attachment. Understanding the development of the insertion will allow us to develop solutions to augment tendon-to-bone healing.

Abstract:
Musculoskeletal injuries are a common cause of pain and disability, and result in significant health care costs. Rotator cuff injuries, which make up the majority of soft tissue injuries to the upper extremity, commonly require surgical repair to the humeral head. At the rotator cuff, for example, the recurrence of tears to surgically repaired tendons has been reported to be as high as 94% [1]. The most dramatic feature of the failed tendon-to-bone healing scenarios is the lack of a transition zone between the tendon and bone that existed before the injury [2].
