Long overlooked in the field of musculoskeletal study, the tendon is a highly complex anatomical structure that triggers a dynamic but mysterious cellular response when it's injured. In a new study in ...

Harnessing nanoparticles to deliver drugs precisely to a surgically repaired tendon is a promising new approach that reduced scar tissue formation and improved mechanical function in a study appearing ...

Tendon healing and regeneration represent critical yet complex areas of musculoskeletal research. Damage to tendons, whether due to acute trauma or chronic overuse, initiates a cascade of biological ...

A new study by researchers at the University of Galway and the University of Limerick suggests that electrical stimulation might be essential for tendons to maintain their health, offering fresh ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new healing mechanism in injured cells called cathartocytosis, in which cells "vomit" out their internal machinery to revert more quickly to a stem cell-like ...

Whether it’s a season-ending Achilles rupture by pro footballer Aaron Rodgers or an everyday workplace accident, tendon injuries are common and can be life-changing. They require 300,000 surgeries per ...

A study suggests that electrical stimulation might be essential for tendons to maintain their health, offering fresh possibilities in tendon repair and regeneration. A new study by researchers at the ...
