Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator mediates tenogenic differentiation of tendon‐derived stem cells and tendon repair: accelerating tendon injury healing by intervening in its downstream signaling
11 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Tendons are a mechanosensitive tissue, which enables them to transmit to bone forces that are derived from muscle. Patients with tendon injuries, such as tendinopathy or tendon rupture, were often observed with matrix degeneration, and the healing of tendon injuries remains a challenge as a result of the limited understanding of tendon biology. Our study demonstrates that the stretch‐mediated activation...
