Abstract excerpt
Understanding cell recruitment in damaged tendons is critical for improvements in regenerative therapy. We recently reported that targeted disruption of transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) type II receptor in the tendon cell lineage (Tgfbr2ScxCre) resulted in resident tenocyte dedifferentiation and tendon deterioration in postnatal stages. Here we extend the analysis and identify direct recruitment of...
