The tendon interfascicular basement membrane provides a vascular niche for CD146 <sup>+</sup> pericyte cell subpopulations
2022-10-14
Abstract excerpt
The interfascicular matrix (IFM) is critical to the mechanical adaptations and response to load in energy-storing tendons, such as the human Achilles and equine superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT). We hypothesized that the IFM is a tendon progenitor cell niche housing an exclusive cell subpopulation. Immunolabelling of equine SDFT was used to identify the IFM niche, localising expression patterns of CD31 (end...
