Understanding the structure and mechanics of the sheep calcaneal enthesis: a relevant animal model for tissue engineering applications

2024-12-25

Abstract excerpt

Tendon/enthesis injuries are a worldwide clinical problem. Along the enthesis, collagen fibrils show a progressive loss of anisotropy and an increase in mineralization reaching the bone. This causes gradients of mechanical properties. The design of scaffolds to regenerate these load-bearing tissues requires of being validated in vivo in relevant large animal models. The sheep tendon of triceps surae muscle is an...
