Making tendons
10.1083/jcb/1722fta2jcb1722fta2Mitch [email protected] aking tendons C ells are fastidious about their internal conditions. But for scientists trying to decipher how collagen forms structures such as tendons and the cornea, the big question 30 years ago was how much control cells exert over their surroundings. In a tendon, for example, colla...
متن کاملUltrastructure of Achilles tendons of rats treated with ofloxacin and fed a normal or magnesium-deficient diet.
Fluoroquinolones can cause tendinitis and tendon rupture. However, toxicological as well as clinical information on quinolone-induced tendopathy is scarce. We performed extensive electron microscopic studies with Achilles tendon specimens from ofloxacin-treated rats. The drug was given at a dose of 1,200 mg/kg (body weight) orally. Juvenile Wistar rats received one or three oral doses each of 1...
متن کاملImaging of Tendons
Both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and sonography are well suited to tendon imaging. A normal tendon on MRI demonstrates low signal intensity and on sonography, an echogenic fibrillar pattern. MRI is considered the imaging gold standard, providing an anatomic overview and excellent soft tissue contrast. Sonography is a more rapidly performed examination; it has greater resolution than that o...
متن کاملTissue Engineering of Tendons
Rupture of tendons due to either high load or laceration is a common injury, especially for the hand. Tendon disorders are traditionally treated by reducing inflammation, restoring flexibility, and, if necessary, performing surgical repair. It has been estimated that hand surgeons repair nearly one-third of a million digital flexor tendon injuries per year in the United States. Despite the fact...
متن کاملTendons – time to revisit inflammation
It is currently widely accepted among clinicians that chronic tendinopathy is caused by a degenerative process devoid of inflammation. Current treatment strategies are focused on physical treatments, peritendinous or intratendinous injections of blood or blood products and interruption of painful stimuli. Results have been at best, moderately good and at worst a failure. The evidence for non-in...
