    Immortalized murine tenocyte cells: a novel and innovative tool for tendon research

    Primary tenocytes rapidly undergo senescence and a phenotypic drift upon in vitro monolayer culture, which limits tendon research. The Ink4a/Arf locus encodes the proteins p16Ink4a/Arf and p14ARF (p19ARF in mice)...

    Species variations in tenocytes’ response to inflammation require careful selection of animal models for tendon research

    For research on tendon injury, many different animal models are utilized; however, the extent to which these species simulate the clinical condition and disease pathophysiology has not yet been critically eval...
