Bioengineered strategies for tendon regeneration

Their important mechanical function predisposes tendons to injury and rupture, becoming a worldwide clinical problem. Commonly injured tendons include the rotator cuff, finger flexors, patellar, and Achilles tendon [1]. As poor cellular and vascular tissues [2], tendons present some healing constrai...
