Hydrogel dimensionality directs mechanics-dependent nascent matrix deposition by tendon fibroblasts
Tendon fibroblasts continuously synthesize and remodel extracellular matrix (ECM) in response to their surrounding mechanical environment in vivo and in vitro, yet how dimensionality regulates the deposition of newly synthesized matrix remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated nascent matrix deposition by primary mouse tail tendon fibroblasts cultured on flat two-dimensional (2D) or…
