Biological Signaling Pathways Associated with Late Tendon Development in Chicken Embryos and Their Dependence on Mechanical Stimulation
During embryonic and neonatal development, tendons exhibit rapid changes in mechanics and structure, including increases in collagen content, crosslinking, and fibril length. These functional and structural changes are partly dependent on mechanical stimulation. However, the specific mechanobiological mechanisms driving these changes remain poorly understood. The objective of this study was to…
