Scleraxis-Lineage Cell Depletion Improves Tendon Healing and Disrupts Adult Tendon Homeostasis

K. T. Best, A. Korcari, K. E. Mora, E. Knapp, M. R. Buckley, A. E. Loiselle

This study depletes Scleraxis-lineage cells in adult tendons and finds improved biomechanical properties and altered collagen structure, suggesting a role in homeostasis rather than repair.

Scleraxis Lineage Cells Contribute to Organized Bridging Tissue During Tendon Healing, and Identifies Subpopulations of Resident Tendon Cells

K. T. Best, A. Loiselle

This study shows Scleraxis lineage cells form an organized bridge during tendon healing and identify distinct subpopulations of tendon cells.

Deletion Of EP4 In S100a4-Lineage Cells Reduces Scar Tissue Formation During Early But Not Later Stages Of Tendon Healing

J. E. Ackerman, K. T. Best, R. J. O'Keefe, A. Loiselle

This study shows that deleting EP4 in S100a4-lineage cells reduces scar tissue formation early in tendon healing but not later, with increased EP4-expressing myofibroblasts contributing to impaired gliding function later.
