The paper shows that muscle contraction regulates TGFβ signaling and epitenon formation during embryonic tendon development, leading to structural and functional deficits in paralyzed tendons.

This study shows that tendon inversion improves bone tunnel healing in rats by disrupting the epitendinous surface and enhancing collagen alignment and tensile strength.

This study identifies BMP-Smad4 signaling in myotendon elongation as a driver of neuromuscular contracture, offering a new therapeutic target.

This study identifies TGFβ signaling as critical for neonatal tendon regeneration by promoting tenocyte recruitment and functional recovery.
