Compartment-Resolved Matrisome Shifts During Postnatal Tendon Maturation in Mice

Benjamin E Peterson, David Ceja Galindo, Maxwell C McCabe, Jenna L Galloway

This study uses compartment-resolved proteomics to analyze changes in the tendon matrisome during postnatal maturation in mice, revealing distinct trajectories in soluble and insoluble ECM components.

Mechanical Stimulation via Muscle Activity is Necessary for the Maturation of Tendon Multiscale Mechanics during Embryonic Development

Benjamin E. Peterson, Rebecca A. Rolfe, Allen R. Kunselman…·Spencer E. Szczesny

This study shows that mechanical stimulation via muscle activity is necessary for tendon maturation during embryonic development, as it affects both macroscale mechanics and microscale collagen structure.
