Tendon and ligament: Development, repair and disease

Tozer, Samuel, Duprez, Delphine·2005·Birth Defects Research Part C: Embryo Today: Reviews

Abstract

Tendons and ligaments (T/L) are very similar fibrous tissues that respectively connect muscle to bone and bone to bone. They are comprised of fibroblasts that produce large amounts of extra‐cellular matrix, resulting in a dense and hypocellular structure. The complex molecular organization of T/L, together with high water content, are responsible for their viscoelastic properties, hence insuring their mechanical function. We will first review recent work on tendon embryology and discuss ligament formation, which has been less documented. We will next summarize our current knowledge of T/L molecular architecture, alterations of which are a major cause for disease. We will finally focus on T/L repair after injury and on genetic diseases responsible for T/L defects. Birth Defects Research (Part C) 75:226–236, 2005. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
