Aligned Nanofiber Topography Directs the Tenogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Tendon is commonly injured, heals slowly and poorly, and often suffers re-injury after healing. This is due to failure of tenocytes to effectively remodel tendon after injury to recapitulate normal architecture, resulting in poor mechanical properties. One strategy for improving the outcome is to us...
