The response of tenocytes to commercial scaffolds used for rotator cuff repair

The response of tenocytes to commercial scaffolds used for rotator cuff repair

Surgical repairs of rotator cuff tears have high re-tear rates and many scaffolds have been developed to augment the repair. Understanding the interaction between patients’ cells and scaffolds is important for improving scaffold performance and tendon healing. In this in vitro study, we investigate...
