Dynamic Stretching of Fibrillar Collagen Enhances Cross-linking by Transglutaminas
Category: Basic Sciences/Biologics Introduction/Purpose: New approaches to improve tendon repair after injury are an active area of research. Critical properties of tendons are governed by the production and assembly of fibrillar collagens. Cross-linking of fibrillar collagen is a primary factor in...
