This study uses an ex vivo laser-induced microdamage model to show that tendon cells can clear microdamage regardless of size, with larger injuries showing more robust clearance over time.

This study investigates how aged tendons respond to mechanical strain, finding reduced adaptability and a shifted mechanical setpoint compared to young tendons.

The paper identifies vwde expression as a conserved feature of blastemas involved in appendage regeneration across species and shows its functional requirement in regeneration.
