Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is characterized by the infiltration of innate and adaptive immune
cells into entheses and bone marrow. Molecular, cellular and imaging evidence …

The fibrocartilaginous enthesis is a highly specialised tissue interface that ensures a smooth
mechanical transfer between tendon or ligament and bone through a fibrocartilage area …

The process of mineralization fundamentally alters collagenous tissue biomechanics. While
the structure and organization of mineral particles have been widely studied, the impact of …

Skeletal shape depends on the transmission of contractile muscle forces from tendon to
bone across the enthesis. Loss of muscle loading impairs enthesis development, yet little is …

Hypertrophic chondrocytes are found at unique locations at the junction of skeletal tissues,
cartilage growth plate, articular cartilage, enthesis and intervertebral discs. Their role in the …

The anterior cruciate ligament is anchored to the femur and tibia via specialized interfaces
known as entheses. These play a critical role in ligament homeostasis and joint stability by …

Background Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury could lead to functional impairment
along with disabilities. ACL reconstruction often fails owing to the regeneration failure of …

Exosomes have been proven to play a positive role in tendon and tendon–bone healing.
Here, we systematically review the literature to evaluate the efficacy of exosomes in tendon …

X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by high serum fibroblast growth factor 23
(FGF23) levels, resulting in impaired 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 (1, 25D) production. Adults …

Background In recent years, many countries have actively implemented programs and
strategies to promote physical education and sports. Despite these efforts, the increase in …
