INTRODUCTION Tendons establish specific connections between muscles and the skeleton by transferring contraction forces from skeletal muscle to bone thereby allowing body movement. Tendon physiology and pathology are heavily dependent on mechanical stimuli. Tendon injuries clinically represent a serious and still unresolved problem since damaged tendon tissues heal very slowly and no surgical t...

JIA has a prevalence of approximately 130 per 100,000 children. The classification has recently been changed (Table 1).

Those who develop systemic or polyarticular disease at a younger age have a higher incidence of destructive joint disease. The common belief is that JIA ‘bu...
متن کاملEngineered Livers for Infectious Diseases
Engineered liver systems come in a variety of platform models, from 2-dimensional cocultures of primary human hepatocytes and stem cell-derived progeny, to 3-dimensional organoids and humanized mice. Because of the species-specificity of many human hepatropic pathogens, these engineered systems have been essential tools for biologic discovery and therapeutic agent development in the context of ...
