The tensile properties of collagen fascicles harvested from regenerated and residual tissues in the patellar tendon after removal of the central thirdEijiro Maeda
Biomechanics Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Science and Bioengineering, Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University, Toyonaka, Osaka, Japan
Biomed Mater Eng 17:77-85. 2007..The properties of fascicles from the residual tissue were similar to those from normal tendons, which was very much different from those of the bulk residual tissue that were greatly deteriorated by the removal of the central portion...
Time dependence of cyclic tensile strain on collagen production in tendon fasciclesEijiro Maeda
Medical Engineering Division and IRC in Biomedical Materials, School of Engineering and Material Science, Queen Mary, University of London, Mile End Road, London E1 4NS, UK
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 362:399-404. 2007..These results indicate that collagen synthesis by tenocytes is controlled by a complex mechanosensitive process with a temporal component...
Effects of stress shielding and subsequent restressing on mechanical properties of regenerated and residual tissues in rabbit patellar tendon after resection of its central one-thirdEijiro Maeda
Biomechanics Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Science and Bioengineering, Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University, Toyonaka, Osaka, Japan
J Biomech 42:1592-7. 2009..Therefore, SS induces detrimental effects on the mechanical integrity of healing PTs, and the response to RS was different between regenerate and residual tissues, the latter of which took longer period to reach NSS level...
Functional analysis of tenocytes gene expression in tendon fascicles subjected to cyclic tensile strainEijiro Maeda
Medical Engineering Division and IRC in Biomedical Materials, School of Engineering and Materials Science, Queen Mary, University of London, London, UK
Connect Tissue Res 51:434-44. 2010..The present results suggest that the metabolic balance was shifted in favor of catabolism by the application of a small number of tensile strain cycles, whereas an extended number stimulates strong anti-catabolic effects...
Effects of maturation on the mechanical properties of regenerated and residual tissues in the rabbit patellar tendon after resection of its central one-thirdEijiro Maeda
Biomechanics Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Science and Bioengineering, Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University, Toyonaka, Osaka, Japan
Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 25:953-8. 2010....
Differential regulation of gene expression in isolated tendon fascicles exposed to cyclic tensile strain in vitroEijiro Maeda
School of Engineering and Materials Science, Queen Mary, Uniersity of London, London, E1 4NS, UK
J Appl Physiol 106:506-12. 2009..These findings demonstrate distinctive patterns of mechanoregulation for anabolic and catabolic genes and help our understanding of tenocyte response to mechanical stimulation...
Gap junction permeability between tenocytes within tendon fascicles is suppressed by tensile loadingEijiro Maeda
School of Engineering and Materials Science, Queen Mary, University of London, Mile End Road, London, E1 4NS, UK
Biomech Model Mechanobiol 11:439-47. 2012..This is therefore the first study to show that tenocyte gap junctions are not only important in transmitting mechanically activated signals but that mechanical loading directly regulates gap junction permeability...
