Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of medicine and biomedical engineering, and more specifically relates to tissue-engineered tendon and its preparation method and application. Background technique
[0002] Tendon is a bundle of dense collagen fibrous connective tissue that connects the belly of skeletal muscle to bone, and is an integral part of skeletal muscle. The structure of the tendon can be regarded as the continuation and degeneration of the muscle. The tendons of fresh specimens are silvery-white, cord-like, and tough in texture. There are ripples on the surface in the relaxed state. If the tension exceeds 4% of the relaxed state, the ripples will disappear, and the ripples will reappear after the tension is removed. Tendons and muscles differ markedly in morphology, structure, and function. Muscle is a highly specialized tissue with contractility, rich blood supply, strong metabolism, and strong anti-infection ability; while tendo...
