Abstract

Methods and Results Tendinosis is the most prevalent form of overuse tendon injuries, impairing 30 to 50 million people worldwide. Tendinosis results from degeneration of tendon cells and collagen fibres caused by repetitive tendon usage and aging. Currently available treatments for tendinosis do not often mediate complete recovery and leave individuals immobilized for several months. Cell-based regenerative medicine therapies have generated considerable amount of research interest in the recent years and could provide great potential in treating chronic conditions, such as tendinosis.
