Abstract
AbstractCell migration plays a key role in tendon wound healing. The migration characteristics of tenocytes can be motivated by external signals. Our study aims to examine and enhance the migration activities of tenocytes by the appliance of uniaxial mechanical stretch using a custom‐made tensile bioreactor. Uniaxial mechanical stretching is applied to tenocyte‐seeded silicone as well as collagen membranes, which possess different material characteristics. The collagen membranes are considered a promising candidate for tendon tissue engineering due to its biological properties.
