Tendons play a fundamental role in connecting muscle belly to bone, transmitting contraction forces to generate movement. Mainly composed of collagen, tendons consist of approximately 95% type I collagen and less than 10% type III collagen. Conditions such as tendinopathies, aging, and physical activity increase susceptibility to injuries. The Achilles tendon is frequently injured, accoun…
Tendons are composed of dense fibrous connective tissue, primarily made up of tenoblasts and tenocytes, which represent 90-95% of the cells. The extracellular matrix (ECM) of tendons is rich in collagen, with type I being the most abundant, providing mechanical strength, while type III, present in smaller quantities, plays a key role in tissue repair. Factors such as age, hormonal changes…
Achilles tendon of triceps surae is constituted for dense connective tissue, which function is transmitting force of contraction of muscle proteins to osseous tissue. Tendons are fundamental to skeletal movements and stability of the ligament and joint due bone insertion. This interface region between tendinous and osseous tissue is called bone-tendon junction. Although described the way …
