Tendinopathy and the extracellular matrix：to deeply study the key proteins and enzymes in the bone-tendon junction / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:In recent years, research on tendinopathy is becoming a hot topic in the sports medicine and rehabilitation, and the extracelular matrix plays a considerable role in the occurrence, development and healing of tendinopathy. OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between tendinopathy and the extracelular matrix. METHODS: CNKI, VIP, CBM, Wanfang, PubMed and Embase were retrieved for articles related to colagen, protein, glycoprotein and matrix remodeling published since 2000. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After tendinopathy, there are obvious changes in colagen, proteoglycans, glycoprotein and related enzymes; and these changes also affect the reconstruction and repair of tendinopathy. Currently, most of researches focus on the tendon rather than the bone-tendon junction. This means that there are no in-depth studies on the correlation between many important proteins and tendinopathy, and the effects of exercise intervention.
