RISSoslowsky Sentiments: H. R. Lissner Medal Presentation
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Short- and Long-Term Exercise Results in a Differential Achilles Tendon Mechanical Response
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The study was conducted to define the biomechanical response of rat Achilles tendon after a single bout of exercise and a short or long duration of daily exercise. We hypothesized that a single bout or a short duration of ...
Regulatory Role of Collagen XI in the Establishment of Mechanical Properties of Tendons and Ligaments in Mice Is Tissue Dependent
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Collagen XI is ubiquitous in tissues such as joint cartilage, cancellous bone, muscles, and tendons and is an important contributor during a crucial part in fibrillogenesis. The COL11A1 gene encodes one of three alpha ...
Pregnancy and Lactation Impair Subchondral Bone Leading to Reduced Rat Supraspinatus Tendon-to-Bone Insertion Site Failure Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pregnant women experience weight gain, gait changes, and biochemical fluctuations that impair joint function and alter the maternal skeleton. Hormonal changes increase pelvic ligament laxity in preparation for childbirth ...
Induced Knockdown of Decorin, Alone and in Tandem With Biglycan Knockdown, Directly Increases Aged Murine Patellar Tendon Viscoelastic Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tendon injuries increase with age, yet the age-associated changes in tendon properties remain unexplained. Decorin and biglycan are two matrix proteoglycans that play complex roles in regulating tendon formation, maturation, ...
Effect of Age and Proteoglycan Deficiency on Collagen Fiber Re Alignment and Mechanical Properties in Mouse Supraspinatus Tendon
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Collagen fiber realignment is one mechanism by which tendon responds to load. Realignment is altered when the structure of tendon is altered, such as in the natural process of aging or with alterations of matrix proteins, ...
Analysis of Collagen Organization in Mouse Achilles Tendon Using High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Achilles tendon ruptures are traumatic injuries, and techniques for assessing repair outcomes rely on patientbased measures of pain and function, which do not directly assess tendon healing. Consequently, there is a need ...
Long-Term Effects of Reproduction and Lactation on the Rat Supraspinatus Tendon and Proximal Humerus
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During pregnancy and breastfeeding, women undergo hormonal fluctuations required for fetal development, parturition, and infant growth. These changes have secondary consequences on the maternal musculoskeletal system, ...
Validation of an Empirical Damage Model for Aging and in Vivo Injury of the Murine Patellar Tendon
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: While useful models have been proposed to predict the mechanical impact of damage in tendon and other soft tissues, the applicability of these models for describing in vivo injury and agerelated degeneration has not been ...
Tensile Mechanical Properties and Dynamic Collagen Fiber Re-Alignment of the Murine Cervix Are Dramatically Altered Throughout Pregnancy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The cervix is a unique organ able to dramatically change its shape and function by serving as a physical barrier for the growing fetus and then undergoing dramatic dilation allowing for delivery of a term infant. As a ...
