Abstract
Tendon injuries are accounted for up to 50% of musculoskeletal injuries and often result in poor outcomes. Inflammation is a major hallmark of tendon regeneration. Therefore, we analyzed in this study whether the topical application of the pro-inflammatory mediator macrophage-activating lipoprotein (MALP)-2 improves the healing of partial tendon injuries. C57BL/6 mice underwent a partial tenotomy of the flexor digitorum longus tendon of the left...
