Anatomical heterogeneity of tendon: Fascicular and interfascicular tendon compartments have distinct proteomic composition

Tendon is a simple aligned fibre composite, consisting of collagen-rich fascicles surrounded by a softer interfascicular matrix (IFM). The composition and interactions between these material phases are fundamental in ensuring tissue mechanics meet functional requirements. However the IFM is poorly d...
