Driving Hierarchical Collagen Fiber Formation for Functional Tendon, Ligament, and Meniscus Replacement

Hierarchical collagen fibers are the primary source of strength in musculoskeletal tendons, ligaments, and menisci. It has remained a challenge to develop these large fibers in engineered replacements or in vivo after injury. The objective of this study was to investigate the ability of restrained c...
