## Abstract Mechanical loading of articular cartilage can influence chondrocyte metabolism and lead to alterations in cartilage matrix composition. Most previous studies have focused on the effect of cyclic loading on cartilage mechanical properties and proteoglycan synthesis. However, the role of
## Abstract Tendon overuse injuries are a major source of clinical concern. Cyclic loading causes material damage and induces biochemical responses in tendon. The purpose of this study was to examine the biochemical and biomechanical tendon response after applying cyclical loading over varying dura
