## Abstract Rotator cuff tears are difficult to manage because of the structural and mechanical inhomogeneity of the supraspinatus tendon. Previously, we showed that with the arm at the side, the supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendons mechanically interact such that conditions that increase supras

## Abstract Tendon exhibits nonlinear stressβstrain behavior that may be partly due to movement of collagen fibers through the extracellular matrix. While a few techniques have been developed to evaluate the fiber architecture of other soft tissues, the organizational behavior of tendon under load
## BACKGROUND. A variety of hormones have demonstrated effects on prostatic tissue growth dynamics. Our goal was to define the effect of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and prolactin (PRL) on prostate cellular proliferation. METHODS. Thirty benign human prostatic hyperpla
## Abstract Some properties of the enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) from the foetal lung fibroblast strain MRCβ5 have been investigated throughout the in vitro lifespan of this cell strain. No significant ageβrelated alterations in specific activity or thermostability of PGI could be detected
Cultured human bronchial epithelial cells constitutively produce granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The synthesis and release of GM-CSF is upregulated in bronchial epithelium of patients with symptomatic asthma and this may contribute to the local activation of inflammatory c
