## Abstract Supraspinatus tendon overuse injuries lead to significant pain and disability in athletes and workers. Despite the prevalence and high social cost of these injuries, the early pathological events are not well known. We analyzed the potential relation between glycosaminoglycan (GAG) comp

Abstract
The presence of mechanoreceptors in tendon after overuse activities can be a further step to learn about tendinopathy and overuse. Studies of tendons mechanoreceptors in rats are rare. We studied 12 isogenic spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR), which underwent an overuse protocol consisting of an hour per daily session of treadmill running at a speed of 17βm/min, 5 times/week for 4 months. Supraspinatus tendons were evaluated with immunohistochemistry using S100 protein antibodies and histological protocol. Supraspinatus tendons at the end of 4 months of overuse protocol had a high number of media mechanoreceptors (4.3) than controls (0.6). The overexpression of S100 protein antibody in overuse activities maybe could represent a adaptative effort to tendon before the tear.

## Abstract The purpose of this study was to design an animal model that induces histological changes in Achilles tendons consistent with those cited in the literature for human Achilles tendon disease. SpragueβDawley rats were subjected to 10Β° uphill treadmill running on a customβdesigned rodent t
Three groups of rats were given avoidance training followed by extinction. One group received one acquisition session immediately followed by extinction. A second group received two acquisition sessions while in the non-drug state, followed by extinction. A third group received two acquisition sessi
