## Abstract The glycosaminoglycan of decorin, dermatan sulfate (DS), has been suggested to contribute to the mechanical properties of soft connective tissues such as ligaments and tendons. This study investigated the mechanical function of DS in human medial collateral ligaments (MCL) using nondest
## Abstract The integrins are a family of adhesionβmediating cell surface receptors that play critical roles in cellβextracellular matrix interactions and have been shown to be important in the healing response in several tissues. We have studied integrin expression in normal human and rabbit anter
