Funded Activity Summary

Tendinopathy has a significant patient morbidity, which is a clear burden to the Australian economy. A better fundamental grasp of tendon tissue biology is urgently required. This study will enable us to establish the role of matricellular protein SPARC in tendon function, thus enhance the understanding of tendon biology and enable translation of the bench work to potential clinical applications.
