Flexor tendon wound healing in vitro: Lactate up-regulation of TGF-β expression and functional activity

Flexor tendon wound healing in zone II is complicated by adhesions to the surrounding fibro-osseous sheath. These adhesions can significantly alter tendon gliding and ultimately hand function. Lactate and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) are two important mediators of wound healing that ha...
