In this study, the authors established a puncture-induced tendon injury model to investigate the molecular patterns and cellular subpopulations involved in early tendon injury across multiple time points. Single-cell RNA sequencing further revealed eight myeloid cell types and seven mesenchymal cell types participating in the tendon repair process.
Countstar Connection
The researchers measured cell number and viability in the study's cell samples with Countstar (model not specified) before single-cell analysis in the 2025 iScience study.
