Restoring tendon microenvironment in tendinopathy: Macrophage modulation and tendon regeneration with injectable tendon hydrogel and tendon-derived stem cells exosomes by Danmei Li, Shuai Li, Shukun He, Hongpu He, Guangxun Yuan, Binbin Ma, Yijun Zhang, Chengjie Yuan, Zhiqin Liu, Zhenhan Deng, Jian Xu

“…Furthermore, utilizing tdECM as a carrier for the sustained release of tendon-derived stem cells exosomes (TDSCs-Exos), our findings from both in vitro and in vivo studies indicate that the tdECM hydrogel, in conjunction with exosomes, demonstrated a pronounced synergistic enhancement in modulating inflammation, promoting M2 macrophage polarization, and facilitating tendon regeneration and repair efficacy. …”
