Abstract:Background: Lubricin is well known to facilitate the movement of tendon fascicles gliding and recoil against the surrounding tissues in tendons. However, little is known about its response under various mechanical loading conditions. This study was aimed to understand the effect of treadmill running with different exercise intensities on the alternations of lubricin content in rat Achilles tendon.Methods: In this study, eighteen rats were randomly divided into three groups, strenuous treadmill running (STR), m… Show more
