“…Several authors have found that pericytes isolated from different tissues can be induced to differentiate into various connective tissue phenotypes [8]. It seems unlikely that the presence of vascular pericytes in tendon tissue, which might be another multipotent cell source in tendon tissue [28], can account for our findings. Not only is tendon a poorly vascularized tissue, but also the tendon-derived fibroblasts remained negative for pericyte marker α-SMA through the first four passages.…”

“…The niche of these cells is not yet fully understood. The finely tuned molecular and cellular composition of this niche appears to be crucial for stem cell differentiation and maintenance (Bi et al, 2007;Katenkamp et al, 1976;Tempfer et al, 2009;Zhang and Wang, 2013;Zhang et al, 2010b). So far, besides oxygen tension and mechanical stimuli, few other niche-determining factors are known including the composition and nano-/micro-structure of the extracellular matrix (ECM) (Bi et al, 2007;Rui et al, 2011b;Tong et al, 2012;Wang et al, 2008;Zhang and Wang, 2013).…”
