Abstract

Collagen rich connective tissues fulfill a variety of important functions throughout the human body, most of which having to resist mechanical challenges. This review aims to compare structural and functional aspects of tendons and sclera, two tissues with distinct location and function, but with striking similarities regarding their cellular content, their extracellular matrix and their low degree of vascularization. The description of these similarities meant to provide potential novel insight for both the fields of orthopedic research and ophthalmology. (c) 2021 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
