Macrophage sub-populations and the lipoxin A4 receptor implicate active inflammation during equine tendon repair
Macrophages (Mφ) orchestrate inflammatory and reparatory processes in injured connective tissues but their role during different phases of tendon healing is not known. We investigated the contribution of different Mφ subsets in an equine model of naturally occurring tendon injury. Post mortem tissue...
