Physiology Aging of muscle-tendon units influences common orthopaedic injuries and tendon-to-bone healing WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY Thomas L. Smith PlateFrank JohannesThe findings of this work suggest that normal aging influences passive biomechanical properties, muscle histologic structure, and decreases ...
Where a muscle ends and attaches to a bone or tendon?The moveable end of the muscle that attaches to the bone being pulled is called the muscle's insertion, and the end of the muscle attached to a fixed (stabilized) bone is called the origin. During forearm flexion—bending the elbow—...
Tendons are bands of dense, fibrous connective tissue interposed between muscles and bones. They transmit the forces created in the muscles to the bone, makingjointmotionpossible. Some tendons may also connect two muscle bellies (e.g., digastrics, omohyoid). The gross tendon structure varies cons...

The dissection findings from all 3 types strongly imply a general hierarchy of muscle tendon attachments. Tendons appear to attach preferentially to bone. If the bone they would normally attach to is absent, they will attach to the next closest bone. If no such bone is available, they will ...

Tendons, such as the Achilles, connect muscle to bone, and are loaded repeatedly during movement. When exposed to particularly high loads, this can cause injury in some individuals. The risk of injury increases with age, but scientists have never fully understood why. ...

A tendon or sinew is a tough high-tensile-strength band of dense fibrous connective tissue that connects muscle to bone and is capable of withstanding tension and transmit the mechanical forces of muscle contraction to the skeletal system. Tendons are similar to ligaments; both are made of collag...
