Cell Type Overview

Tendon cells are the resident cells of tendons, primarily tenocytes. Tenocytes are specialized fibroblasts that are elongated and aligned with the collagen fibers. They synthesize, maintain, and remodel the dense, regularly arranged collagenous extracellular matrix that gives tendons their high tensile strength, allowing them to transmit forces from muscle to bone.
