Crystal size and organization in bone.

abstract：:Recently our laboratory has reported, in a lacerated flexor tendon model, that the "early turnover" phase of the repair process extends for a longer period of time in vivo than previously documented. The extensive turnover of the collagenous matrix was consistent with the presence of collagenolytic activity in repairi...
