| Research Abstract |
Previously, we established the methodology of mechanical properties and blood circulation of human tendon. In addition, we developed to estimate changes in synthesis of type I collagen in human tendon. Using these techniques, we clarified the time course of changes in mechanical and metabolic properties of human tendon during training and detraining. Furthermore, we investigated the effects of heating, acupuncture, and hyperbaric oxygen therapies on blood circulation of human tendon.
