- TB-500 research must distinguish between tendinopathy (degenerative, chronic, with failed healing response) and acute rupture (sudden mechanical failure, requiring regenerative repair). In tendinopathy, the excessive MMP activity, neovascularisation, and neurogenic pain are primary targets — TB-500’s anti-MMP, pro-collagen, and anti-inflammatory properties are relevant. In acute rupture, pro-migratory and pro-angiogenic effects promote the proliferative healing phase. Research endpoints differ: tendinopathy models require pain behaviour (von Frey, gait analysis lameness score) alongside histology; rupture models require biomechanical failure load as primary endpoint.
