Effect of Elastin Digestion on the Quasi-static Tensile Response of Medial Collateral Ligament

Elastin is a structural protein that provides resilience to biological tissues. We examined the contributions of elastin to the quasi-static tensile response of porcine medial collateral ligament through targeted disruption of the elastin network with pancreatic elastase. Elastase concentration and...
