Heterotopic ossification (HO) is defined as the generation of pathological ectopic bony structures in soft tissues, but the molecular mechanisms of tendon HO are not fully revealed. Hedgehog (Hh) signalling is reportedly critical in hereditary HO. Our study focuses on the role of Hh signalling in th...
