Abstract
The present invention relates to providing artificial tendon or ligament tissue having sufficient strength. More specifically, artificial tendon or ligament tissue having sufficient strength is provided by embedding collagen-secreting cells in a gel having strength capable of resisting a tensile load and by culturing the cells while applying a tensile load to the gel to produce artificial tendon or ligament tissue. Cells that steadily express the Mkx gene can be used as the collagen-secreting cells. A fibrin gel containing aprotinin can be used as the gel.
