Cartilage Calcification
Nineteenth century histologist Ranvier discovered the point of ossification and the calcification of cartilage as observed in embryos (Ranvier, 1875). By skillfully using simple methods such as hand-cutting with a razor, or with a lead-screw microtome of his own invention (still marketed as the Ranvier hand microtome), and chromic acid and carmine to stain, he observed the deposition of calcare...
متن کاملCalcification in articular cartilage.
A man of fifty-seven was admitted to Queen Mary’s Hospital, Roehampton, in December I 957 complaining of general listlessness, effort dyspnoea and angina of effort of some fourteen months’ duration. Previously he had had attacks of left-sided renal colic, which started in 1928 and which necessitated a left nephro-lithotomy in 1944 and a left nephrectomy in 1948. Thereafter he remained moderatel...

متن کاملVesicles Associated with Calcification in the Matrix of Epiphyseal Cartilage
Vesicles have been identified within the cartilage matrix of the upper tibial epiphyseal plate of normal mice. They were seen at all levels within the plate and usually did not appear to be in contact with cartilage cells. Vesicles were concentrated within the matrix of the longitudinal septa from the proliferative zone downward. They varied considerably in size ( approximately 300 A to approxi...
متن کاملCalcification of Costal Cartilage in the Adult Rib Cage
Costal cartilage bridges the sternum and the ribs and plays a key role in the biomechanics of the chest. Costal cartilage is known to calcify in local regions with age, which can substantially stiffen its overall response to loading. However, the rate of accumulation of the calcified volume is not well quantified. Current computational models of the thorax assign a homogeneous sof...
