While mammals have a limited capacity to repair bone fractures, zebrafish can completely regenerate amputated bony fin rays. Fin regeneration in teleosts has been studied after partial amputation of the caudal fin, which is not ideal to model human bone fractures because it involves substantial tissue removal, rather than local tissue injury. In this work, we have established a bone crush injur...

Decalcification is routinely performed for histological studies of bone-containing tissue. Although DNA in situ hybridization (ISH) and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) have been successfully employed on archival material, little has been reported on the use of these techniques on archival decalcified bony material. In this study we compared the effects of two commonly used decalcifiers,...

INTRODUCTION Graves' ophthalmopathy is characterized by an increase in the volume of orbital soft tissue contents and an associated increase in intraorbital pressure. Surgical expansion of bony orbital volume is therefore an effective method of treating moderate to severe exophthalmos. Numerous correlations between specific decompression procedures and reduction of proptosis have been made. The...

The lantern shark genus Etmopterus contains approximately 40 species of deep-sea bioluminescent cartilaginous fishes. They emit blue light mainly from the ventral body surface. biological functions this bioluminescence have been discussed based on luminescence patterns, but mechanism remains uncertain. In study, we detected both coelenterazine and coelenterazine-dependent luciferase activity in...

INTRODUCTION: The presence of either a Hill-Sachs or a bony Bankart lesion has been indicated as a possible cause of subluxation and anterior shoulder dislocation. Anterior dislocation accounts for approximately 98% of all shoulder dislocations. 2 Common treatments include soft tissue repair, bone grafting, and total shoulder replacement. It has been reported that there is a possibility of recu...

Orthognathic surgery (OGS) is a powerful procedure used to correct several types of facial deformity. By altering the position of maxillary, mandibular, and chin segments after osteotomy, the facial bony structure and soft-tissue envelope can be harmonized, leading to substantial esthetic and functional improvement of facial appearance and dentoalveolar complex. Because of the meticulous nature...

Stable posture and body movement in humans is dictated by the precise functioning of the ampulla organs in the semi-circular canals. Statistical analysis of the interrelationship between bony and membranous compartments within the semi-circular canals is dependent on the visualization of soft tissue structures. Thirty-one human inner ears were prepared, post-fixed with osmium tetroxide and deca...

The growth plate is responsible for longitudinal growth of children's long bones. However, being a cartilaginous tissue, the growth plate has a limited ability for regeneration and thus injured growth plate is often repaired by bony tissue resulting in bone growth defects of the involved limb. Understanding the pathophysiology of growth plate bony repair and developing preventative treatments r...
