Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

Mesenchymal stem cells can survive on the extracellular matrix-derived decellularized bovine articular cartilage scaffold [PDF]
Objective (s): The scarcity of articular cartilage defect to repair due to absence of blood vessels and tissue engineering is one of the promising approaches for cartilage regeneration.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related degenerative joint disease mainly characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage. Owing to its native avascular property, intrinsic repair of articular cartilage is very limited.

Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.

Local stimulation of articular cartilage repair by transplantation of encapsulated chondrocytes overexpressing human fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) in vivo [PDF]
Background Defects of articular cartilage are an unsolved problem in orthopaedics. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that gene transfer of human fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) via transplantation of encapsulated genetically modified ...

Abstract Megantereon was a widespread saber‐toothed felid from the Pliocene and Pleistocene of the Old World and North America, but its rarity in the fossil record makes it complicated to restore its life appearance. Lack of complete specimens makes it necessary to combine information from fossils of different individuals to reconstruct their facial ...
