Differences in predominant collagen fiber orientation between dorsal and plantar trabecular bone tracts of adult mule deer calcanei suggest strain‐mode‐specific adaptation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Polarized microscopic images of the outer bone cortex (a and b) and deeper trabecular bone (c and d) of the deer calcaneus in thin cross‐sections. The brighter gray levels reflect more oblique‐to‐transverse collagen fibers in the compression/dorsal bone (a, c) and the darker gray levels reflect more longitudinal collagen in the tension/plantar bone (b,

Characterization of the extracellular matrix from human and dog umbilical cords

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix is important for maintaining tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis; it can also be used as a biomaterial for the production of biological scaffolds. Particularly, the umbilical cord has shown potential in the production of scaffolds for small‐diameter vessels.

Postcranial anatomy and osteohistology of an early prozostrodont cynodont from the Upper Triassic of Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Prozostrodon brasiliensis, a probainognathian cynodont of the clade Prozostrodontia, is recognized as a key taxon for understanding the origin of Mammaliaformes and mammals. Despite detailed investigations of its cranial anatomy, the postcranial skeleton has received comparatively less attention.

Osteohistological evidence for terrestrial adaptation and an extended growth period in mekosuchine crocodylians and its potential role in their extinction

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Australasian crocodylian fossil record is dominated by the extinct endemic clade Mekosuchinae, with known members spanning the Eocene‐to‐Holocene. This diverse clade exhibited high morphological disparity, from early members superficially similar to Crocodylus, to more terrestrial forms later in the clade's evolutionary history.

Ocular morphology and morphometry of the great egret (Ardea alba): A comprehensive anatomical description

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is widely distributed, yet knowledge of its ocular morphology remains limited. This study described the morphometry and morphology of the eyeball and its accessory glands in six specimens using radiography, morphometry, light and scanning electron microscopy, and 3D scanning.

Tailoring Liquid Crystalline Self‐Assembly and Photophysical Properties of Unsymmetrical Fluorenones via Polar Terminal Groups

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Novel liquid crystalline fluorenones bearing various head groups were synthesized and characterized. By alteration of the head group, N, SmC, or SmA phases were obtained, and emission properties could be tuned depending on solvent or temperature. ABSTRACT In this work, a series of novel unsymmetrical fluorenone derivatives bearing various head groups ...

Bolapolyphiles With Bulky Carbosilane‐Based Lateral Groups—Reticular Design of Liquid Crystalline Pentagonal Honeycombs

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
T‐shaped bolapolyphiles with highly branched carbosilane‐based side‐groups self‐assemble into liquid crystalline honeycombs composed of type‐2 pentagonal prismatic cells and p2gg plane group symmetry. ABSTRACT Periodic pentagon tessellations are rarely observed in self‐assembled molecular systems.

Chiral Dipicolinamide‐Based Push–Pull π‐Conjugated Systems as Nonreciprocal Circularly Polarized Luminescence Emitters

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This work presents the synthesis and characterization of chiral dipicolinamide push–pull fluorophores. While possessing similar photophysical properties in solution, their solvent‐annealed thin films exhibit unexpected, nonreciprocal chiroptical activity in both absorption and emission, including a complete inversion of the chiroptical profile upon ...

Effects of postmortem interval on myelin integrity in rhesus macaque brain tissue [PDF]

Brain Pathol
In rhesus macaque brain, progressive myelin degradation over 72 h postmortem—with increasing numbers of myelin defects—altered myelin's optical properties, increasing scattering coefficient and decreasing relative retardance, as measured by quantitative birefringence microscopy and polarization‐sensitive optical coherence tomography.

Different from bone: Tooth formation and enameloid mineralization are not affected by reduced dietary phosphorus intake

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vertebrates rely on phosphorus intake for skeletal mineralization. In humans, hypomineralized teeth associated with rickets, hypophosphatemia, hypophosphatasia, or idiopathic molar‐incisor‐hypomineralization pose significant problems.
