THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ULNAR NUTRIENT FORAMEN: A MORPHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS.
Background: The arteries that provide nutrients to the bone enter the bone of the ulna through the nutrient foramina. During bone grafting, it is necessary to understand the position and number of nutrient foramina to ensure that the bone grafts have a ...

Phospho1 deficiency transiently modifies bone architecture yet produces consistent modification in osteocyte differentiation and vascular porosity with ageing [PDF]
PHOSPHO1 is one of principal proteins involved in initiating bone matrix mineralisation. Recent studies have found that Phospho1 KO mice (Phospho1-R74X) display multiple skeletal abnormalities with spontaneous fractures, bowed long bones, osteomalacia ...
