Neurotrophic extracellular matrix proteins promote neuronal and iPSC astrocyte progenitor cell‐ and nano‐scale process extension for neural repair applications

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 585-601, April 2025.
The extracellular matrix plays a critical role in modulating cell behaviour in the central nervous system influencing neural cell morphology and growth. However, a better understanding of the impact of individual matrix proteins on both neurons and astrocytes is critical for advancing the development of matrix‐based neural repair strategies.

The electrokinetic behavior of calcium oxalate monohydrate in macromolecular solutions [PDF]

open access: yes
Electrophoretic mobilities were measured for calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) in solutions containing macromolecules. Two mucopolysaccharides (sodium heparin and chrondroitin sulfate) and two proteins (positively charged lysozyme and negatively charged ...

Diversity and development of the hemibacula of croaking geckos (Sphaerodactylidae: Aristelliger)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Geckos in the genus Aristelliger exhibit enigmatic mineralized elements in their hemipenes, called hemibacula. We examined hemibacula of every species of Aristelliger using μCT, clearing and staining, and histology. We found hemibacula exhibit lineage‐specific morphology, isometric growth after sexual maturity, and are composed of mineralized ...

Collagen organisation in the fibrous joint capsules in the digits of the human hand

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The function of the finger joints is important for daily life. In this review of the literature, we consider the role of collagen and its organization within the fibrous finger joint capsules of the interphalangeal (IP) joints and investigate the relationships between collagen orientation and joint function. Abstract Normal function of the hand and, in
