Pseudoxanthoma elasticum and reflectance confocal microscopy: report of two affected young sisters

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2015
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare inherited multisystem disorder that mainly affects skin, eyes and cardiovascular system. The associated clinical signs are due to progressive calcification of elastic fibres and blood vessels, despite normal ...

Error Analysis for Measurement of Tissue Elastic Constant and its Practical Application [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
1981-11This paper examined the availability of a method for calculating the "mean elastic constant" of tissue and its practical applicability. The error analysis for the elastic constant of tissue was obtained by theoretical and experimental methods. Its

The Elastic Constant of Tissue in the Body Estimated from Computerized Tomography and Ultrasonography : Theoretical Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
1981-11This paper describes a method for calculating the elastic constant of tissue. Length measurements obtained from Ultrasonograms (US) are different from the results obtained from Computerized Tomograms (CT) when the velocity of sound is compared to ...

Successful treatment of a multifocal comminuted open fracture of humerus with severe soft tissue defect: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Choosing the appropriate treatment approach for a multifocal comminuted open fracture of humerus with severe soft tissue defect is a challenging issue, which could be interesting for every orthopedic surgeon especially for those working in the

Contrast-enhanced tissue processing of fibrillin-rich elastic fibres for 3D visualization by volume scanning electron microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Elastic fibres constitute an important component of the extracellular matrix and currently are the subject of intensive study in order to elucidate their assembly, function and involvement in cell–matrix interactions and disease.

Elasticity of tissues involved in accommodation [PDF]

open access: yesVision Research, 1991
Uniaxial loading of human lens, zonules, ciliary muscle, and choroid shows a nonlinear relationship between stress and deformation of the specimen, and hysteresis on unloading. Spring constants, at 10% elongation, have been calculated for all specimens and for several combinations. Except for zonules they are significantly correlated with age.

Biomechanical assessment of extracellular matrix in native and tissue engineered cartilage across lenght scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Musculoskeletal diseases (MSD) and related disorders account for the largest fraction of temporary and permanent disabilities, and are often considered to be an inevitable consequence of aging.

In vitro elastic cartilage reconstruction using human auricular perichondrial chondroprogenitor cell–derived micro 3D spheroids

open access: yesJournal of Tissue Engineering, 2022
Morphologically stable scaffold-free elastic cartilage tissue is crucial for treating external ear abnormalities. However, establishing adequate mechanical strength is challenging, owing to the difficulty of achieving chondrogenic differentiation in ...

Signaling pathways in elastic tissues

open access: yesCellular Signalling, 2019
For many years elastin was considered as the matrix component structurally required to provide tissue elasticity. However, the expanded knowledge on the regulation of connective tissue homeostasis has revealed that elastic fibers also represent a source of elastokines and are the target of a number of signaling pathways mainly involving the TGF-β/BMP ...
