Functional anatomy, jaw mechanisms, and feeding behavior of Dunkleosteus terrelli (Placodermi, Arthrodira)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

Annexin A5 Involvement in Bone Overgrowth at the Enthesis [PDF]

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2018
ABSTRACT   Little is known about the molecular mechanisms of enthesis formation in mature animals. Here, we report that annexin A5 (Anxa5) plays a critical role in the regulation of bone ridge outgrowth at the entheses.

Echotexture Analysis of L4 Supraspinous Enthesis in Ankylosing Spondylitis

Journal of Medical Ultrasound, 2021
Background: Enthesopathy is a main characteristic of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). However, ultrasonographic features of supraspinous enthesis in AS have not yet been reported. Methods: Forty-seven AS patients and 22 healthy individuals were enrolled and completed the study.

Editorial Commentary: Too Good to Be True? Preclinical Promise With Healthy Skepticism Toward Biophysical Stimulation for Rotator Cuff Healing

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Tendon–bone healing remains a central biologic challenge in rotator cuff repair, driving interest in noninvasive strategies to augment the healing environment. This commentary examines a recent preclinical study evaluating combined low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound and mild hyperthermia, which reports uniformly favorable effects across in vitro ...

A longitudinal study of radiodensity and radiographic appearance of the proximal sesamoid bones in Thoroughbred racehorses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background There are limited data on long‐term follow‐up of radiographic changes of the proximal sesamoid bones (PSBs) in Thoroughbred racehorses. The effect of training and racing on radiodensity of the PSBs in live Thoroughbreds has not been described.

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

Comparison of cone beam CT and low‐field MRI for diagnosing equine foot and pastern lesions

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page e332-e343, June 2026.
Summary Background While standing magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) of the foot has been extensively studied, descriptions of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) abnormalities in this region are sparse. Objective This study compares CBCT and sMRI for diagnosing lesions in the equine foot and pastern, aiming to assess the complementarity of these ...

Transcriptome profiling of tendon fibroblasts at the onset of embryonic muscle contraction reveals novel force-responsive genes

eLife
Mechanical forces play a critical role in tendon development and function, influencing cell behavior through mechanotransduction signaling pathways and subsequent extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling.

A comparative morphological study of the ligamentum lamina nuchae and ligamenta interspinalia reveals enthesis patterns at the sites of attachment from the second to seventh cervical vertebrae in four extant species of Equus

Vertebrate Anatomy, Morphology, Palaeontology, 2020
Morphological variation in the attachment sites of the ligamentum lamina nuchae and ligamenta interspinalia to the 2nd to 7th cervical vertebrae is described in four species of Equus, and enthesis patterns in relation to these attachment sites are ...
