Proliferating Cells in Knee Epiphyses of Lizards Allow for Somatic Growth and Regeneration after Damage

open access: yesJournal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2017
After bone damage, fracture or amputation, lizards regenerate a variable mass of cartilaginous and fibro-cartilaginous tissues, depending from the anatomical site and intensity of inflammation. Aside tail and vertebrae, also long bones and knee epiphyses

Sexual dimorphism and allometric patterns in hawkmoth epiphyses (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sexual dimorphism in insects often extends beyond size differences, encompassing a range of morphological traits. These sex differences in wing size, body mass, antenna shape, and even the epiphyses of lepidopterans have been studied previously.

EPIPHYSES

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Diseases of Children, 1929
To the pediatrician, orthopedic surgeon and roentgenologist, the study of the epiphyses should be one of the most interesting branches of medicine and surgery. Their importance in the correct interpretation of certain conditions found in infancy and during childhood and adolescence should be emphasized.
