Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 714-736, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Additive‐Manufactured, Multifunctional Bioreactor Technology for Dynamic Culture of 3D Bioprinted Tissue Models

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 17, 3 September 2026.
We introduce an additively manufactured bioreactor with a perfusion flow system and integrated temperature and pH sensors for skeletal muscle tissue biofabrication. The bioreactor's performance was evaluated by assessing the viability, spreading of the myoblast cells in a printed scaffold, and contraction of the isolated murine musculi interossei ...

Neuron‐Derived MIF Engages VCAM1 to Fuel a Self‐Amplifying CXCL8 Loop That Drives Perineural Invasion and Metastasis in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.
Neuron‐derived MIF binds VCAM1 on gastric cancer cells and activates ERK/STAT3 signaling, leading to CXCL8 transcription and secretion. Tumor‐derived CXCL8 subsequently stimulates neuronal CXCR2 to enhance MIF production, establishing a self‐amplifying MIF–VCAM1–CXCL8 positive‐feedback loop that promotes perineural invasion, tumor progression, and ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2368-2394, September 2026.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2519-2533, September 2026.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2346-2367, September 2026.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Foot Muscle Size and Balance in Stroke: Evidence of Structural‐Functional Dissociation

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study investigated foot muscle and plantar fascia size measurements and their relationship with static balance dysfunction in stroke patients. Methods This cross‐sectional study included 90 stroke patients (3–12 months post‐stroke) and 95 healthy controls.

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 64, Issue 3, Page 685-698, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Anatomy of the Lisfranc joint complex: An illustrated review with surgical approach

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page 3178-3185, September 2026.
Abstract This manuscript presents a detailed anatomical review of the Lisfranc joint complex, which includes the tarsometatarsal joints, the intertarsal joints and the proximal intermetatarsal joints. From the bony anatomy to the ligamentous structures reaching the base of the second metatarsal and the surgical anatomy relevant to fix the joint complex,

Navicular and fifth metatarsal base stress fractures: An illustrated anatomical review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page 3135-3149, September 2026.
Abstract The navicular bone and the proximal fifth metatarsal (M5) play a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity and biomechanical stability of the foot's medial and lateral columns, respectively. Both bones' unique anatomical configuration, intricate mechanical environment and limited vascular supply make specific locations particularly ...
