Role of galectin-3 in bone cell differentiation, bone pathophysiology and vascular osteogenesis [PDF]
, 2017 Galectin-3 is expressed in various tissues, including the bone, where it is considered a marker of chondrogenic and osteogenic cell lineages. Galectin-3 protein was found to be increased in the differentiated chondrocytes of the metaphyseal plate ...

Heterotopic Ossification: Radiological and Pathological Review
Radiology and Oncology, 2019 Background Heterotopic Ossification (HO) is a common condition referring to ectopic bone formation in soft tissues. It has two major etiologies, acquired (more common) and genetic. The acquired form is closely related to tissue trauma.

Molecular Pathophysiology of Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament (OPLL)
Biomolecules & Therapeutics, 2019 Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) can be defined as an ectopic ossification in the tissues of spinal ligament showing a hyperostotic condition. OPLL is developed mostly in the cervical spine and clinical presentations of OPLL are

A perfusion culture system for assessing bone marrow stromal cell differentiation on PLGA scaffolds for bone repair [PDF]
, 2018 Biomaterials development for bone repair is currently hindered by the lack of physiologically relevant in vitro testing systems. Here we describe the novel use of a bi-directional perfusion bioreactor to support the long term culture of human bone marrow

NF-κB/MAPK activation underlies ACVR1-mediated inflammation in human heterotopic ossification.
JCI Insight, 2018 BACKGROUND Inflammation helps regulate normal growth and tissue repair. Although bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and inflammation are known contributors to abnormal bone formation, how these pathways interact in ossification remains unclear ...

Histological evidence for a supraspinous ligament in sauropod dinosaurs [PDF]
, 2015 Supraspinous ossified rods have been reported in the sacra of some derived sauropod dinosaurs. Although different hypotheses have been proposed to explain the origin ofthis structure, histological evidence has never been provided to support or reject any

Mkx‐Deficient Mice Exhibit Hedgehog Signaling–Dependent Ectopic Ossification in the Achilles Tendons
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2019 Heterotopic ossification is the abnormal formation of mineralized bone in skin, muscle, tendon, or other soft tissues. Tendon ossification often occurs from acute tendon injury or chronic tendon degeneration, for which current treatment relies heavily on

Quantitative geometric analysis of rib, costal cartilage and sternum from childhood to teenagehood [PDF]
, 2013 Better understanding of the effects of growth on children’s bones and cartilage is necessary for clinical and biomechanical purposes. The aim of this study is to define the 3D geometry of children’s rib cages: including sternum, ribs and costal cartilage.
