The Pathogenesis of Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament
Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is a multi-factorial disease involving an ectopic bone formation of spinal ligaments. It affects 0.8-3.0% aging Asian and 0.1-1.7% aging European Caucasian. The ossified ligament compresses nerve

Two tissue-resident progenitor lineages drive distinct phenotypes of heterotopic ossification
Tissue-specific manifestations of the congenital bone-forming syndrome FOP are mediated by multiple tissue-resident stem cell populations. Boning up on stem cells Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare genetic disorder of uncontrolled bone ...

Loss of ninein interferes with osteoclast formation and causes premature ossification
Ninein is a centrosome protein that has been implicated in microtubule anchorage and centrosome cohesion. Mutations in the human NINEIN gene have been linked to Seckel syndrome and to a rare form of skeletal dysplasia.

Variation in parrot jaw musculature
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,
