Morphological study of the supratrochlear foramen in Canis lupus ssp.

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is a common anatomical feature in the humeri of dogs and wolves. This study shows that the STF exhibits a consistent shape and position in dogs and wolves, suggesting a common morphological pattern; however, it was less frequent in smaller dog humeri, and its size correlated with humeral dimensions, suggesting that ...

Functional compartmentalization of the anconeus: A three‐dimensional study of muscle morphology and innervation patterns

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this anatomic study of anconeus utilizing dissection, digitization and 3D modeling, anconeus was found to have three distinct parts: proximal, distal, and deep. Each part had unique morphology, architecture and innervation, indicating different roles in forearm pronation, elbow extension, and joint stabilization.

The temporal response of bone to unloading [PDF]

open access: yes
Rats were suspended by their tails with the forelimbs bearing the weight load to simulate the weightlessness of space flight. Growth in bone mass ceased by 1 week in the hindlimbs and lumbar vertebrae in growing rats, while growth in the forelimbs and ...

Scratching beneath the surface: Quantification of muscle architecture and myosin heavy chain content in the forelimbs of black‐tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys, Rodentia)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

Alterations in gut transport of minerals and in binding proteins during simulated weightlessness [PDF]

open access: yes
The structural components of the skeleton develop and are maintained in a 1 g environment, shaped by the mechanical load to which they are constantly exposed.
