Rib fractures and death from deletion of osteoblast βcatenin in adult mice is rescued by corticosteroids. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Ribs are primarily made of cortical bone and are necessary for chest expansion and ventilation. Rib fractures represent the most common type of non-traumatic fractures in the elderly yet few studies have focused on the biology of rib fragility.

Orientation of the intercostal muscle fibers in the human rib cage [PDF]

Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2015
Great improvement was achieved to protect vehicle occupants in case of a motor vehicle crashes thanks to the development of restraint systems such as seat belts and airbags . These systems increase the mechanical coupling between the human body and the vehicle to minimize the risk of severe injuries to the thorax and the head during a crash.

LncRNA Foxo6os as a Novel “ Scaffold” Mediates MYBPC3 in Combating Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview showing that forkhead box O6, opposite strand (Foxo6os) acts as a “scaffold”, directly binding myosin‐binding protein‐C (MYBPC3) and recruiting protein kinase C (PKC‐α) to mediate site‐specific phosphorylation of MYBPC3. This post‐translational modification supports cardiac contraction by regulating L‐type Ca2+ channels, especially ...
