“We have made a highly novel discovery that parathyroid hormone administered to tendons induces tendon cartilage chondrocyte differentiation without ossification,” said Kazuya ...

For example, a group of diseases called the chondrodystrophies are typically characterized by changes and abnormalities in the growth and subsequent ossification of cartilage. Articular cartilage ...

Cessation of the anti-VEGF treatment was followed by capillary invasion, restoration of bone growth, resorption of the hypertrophic cartilage ... and endochondral ossification, until now it ...

The development and growth of bone is referred to as osteogenesis or ossification. Some skeletal bone begins to form during the first few weeks after conception and after eight weeks, cartilage ...

Cartilage is dense connective tissue. This cartilage turns into hard bone through a process called ossification. Ossification is the process the body goes through when it turns a tissue into bone.

In endochondral ossification, mesenchymal progenitor cells instead differentiate into chondrocytes, initially forming a cartilage intermediate that is replaced as bone is regenerated. In this ...

During the process of endochondral ossification in growth plate cartilage, hypertrophic genes are marked by both H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 to enable rapid activation when needed. In articular cartilage ...
