Developing cartilage serves as a template for long-bone development during endochondralossification.
2
The degradation of proteoglycans has been considered an essential step in the process of endochondralossification.
3
Bone formation by endochondralossification is considered a key pathophysiological process in the formation of osteophytes.
4
Histological observations and gene expression analysis showed stronger endochondralossification elicited by strontium compared to rhBMP2.
5
During endochondralossification, the cartilage is surrounded by a layer of cells that constitute the perichondrium.
6
These cartilage cells progressively differentiate and the tissue undergoes endochondralossification, recapitulating the development of endochondral bone.
7
Recently, gene deletion revealed a predominant role of NPR-B in endochondralossification and development of female reproductive organs.
8
TAP63a may promote endochondralossification through interaction with genes relevant to matrix mineralization and chondrocyte maturation or apoptosis.
9
Chondrocytes of the growth plate undergo apoptosis during the process of endochondralossification, as well as during the progression of osteoarthritis.
10
Mutant mice had decreased postnatal viability and growth, with a defect in endochondralossification at epiphyseal plates similar to human hypochondroplasia.
11
During endochondralossification, apoptosis of chondrocytes occurs concurrently with new bone formation and the resorption and replacement of mineralized cartilage with woven bone.
12
Although the coupling of cartilage and bone development with angiogenesis is an important regulatory step for endochondralossification, the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood.
13
Introduction: During endochondralossification, both the production of a cartilage template and the subsequent vascularisation of that template are essential precursors to bone tissue formation.
14
Herein, we describe a developmentally inspired approach to bone tissue engineering, which focuses on leveraging biomaterials as platforms for recapitulating the process of endochondralossification.
15
During endochondralossification, a small amount of metachromatic staining cartilage appeared at the fracture site, but there was no provisional calcification zone in the cartilage.
