The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions
The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions isolated from adult bovine and calf lenses were studied using combined electron microscopy, immunolocalization with monoclonal and polyclonal anti-MIP and anti-MP70 (two putative gap junction-forming proteins), and freeze-fracture and label-fracture methods. The major intrinsic protein of lens plasma membranes (MIP) was...
متن کاملAnatomical study: comparing the human, sheep and pig knee meniscus
BACKGROUND Animal models are commonly used in investigating new treatment options for knee joint injuries including injuries to the meniscus. The reliability and applicability of these models to replicate findings in humans depends on determining the most suitable animal proxy. Therefore, this study was designed to compare the wet weight, volume and dimensions of the human meniscus with two com...
متن کاملLoop-Post Construct, A Novel Technique for Medial Meniscus Root Repair
Surgical reattachment of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) with transtibial sutures can delay the presenceof medial knee joint compartment osteoarthritis. Most suture configurations are placed five mm away from the tornmargin in the meniscal substance which is already degenerated and may decrease the pull out strengths of repairconstruct. The number of meniscus penet...
متن کاملDouble-layered lateral meniscus. A rare anatomical aberration.
We report a case of double-layered lateral meniscus, where an accessory proximal hemimeniscus was overlying the body and posterior horn of the lateral meniscus. It lay 1-2 mm proximal and parallel to the normal lateral meniscus with its periphery attached to the capsule and was significantly thinner and more mobile than its underlying counterpart. The accessory hemimeniscus was resected arthros...
متن کاملBiochemical Stimulus-Based Strategies for Meniscus Tissue Engineering and Regeneration
Meniscus injuries are very common and still pose a challenge for the orthopedic surgeon. Meniscus injuries in the inner two-thirds of the meniscus remain incurable. Tissue-engineered meniscus strategies seem to offer a new approach for treating meniscus injuries with a combination of seed cells, scaffolds, and biochemical or biomechanical stimulation. Cell- or scaffold-based strategies play a p...
