EXTra hit for mouse osteochondroma.

O steochondromas are the most common benign bone tumors that can occur either singularly or in hereditary multiple osteochondromas syndrome (MO; previously known as hereditary multiple exostoses). Osteochondromas histologically resemble the growth plate and are located preferentially at the long bones. MO is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in either EXT1 at 8q24 (65%) or EXT2...

Double hit mouse model of Parkinson's disease

Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, whose pathological hallmarks are the loss of dopaminergic cells of Substantia Nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and the brain accumulation of Lewy bodies, abnormal aggregates of α-synuclein. Neurodegeneration in SNpc leads to a prominent dopaminergic deficiency in the basal ganglia, responsible for motor disturbances. Howev...

Fig. 1: Mpeg-4 Coding Scheme

A programmable processor architecture for MPEG-4 video is proposed, that can serve as a coprocessor module in MPEG-4 decoder systems. It consists of a 64-bit dual-issue VLIW macroblock engine, a separate RISC core for bitstream parsing and system processing, and an autonomous I/O processor. A separate DSP is used for MPEG audio support. The architecture is fully programmable and supports parall...

Extra-osseous osteochondroma-like soft tissue mass of the patello-femoral space

BACKGROUND Extraskeletal cartilaginous tumors are uncommon. Osteochondromas usually arise from the metaphyseal region of the growing skeleton. CASE PRESENTATION A 53 year old man presented with a three years history of anterior knee pain and inability to flex his knee more than 90 degrees . Clinical examination and imaging studies revealed a nodular calcific mass in the anterior portion of th...
