Expression of ADAMTS-5 in deformed human temporomandibular joint discs.
OBJECTIVE To study the expression of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS-5) in tissue samples of deformed human temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discs and cells obtained from the discs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eleven adult human TMJ discs (nine diseased discs and two normal discs) were used in this study. The nine diseased discs were obtained from nine patients...
متن کاملCharacterizing the compression-dependent viscoelastic properties of human hepatic pathologies using dynamic compression testing.
Recent advances in elastography have provided several imaging modalities capable of quantifying the elasticity of tissue, an intrinsic tissue property. This information is useful for determining tumour margins and may also be useful for diagnosing specific tumour types. In this study, we used dynamic compression testing to quantify the viscoelastic properties of 16 human hepatic primary and sec...
متن کاملHuman temporomandibular joint morphogenesis.
Temporomandibular joint morphogenesis was studied. Ranging in age of fetuses examined was from 6 to14 weeks' gestation. Our results showed the condyle so first element that appear between 6 degrees and 8 degrees week (condylar blastema). After a week appear temporal elements. Disk appear at the same time of glenoid blastema and it reaches an advanced differentation before of the condyle and tem...
متن کاملNeocartilage integration in temporomandibular joint discs: physical and enzymatic methods.
Integration of engineered musculoskeletal tissues with adjacent native tissues presents a significant challenge to the field. Specifically, the avascularity and low cellularity of cartilage elicit the need for additional efforts in improving integration of neocartilage within native cartilage. Self-assembled neocartilage holds significant potential in replacing degenerated cartilage, though its...
متن کاملStability of a viscoelastic thread immersed in a confined region∗
In this paper, we consider an infinitely long viscoelastic thread in a tube filled with a Newtonian fluid. We apply Jeffreys model as the rheological relation for the thread. The thread moves due to a constant pressure gradient, but so slowly that the quasi-static creeping flow approximation is applicable. We investigate the effect of the ratio of viscosities, fluid elasticity, confinement and ...
