Bones are divided into two main types: the flat bones of the axial skeleton (skull, scapula, clavicle, vertebra, jaw, and pelvis) and the tubu- lar bones of the appendicular skeleton (9). Both types consist of cortical (or compact) bone and cancellous (or spongy) bone. In a typical long bone such as the femur, the diaphysis, or shaft, is composed of cortical bone surrounding a voluminous marrow, or medul- lary, cavity (fig. 1-1). The epiphyses at the ends of long bones consist mostly of cancellous bone and a thin peripheral rim of cortical bone. In an immature skeleton, the epiphyses are separated from the diaphysis by the epiphyseal cartilage plates. The broad part of the long bone between the epiphyseal plate and the tubular diaphysis is termed the metaphysis.

  • The Eye – the Organ of Vision
    THE EYE – THE ORGAN OF VISION The eye is made up of • The EYEBALL (bulbus oculi ) and • various ADNEXA . These adnexa include the ocular muscles, lacrimal apparatus, orbital fasciae, the eyelids and the tunica conjunctiva. Most of these structures are housed in the orbit, where the eyeball is entrenched in generous quantities of fat. When an animal is emaciated the orbital fat is reduced and the eyes sink within the orbits, giving the face a gaunt, suffering appearance. This is of significance in routine clinical examination of animals. The eyes of the domestic mammals protrude more from the surface of the face than do those of primates, human beings included. The position of the eyes in the head is related to the animal’s environment, habits and method of feeding. Generally, predatory species like the dog and cats have their eyes well set forward thus providing a wide field of binocular vision that allows for concentration on near objects and for perception of depth, whereas those that are the hunted (herbivores, horse, ruminants, rabbits) carry their eyes more laterally. Both eyes hardly overlap, thus these animals are constantly aware of their environment, but have little capacity for binocular vision. Thus it is advised to approach the horse for example for the side to reduce apprehension. The eye is almost entirely enclosed within the cone-shaped cavity (orbit) on the lateral surface of the skull that is delimited externally by a bony margin. The bony ring is completed by the orbital ligament in the pigs and carnivores. THE EYEBALL (BULBUS OCULI ) The eyeball is nearly spherical in outline, except at the anterior where the cornea (the transparent part of the eyeball) bulges.

Received: 29 October 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Barrier function is a vital homeostatic mechanism employed by epithelial and endothelial tissue. Diseases across a wide range of tissue types involve dynamic changes in transcellular junctional complexes and the actin cytoskeleton in the regulation of substance exchange across tissue compartments. In this review, we focus on the contribution of the gap junction protein, Cx43, to the biophysical and biochemical regulation of barrier function. First, we introduce the structure and canonical channel-dependent functions of Cx43. Second, we define barrier function and examine the key molecular structures fundamental to its regulation. Third, we survey the literature on the channel-dependent roles of connexins in barrier function, with an emphasis on the role of Cx43 and the actin cytoskeleton. Lastly, we discuss findings on the channel-independent roles of Cx43 in its associations with the actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesion structures highlighted by PI3K signaling, in the potential modulation of cellular barriers.

  • Bone Cartilage Dense Fibrous CT (Tendons & Nonelastic Ligaments) Dense Elastic CT (Elastic Ligaments)
    Chapter 6 Content Review Questions 1-8 1. The skeletal system consists of what connective tissues? Bone Cartilage Dense fibrous CT (tendons & nonelastic ligaments) Dense elastic CT (elastic ligaments) List the functions of these tissues. Bone: supports the body, protects internal organs, provides levers on which muscles act, store minerals, and produce blood cells. Cartilage provides a model for bone formation and growth, provides a smooth cushion between adjacent bones, and provides firm, flexible support. Tendons attach muscles to bones and ligaments attach bone to bone. 2. Name the major types of fibers and molecules found in the extracellular matrix of the skeletal system. Collagen Proteoglycans Hydroxyapatite Water Minerals How do they contribute to the functions of tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bones? The collagen fibers of tendons and ligaments make these structures very tough, like ropes or cables. Collagen makes cartilage tough, whereas the water-filled proteoglycans make it smooth and resistant. As a result, cartilage is relatively rigid, but springs back to its original shape if it is bent or slightly compressed, and it is an excellent shock absorber. The extracellular matrix of bone contains collagen and minerals, including calcium and phosphate. Collagen is a tough, ropelike protein, which lends flexible strength to the bone. The mineral component gives the bone compression (weight-bearing) strength. Most of the mineral in the bone is in the form of hydroxyapatite. 3. Define the terms diaphysis, epiphysis, epiphyseal plate, medullary cavity, articular cartilage, periosteum, and endosteum. Diaphysis – the central shaft of a long bone. Epiphysis – the ends of a long bone. Epiphyseal plate – the site of growth in bone length, found between each epiphysis and diaphysis of a long bone and composed of cartilage.

  • Dimensional Reconstruction of Haversian Systems in Human
    Journal of Anatomy J. Anat. (2016) doi: 10.1111/joa.12430 Three-dimensional reconstruction of Haversian systems in human cortical bone using synchrotron radiation-based micro-CT: morphology and quantification of branching and transverse connections across age Isabel S. Maggiano,1,2 Corey M. Maggiano,2,3 John G. Clement,4 C. David L. Thomas,4 Yasmin Carter5 and David M. L. Cooper1 1Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, Canada 2Department of Anthropology, University of West Georgia, Carrollton, GA, USA 3Department of Anthropology, University of Western Ontario, London, ON, Canada 4Melbourne Dental School, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Vic., Australia 5Department of Radiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worchester, MA, USA Abstract This study uses synchrotron radiation-based micro-computed tomography (CT) scans to reconstruct three- dimensional networks of Haversian systems in human cortical bone in order to observe and analyse interconnectivity of Haversian systems and the development of total Haversian networks across different ages. A better knowledge of how Haversian systems interact with each other is essential to improve understanding of remodeling mechanisms and bone maintenance; however, previous methodological approaches (e.g. serial sections) did not reveal enough detail to follow the specific morphology of Haversian branching, for example. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to identify the morphological diversity of branching patterns and transverse connections, and to understand how they change with age. Two types of branching morphologies were identified: lateral branching, resulting in small osteon branches bifurcating off of larger Haversian canals; and dichotomous branching, the formation of two new osteonal branches from one.

  • 1 SURGICAL ANATOMY of EYE the Eyelids and Orbit House and Protect
    Dr. Hussein Hadi Nahi Eye surgery 5th stage SURGICAL ANATOMY OF EYE The eyelids and orbit house and protect the eye. Eyelids are mobile folds of skin that block light and protect the cornea. The upper lid is slightly larger and more mobile than the lower lid. The upper and lower lids join at the medial and lateral commissures, which are stabilized by the medial and lateral palpebral ligaments. The width of the opening between the lids is controlled by opposing groups of muscles; the orbicularis oculi muscle closes the palpebral fissure while the fissure is widened by the levator palpebrae superioris, pars palpebralis of the sphincter colli profundus muscle, and smooth muscles of the periorbita. The upper and lower lacrimal puncta, which drain tears, open onto the bulbar surfaces of the lid margins 2 to 5 mm from the medial commissure. The lacrimal caruncle is located near the medial commissure. It projects fine, small hairs; has sebaceous glands; and may be pigmented. Long hairs known as cilia project from the upper lid margin, while the lower lid is devoid of cilia. There is a tuft of long tactile hairs at the dorsal medial margin of the orbit, which corresponds to man's eyebrows. Glands in the lid margins are similar to glands found elsewhere in skin. Sebaceous glands open into follicles of the cilia on the upper lid. Both upper and lower lids have specially modified sebaceous glands—the tarsal glands (meibomian glands). Duct openings of these glands are found in a shallow furrow immediately caudal to the mucocutaneous junction.
