Biology 152 – Appendicular Skeleton Anatomy Objectives Biology 152 – Appendicular Skeleton Anatomy Objectives We will learn proper bone names, left/right/medial, and the parts of bones in this exercise. Start by learning the names of the bones. As you gain comfort with that, learn the parts visually and by feel. If you can put the bone in a bag and still feel and identify the parts, then you really will remember it for the practical! Remember, if there are paired bones in the body, then their parts are likely paired left/right as well. Medial bones could have paired or medial parts. SCAPULA - right/left - ax head points down and arm goes off to the side; Glen and Cora are dating! Note that posterior has a ridge and the anterior (deeper side) is smooth. acromion lateral border coracoid process glenoid cavity infraspinous fossa medial border spine of scapula subscapular fossa supraspinous fossa HUMERUS - right/left - stick shift with overdrive button for your thumb; My Little CTO!

Chondrocytes are the exclusive cells residing in cartilage and maintain the functionality of cartilage tissue. Series of biocomponents such as different growth factors, cytokines, and transcriptional factors regulate the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation to chondrocytes. The number of chondrocytes and dedifferentiation are the key limitations in subsequent clinical application of the chondrocytes. Different culture methods are being developed to overcome such issues. Using tissue engineering and cell based approaches, chondrocytes offer prominent therapeutic option specifically in orthopedics for cartilage repair and to treat ailments such as tracheal defects, facial reconstruction, and urinary incontinence. Matrix-assisted autologous chondrocyte transplantation/implantation is an improved version of traditional autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) method. An increasing number of studies show the clinical significance of this technique for the chondral lesions treatment.

  • Musculo-Skeletal System
    Musculo-Skeletal System (Trunk, Limbs, and Head) somite: ectoderm dermatome General Statements: myotome Bilaterally, paraxial mesoderm become sclerotome neural crest somites and somitomeres. (Somitomeres develop ros- intermediate tral to the notochord in the head. They are like somites, but mesoderm neural tube smaller and less distinctly organized.) The mesoderm somatic mesoderm comprising each somite differentiates into three notochord regions: endoderm aorta — dermatome (lateral) which migrates to form dermis of the skin coelom — sclerotome (medial) forms most of the splanchnic mesoderm axial skeleton (vertebrae, ribs, and base of the skull). Mesoderm Regions — myotome (middle) forms skeletal mus- culature. Individual adult muscles are produced by merger of adjacent myotomes. Note: Nerves make early connections with adjacent myotomes and dermatomes, establishing a segmental innervation pattern. As myotome/dermatome cells migrate to assume adult positions, the segmental nerve supply must follow along to maintain its connection to the innervation target. (Recurrent laryngeal & phrenic nerves travel long distances because their targets migrated far away.) Skin. Consists of dermis and epidermis. Epidermis, including hair follicles & glands, is derived from ectoderm. Neural crest cells migrate into epidermis and become melanocytes. (Other neural crest cells become tactile disc receptors.) Dermis arises from mesoderm (dermatomes of somites). Each dermatome forms a continu- ous area of skin innervated by one spinal nerve. Because adjacent dermatomes overlap, a locus of adult skin is formed by 2 or 3 dermatomes, and innervated by 2 or 3 spinal nerves. Muscle. Muscles develop from mesoderm, except for muscles of the iris which arise from optic cup ectoderm. Cardiac and smooth muscles originate from splanchnic mesoderm.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • 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.

Ankit Srivastava1, Dr. Anjoo Yadav2, Prof. R.J. Thomas3, Ms. Neha Gupta4 1Tutor in AIIMS Bhopal. 2Lecturer in Govt. medical college, Kannauj. 3Professor in Govt. medical college, Kannauj. 4Tutor in Govt. medical college, Kannauj. Email: [email protected] Abstract: The upper end of tibia is expanded to form a mass that consists of two parts: lateral and medial condyles which articulate with the corresponding condylar surfaces of the femur. Separating these two condyles is the intercondylar area whose central part is raised to form the intercondylar eminence. The present study will give information of the exact dimensions and percentage covered by medial and lateral condyles out of total condylar area. This study was undertaken to collect metrical data about the medial and lateral condyles of tibia. The present study was performed on 150 dry tibia of north Indian subjects, Out of which 70 tibia belonged to right side and 80 were of left side. The age and sex of these bones were not known. The anteroposterior length of medial and lateral tibial condylar area was measured along with their transverse diameter. The data was statistically analyzed to hold comparisons between tibia of right and left side and also between medial and lateral tibial condyles of the same side. The area covered by MTC is 38.56% and by LTC is 35.97% out of total condylar area in right side.

With the knee in slight flexion, the patient is instructed to isometrically contract the quadriceps. The hip is also flexed, abducted, and medially rotated. Using a perpendicular palpation technique, the edges of the tract can be identified slightly proximal to the level of the base of the patella (Fig. 6.50). Note • The tract is found directly over the lateral epicondyle when the knee is in 30−40° flexion. Less flexion shifts the tract so that it is then anterior to the epicondyle, while more flexion moves it posteriorly. It now be- comes apparent that the iliotibial tract must slide over the epicondyle during the gait cycle. This can oc- casionally cause symptoms. • A significant number of tract fibers extend down to the lateral edge of the patella and insert slightly distal to the vastus lateralis tendon.

  • The Anatomy of the Medial Part of the Knee
    LaPrade.fm Page 2000 Thursday, August 16, 2007 12:24 PM COPYRIGHT © 2007 BY THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY, INCORPORATED The Anatomy of the Medial Part of the Knee By Robert F. LaPrade, MD, PhD, Anders Hauge Engebretsen, Medical Student, Thuan V. Ly, MD, Steinar Johansen, MD, Fred A. Wentorf, MS, and Lars Engebretsen, MD, PhD Investigation performed at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota Background: While the anatomy of the medial part of the knee has been described qualitatively, quantitative de- scriptions of the attachment sites of the main medial knee structures have not been reported. The purpose of the present study was to verify the qualitative anatomy of medial knee structures and to perform a quantitative evaluation of their anatomic attachment sites as well as their relationships to pertinent osseous landmarks. Methods: Dissections were performed and measurements were made for eight nonpaired fresh-frozen cadaveric knees with use of an electromagnetic three-dimensional tracking sensor system. Results: In addition to the medial epicondyle and the adductor tubercle, a third osseous prominence, the gastrocne- mius tubercle, which corresponded to the attachment site of the medial gastrocnemius tendon, was identified. The average length of the superficial medial (tibial) collateral ligament was 94.8 mm. The superficial medial collateral lig- ament femoral attachment was 3.2 mm proximal and 4.8 mm posterior to the medial epicondyle. The superficial me- dial collateral ligament had two separate attachments on the tibia. The distal attachment of the superficial medial collateral ligament on the tibia was 61.2 mm distal to the knee joint.
