Reproductive System Reference Sheet 3: GLOSSARY Anus – The opening in the buttocks from which bowel movements come when a person goes to the bathroom. It is part of the digestive system; it gets rid of body wastes. Buttocks – The medical word for a person’s “bottom” or “rear end.” Cervix – The opening of the uterus into the vagina. Circumcision – An operation to remove the foreskin from the penis. Cowper’s Glands – Glands on either side of the urethra that make a discharge which lines the urethra when a man gets an erection, making it less acid-like to protect the sperm. Clitoris – The part of the female genitals that’s full of nerves and becomes erect. It has a glans and a shaft like the penis, but only its glans is on the out side of the body, and it’s much smaller. Discharge – Liquid. Urine and semen are kinds of discharge, but the word is usually used to describe either the normal wetness of the vagina or the abnormal wetness that may come from an infection in the penis or vagina. Duct – Tube, the fallopian tubes may be called oviducts, because they are the path for an ovum. -

Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Combination with Hyaluronic Acid
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Combination with Hyaluronic Acid for Articular Cartilage Defects Received: 1 August 2017 Lang Li1, Xin Duan1, Zhaoxin Fan2, Long Chen1,3, Fei Xing1, Zhao Xu4, Qiang Chen2,5 & Accepted: 19 April 2018 Zhou Xiang1 Published: xx xx xxxx Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hyaluronic acid (HA) have been found in previous studies to have great potential for medical use. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic efects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) combined with HA on articular cartilage repair in canines. Twenty-four healthy canines (48 knee-joints), male or female with weight ranging from 5 to 6 kg, were operated on to induce cartilage defect model and divided into 3 groups randomly which received diferent treatments: BMSCs plus HA (BMSCs-HA), HA alone, and saline. Twenty-eight weeks after treatment, all canines were sacrifced and analyzed by gross appearance, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, Masson staining, toluidine blue staining, type II collagen immunohistochemistry, gross grading scale and histological scores. MSCs plus HA regenerated more cartilage-like tissue than did HA alone or saline. According to the macroscopic evaluation and histological assessment score, treatment with MSCs plus HA also lead to signifcant improvement in cartilage defects compared to those in the other 2 treatment groups (P < 0.05). These fndings suggested that allogeneic BMSCs plus HA rather than HA alone was efective in promoting the formation of cartilage-like tissue for repairing cartilage defect in canines. Articular cartilage is composed of chondrocyte and extracellular matrix and has an important role in joint move- ment including lubrication, shock absorption and conduction. -

Int. J. Morphol., 35(2):684-690, 2017. SUMMARY: The plantar aponeurosis (PA), which is a thickened layer of deep fascia located on the plantar surface of the foot, is comprised of three parts. There are differing opinions on its nomenclature since various authors use the terms PA and plantar fascia (PF) interchangeably. In addition, the variable classifications of its parts has led to confusion. In order to assess the nature of the PA, this study documented its morphology. Furthermore, a pilot histological analysis was conducted to examine whether the structure is an aponeurosis or fascia. This study comprised of a morphological analysis of the three parts of the PA by micro- and macro-dissection of 50 fetal and 50 adult cadaveric feet, respectively (total n=100). Furthermore, a pilot histological analysis was conducted on five fetuses (n=10) and five adults (n=10) (total n=20). In each foot, the histological analysis was conducted on the three parts of the plantar aponeurosis, i.e. the central, lateral, and medial at their calcaneal origin (total n=60). Fetuses: i) Morphology: In 66 % (33/50) of the specimens, the standard anatomical pattern was observed, viz. -
Expression of Integrins and Basement Membrane Components by Wound Keratinocytes
Expression of integrins and basement membrane components by wound keratinocytes. H Larjava, … , R H Kramer, J Heino J Clin Invest. 1993;92(3):1425-1435. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI116719. Research Article Extracellular matrix proteins and their cellular receptors, integrins, play a fundamental role in keratinocyte adhesion and migration. During wound healing, keratinocytes detach, migrate until the two epithelial sheets confront, and then regenerate the basement membrane. We examined the expression of different integrins and their putative ligands in keratinocytes during human mucosal wound healing. Migrating keratinocytes continuously expressed kalinin but not the other typical components of the basement membrane zone: type IV collagen, laminin, and type VII collagen. When the epithelial sheets confronted each other, these missing basement membrane components started to appear gradually through the entire wound area. The expression of integrin beta 1 subunit was increased in keratinocytes during migration. The beta 1-associated alpha 2 and alpha 3 subunits were expressed constantly by wound keratinocytes whereas the alpha 5 subunit was present only in keratinocytes during reepithelialization. Furthermore, migrating cells started to express alpha v-integrins which were not present in the nonaffected epithelium. All keratinocytes also expressed the alpha 6 beta 4 integrin during migration. In the migrating cells, the distribution of integrins was altered. In normal mucosa, beta 1-integrins were located mainly on the lateral plasma membrane and alpha 6 beta 4 at the basal surface of basal keratinocytes in the nonaffected tissue. In wounds, integrins were found in filopodia of migrating keratinocytes, and also surrounding cells in […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/116719/pdf Expression of Integrins and Basement Membrane Components by Wound Keratinocytes Hannu Lariava, * Tuula Salo,t Kirsi Haapasalmi, * Randall H. -

Endotrophin Triggers Adipose Tissue Fibrosis and Metabolic Dysfunction
ARTICLE Received 12 Sep 2013 | Accepted 21 Feb 2014 | Published 19 Mar 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4485 Endotrophin triggers adipose tissue fibrosis and metabolic dysfunction Kai Sun1,*, Jiyoung Park1,2,*, Olga T. Gupta1, William L. Holland1, Pernille Auerbach3, Ningyan Zhang4, Roberta Goncalves Marangoni5, Sarah M. Nicoloro6, Michael P. Czech6, John Varga5, Thorkil Ploug3, Zhiqiang An4 & Philipp E. Scherer1,7 We recently identified endotrophin as an adipokine with potent tumour-promoting effects. However, the direct effects of local accumulation of endotrophin in adipose tissue have not yet been studied. Here we use a doxycycline-inducible adipocyte-specific endotrophin overexpression model to demonstrate that endotrophin plays a pivotal role in shaping a metabolically unfavourable microenvironment in adipose tissue during consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD). Endotrophin serves as a powerful co-stimulator of pathologically relevant pathways within the ‘unhealthy’ adipose tissue milieu, triggering fibrosis and inflammation and ultimately leading to enhanced insulin resistance. We further demonstrate that blocking endotrophin with a neutralizing antibody ameliorates metabolically adverse effects and effectively reverses metabolic dysfunction induced during HFD exposure. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that endotrophin exerts a major influence in adipose tissue, eventually resulting in systemic elevation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and insulin resistance, and the results establish endotrophin as a potential target in the context of metabolism and cancer. 1 Touchstone Diabetes Center, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, Texas 75390, USA. 2 Department of Biological Sciences, School of Life Sciences, Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, 50 UNIST street, Ulsan 689-798, Korea.
