Ultrasound mimics the effect of mechanical loading on bone formation in vivo on rat ulnae
Journal Article
Perry, M. J., Parry, L. K., Burton, V. J., Gheduzzi, S., Beresford, J. N., Humphrey, V. F., & Skerry, T. M. Ultrasound mimics the effect of mechanical loading on bone formation in vivo on rat ulnae. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.medengphy.2008.04.003

While the effect of ultrasound as an extreme example of low-magnitude high-frequency stimulation has been explored in the response of bone to injury, little is known about its effect on normal bone. This experiment was designed to test the hypothesis... Read More about Ultrasound mimics the effect of mechanical loading on bone formation in vivo on rat ulnae.

Genetic selection for fast growth generates bone architecture characterised by enhanced periosteal expansion and limited consolidation of the cortices but a diminution in the early responses to mechanical loading

An Fgf8-Dependent Bistable Cell Migratory Event Establishes CNS Asymmetry
Journal Article
Regan, J. C., Concha, M. L., Roussigne, M., Russell, C., & Wilson, S. W. An Fgf8-Dependent Bistable Cell Migratory Event Establishes CNS Asymmetry. Neuron, 61(1), 27-34. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2008.11.030

Neuroanatomical and functional asymmetries are universal features of the vertebrate CNS, but how asymmetry is generated is unknown. Here we show that zebrafish fgf8 mutants do not elaborate forebrain asymmetries, demonstrated by the failure of the pa...
