Evaluation of age-related changes in the structure of the equine tarsometatarsal osteochondral unit
Journal Article
Murray, R. C., Blunden, T. S., Branch, M. V., Tranquille, C. A., Dyson, S. J., Parkin, T. D. H., & Goodship, A. E. Evaluation of age-related changes in the structure of the equine tarsometatarsal osteochondral unit. American Journal of Veterinary Research, 70(1), 30-36

Objective-To investigate effects of age on thickness and morphologic characteristics of hyaline cartilage, calcified cartilage, total cartilage, and subchondral bone (SCB) in the equine tarsometatarsal joint. Sample Population-23 tarsal joints from c... Read More about Evaluation of age-related changes in the structure of the equine tarsometatarsal osteochondral unit.

Relocation of myosin and actin, kinesin and tubulin in the acrosome reaction of bovine spermatozoa
Journal Article
Oikonomopoulou, I., Patel, H., Watson, P. F., & Chantler, P. D. Relocation of myosin and actin, kinesin and tubulin in the acrosome reaction of bovine spermatozoa. https://doi.org/10.1071/RD8166

The mammalian acrosome reaction is a specialised exocytotic event. Although molecular motors are known to be involved in exocytosis in many cell types, their potential involvement in the acrosome reaction has remained unknown. Here, it has been shown...

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.
