In situ measurement of transport between subchondral bone and articular cartilage.

29 Sep 2009 Subchondral bone and articular cartilage play complementary roles in load bearing of the joints. Although the biomechanical coupling between subchondral bone and articular cartilage is well established, it remains unclear whether direct biochemical ... Read more...

The FOXF2 pathway in the human prostate stroma.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Forkhead box 2 (FOXF2) is a member of the large family of forkhead transcription factors and its expression pattern suggests a role in prostate cancer development. FOXF2 expression is stroma-specific and higher expressed in the prostate ... Read more...

Preparation of rat brain aggregate cultures for neuron and glia development studies.

28 Sep 2009 An in vitro system that recapitulates the development and differentiation of progenitors into mature neurons and glia in the central nervous system (CNS) would provide a powerful platform for neuroscientists to investigate axo-glial interactions, ... Read more...
