What's the difference between arytenoid and cartilage?

Arytenoid


Definition:

  • (a.) Ladle-shaped; -- applied to two small cartilages of the larynx, and also to the glands, muscles, etc., connected with them. The cartilages are attached to the cricoid cartilage and connected with the vocal cords.

  • (15) These sutures run in the submucosa horizontally along the anterior surface of the arytenoid cartilage and are fixed through burr holes on the posterior margin of the thyroid cartilage.

  • (18) An uncommon type of injury is the unilateral degloving of an arytenoid cartilage following laterally directed trauma to the thyroid cartilage.
  • (19) Arytenoid abduction was expressed as a left:right ratio of rima glottidis measurements.
  • (20) 2 examples of arytenoid cartilage have been selected to demonstrate the possibilities of interpretation of product density supported by the L function.

Cartilage


Definition:

  • (n.) A translucent, elastic tissue; gristle.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The fibrous matrix and cartilage formed within the nonunion site transformed to osteoid and bone with increased vascularity.
  • (2) In reconstruction of the orbital floor, homograft lyophilised dura or cialit-stord rib cartilage are suitable, but the best materials are autologous cartilage or silastic or teflon.
  • (3) To selectively stain polyanionic macromolecules of growth plate cartilage and to prevent artifacts induced by aqueous fixation, proximal tibial growth plates were excised from rats, slam-frozen, and freeze-substituted in 100% methanol containing the cationic dye Alcian blue.
  • (4) Altering the time of PMA exposure demonstrated that PMA inhibited chondrocyte phenotypic expression, rather than cell commitment: early (0-48 h) exposure to PMA (during chondrocytic commitment in vitro) had little inhibitory effect on the staining index, whereas, exposure from 49-96 h (presumably post-commitment) and 0-96 h had moderate and strong inhibitory effects, respectively, on cartilage synthesis.
  • (5) 2) Neurotropin had no effect on the autolytic degradation of cartilage, but promoted the incorporation of 14C-acetate into the proteoglycan in the articular cartilage of rabbits.
  • (6) A complete review of the literature was made which shows that most chondrosarcomas occur in middle-aged males originating most often from the posterior cricoid lamina, next from the thyroid cartilage.
  • (7) For comparison, the expression of genes encoding type II collagen and cartilage proteoglycan core protein was also examined.
  • (8) In osteoarthritic cartilage, compared with normal cartilage, there was no increase in water binding but water content increased by 9 per cent and the avidity with which the newly bound water was held also increased.
  • (9) They were identified by the immunoblotting technique in extracts of chick articular cartilage from various sites and in extracts of cartilage from other species.
  • (10) A lysosomal membrane labilizer, vitamin A, exacerbated the cartilage pathology, whereas a stabilizer, cortisone, retarded it.
  • (11) The complete thyroid cartilage is dissected out, and then a horizontal cut is made through the cricoid cartilage.
  • (12) The buccal glands of adults of the Southern Hemisphere lamprey Geotria australis consist of a pair of small, bean-shaped, hollow sacs, embedded within the basilaris muscle in the region below the eyes and to either side of the piston cartilage.
  • (13) These observations suggest that the function of BMG is to evoke mesenchymal cell differentiation into prechondroblasts during the latent or migratory morphogenetic phase while the effect of the culture medium is to provide the bionutritional requirements for synthesis of hyaline cartilage matrix by chondrocytes during the patent phase of development.
  • (14) The cartilage of the concha is a valuable substitute of the bridge and the posterior wall of the external auditory conduct.
