(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.

(16) New insights into the biochemical and cell-biological alterations occurring in articular cartilage during the early phase of osteoarthrosis (OA) have been gained in the past decade by analysing experimentally induced osteoarthrosis in animals, mostly dogs and rabbits, while early phases of OA in humans so far have escaped diagnostic evaluation.

(18) After transplantation chondrocytes from regenerated cartilage reconstructed cartilage in one out of ten transplants.
(19) Chemically isolated separate preparations of the non-aggregating protein-chondroitin-keratin sulphate (PCKS) fraction from the hyaline cartilage and hyaluronic acid (HUA) of the vitreous body and of the umbilicus were investigated by electron microscopy.
(20) Standard methods of glycosaminoglycan separation were used to confirm the presence of hyaluronic acid in sheep and rabbit articular cartilage.
Intercartilaginous
Definition:
(a.) Within cartilage; endochondral; as, intercartilaginous ossification.
Example Sentences:
(1) The second consisted of small cells that fired with an expiratory rhythm, had no significant afterhyperpolarization, and projected to the intercartilaginous spaces.
(2) A morphological model of the tidemark region was established, which represents the intercartilaginous junction as a double layer of substantially and functionally different surfaces.
(3) Surgery consisted of an intercartilaginous tracheal slit, with apposition of tracheal mucosa to skin.
(4) The important role of the intercartilaginous junction in the pathogenesis and progress of osteoarthrosis is stressed.
(5) Several components of the tracheal wall including the airway smooth muscle band, the cartilaginous region and the intercartilaginous region generated significant levels of [3H]-InsPs in response to ET-1 and carbachol.
(6) Small areas of depression may be corrected with viable or nonviable cartilage or synthetic implants through an intercartilaginous incision.
(7) The technique described includes an adequate exposure through a bilateral gingivolabial sulcus incision connected by an intercartilaginous incision, release of the displaced alar base and columella, freeing of the alar cartilage from the opposite side and from overlying skin, repositioning of the alar cartilage and alar dome to a normal anatiomical position, and maintenance by a through and through mattress suture and a post-operative nasal pack.
(8) The tracheas from eight macaque monkeys were fixed with glutaraldehyde-paraformaldehyde, embedded in glycol methacrylate, serially sectioned at 2 microns, and histochemically stained to demonstrate neutral, sialylated, and sulfated mucosubstances in the cartilaginous, intercartilaginous, and membranous regions of both proximal and distal trachea.
(9) They were a continuation of the intercartilaginous main vessels of the neotracheal wall.
(10) The use of buccal mucosal flaps in the intercartilaginous incision is helpful to decrease scarring and contracture by facilitating alar cartilage repositioning and wound closure without tension.
(11) The motoneuronal distribution of the intercostal and intercartilaginous muscles showed less overlap than that of the abdominal muscles.
(12) Scanning electron microscopic studies of the skeleton showed normal intercartilaginous septa in the metaphyses of long bones, covered by uniform, calcifying globules 1 mum in diameter.
(13) Using an intercartilaginous, a transseptal and a circumvestibular incision in the nose and a vestibular incision in the oral cavity the soft tissues of the upper face are mobilized and transposed cranially up to the infraorbital rim, the nasion and the lacrimal sac.
(14) In the systematic approach to rhinoplasty, the author routinely uses an intercartilaginous columellar incision for dissection and reconstruction of the nasal tip, especially to facilitate separation of the tip cartilages from other tissues in the lower third of the nose.
(15) Following stimulation with ET-1, a greater proportion of tracheal [3H]-InsPs were generated in the intercartilaginous region (49%) than in either the airway smooth muscle band (25%) or cartilaginous region (26%).
