(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.

Tarsale
Definition:
(n.) One of the bones or cartilages of the tarsus; esp., one of the series articulating with the metatarsals.
Example Sentences:
(1) Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica - an epiphyseal developmental disturbance of the skeleton - is combined with exostose-like, tumor-simulating cartilaginous hypertrophy of bone tissue, mainly located at the epiphyses of the lower extremities and at the tarsal bones.
(2) Osteopetrosis is diffuse and is associated with important metaphyseal widening as well as epiphyseal irregularities and often carpal and tarsal supernumerary bones.
(3) Operative treatment was used 22 times (5 sesamoid fractures, 5 midtibial fractures, 5 metatarsal V base fractures, 3 tarsal navicular fractures, 3 olecranon fractures, and 1 proximal tibial shaft fracture).
(4) The resulting free anterior tarsal surface must be covered by a free graft to prevent tarsal shrinking.
