Periotic


Definition:

  • (a.) Surrounding, or pertaining to the region surrounding, the internal ear; as, the periotic capsule.
  • (n.) A periotic bone.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) One wall of the recess is associated with a diverticulum of the intracapsular periotic sac, and an adjacent wall is occupied by the basilar papilla.
  • (2) The recess is an evagination of the lagena, and is invested externally by dense periotic connective tissue, except over a thin area of one wall abutting against a periotic diverticulum communicating with the periotic sac.

  • (4) These findings suggest that the otocyst acts as an inductor of chondrogenesis of periotic mesenchyme tissue between embryonic days 11 to 13, and controls capsular morphogenesis between embryonic days 13 to 14 in the mouse embryo.
  • (5) In addition, utilizing a high-density culture system as an in vitro model of otic capsule chondrogenesis, we show that modulation of chondrogenesis by TGF-beta 1 in cultured mouse periotic mesenchyme mimics the in vitro effects of otic epithelium on the expression of chondrogenic potential.
  • (6) The otic relationships of the recess and papilla to the proximal part of the lagena and saccule are described, and new terminology is suggested for the periotic relationships of the basilar recess to a diverticulum of an intracapsular periotic sac.
