Abstract

An electron microscopic study of the tibial epiphyseal plates of growing rats reveals that the resorption of unmineralized and mineralized cartilage occurs by two different mechanisms. During resorption the unmineralized transverse cartilaginous walls between chondrocytes are invaded by capillary sprouts. At the resorption zone, numerous cytoplasmic processes derived primarily from the perivascular cells and, to a lesser extent, from the endothelial cells of the sprouts penetrate and appear to lyse the unmineralized transverse cartilaginous walls. Hydrolases released from the degenerating chondrocytes and/or capillary sprouts may also participate in this process. The second resorption mechanism involves the mineralized longitudinal cartilaginous septa. Resorption of these septa is mediated by chondroclasts whose fine structure is identical with that of osteoclasts. The active surface of the chondroclasts has a ruffled border. The surface membrane of the chondroclasts is relatively smooth on either side of the ruffled border and lies in direct apposition with the underlying mineralized cartilage. This observation suggests that the microenvironment in the zone of resorption may be maintained by the neighboring unruffled surfaces of the chondroclasts, which thus seal off and segregate the active portions of these cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
