CELL DIVISION IN ENDOCHONDRAL OSSIFICATION: A Study of Cell Proliferation in Rat Bones by the Method of Tritiated Thymidine Autoradiography

Kember, N. F.·1960·The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume

Abstract

1. The pattern of tritiated thymidine labelling in the cells of the epiphysial cartilage and metaphysis of the tibia in the rat is described for intervals of one hour to twenty-eight days after injection. 2. The region of dividing cells is defined and evidence given for a zone of reserve cells at the top of the cartilage columns. 3. The difficulties of quantitative grain count studies are discussed, and some approximate values are given for the generation time and mitotic cycle periods of the cartilage plate cells. 4. Some further evidence is given about the life cycles of the osteoblast and the osteoclast.

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.
