endochondral ossification

During endochondral ossification, five distinct zones can be seen at the light-microscope level.

This cartilage ultimately develops into new bone tissue through the process of endochondral ossification.

The appendicular skeleton forms during development from cartlilage, by the process of endochondral ossification.

The skull is a complex structure; its bones are formed both by intramembranous and endochondral ossification.

After birth, the cartilaginous components would undergo endochondral ossification.

It is involved in chondrocyte differentiation, proliferation and maturation especially during endochondral ossification.

The deltoid tuberosity develops through endochondral ossification in a two-phase process.

There are two centres of ossification for endochondral ossification.

Endochondral ossification begins with points in the cartilage called "primary ossification centers."

The longitudinal growth of long bones is a result of endochondral ossification at the epiphyseal plate.

Chondrocytes undergo terminal differentiation when they become hypertrophic during endochondral ossification.

The steps in endochondral ossification are:

This temporary cartilage is gradually replaced by bone (Endochondral ossification), a process that ends at puberty.

As with the neurocranium, in Chondricthyes and other cartilaginous vertebrates, they are not replaced via endochondral ossification.

The styloid process arises from endochondral ossification of the cartilage from the second branchial arch.

Endochondral ossification occurs in embryonic skeletal formation, in skeletal growth and fracture healing.

The endocranium, the bones supporting the brain (the occipital, sphenoid, and ethmoid) are largely formed by endochondral ossification.

Endochondral ossification, is one of the two essential processes during fetal development of the mammalian skeletal system by which bone tissue is created.

These results establish the utility of this in vitro system to investigate the role of Hox genes and other transcription factors in endochondral ossification.

The formation of bone during the fetal stage of development occurs by two processes: Intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification.

The blood supply of the foot then begins to infiltrate the tarsal bones, whilst the process of endochondral ossification sees cartilage become bone.

In animals, OCD is considered a developmental and metabolic disorder related to cartilage growth and endochondral ossification.

Some of the outer parts of the scapula are cartilaginous at birth, and would therefore undergo endochondral ossification [2].

In Chondrichthyes and other cartilaginous vertebrates this portion of the cranium does not ossify; it is not replaced via endochondral ossification.

The replacement process is known as endochondral ossification with respect to the hyaline cartilage and bony substitution with respect to the woven bone.
