Here, we present a systematic approach for developing physiologically relevant, sensitive and specific in vivo assays for interpreting variation in human pathology. Transient genetic manipulation via microinjection of WT and mutant human mRNA and morpholino (MO) antisense oligonucleotides harness the tractability of the developing zebrafish embryo to rapidly assay pathogenic mutations, especially, but not exclusively, in the context of human developmental disorders.

Physical models representing molecular architectures of chemical compounds play essential roles in understanding chemistry. The use of molecular models makes it easier to visualize the structures and shapes of atoms and molecules. Skeletal Model Simpler two-dimensional representations of chemical compounds are accomplished using skeletal models. The illustration shows only the molecular framework or bonds without explicitly showing the atoms. In this representation, many of the carbon atoms...

Scaled Anatomical Model Creation of Biomedical Tomographic Imaging Data and Associated Labels for Subsequent Sub-surface Laser Engraving (SSLE) of Glass Crystals
0 Views •
2017
A methodology is described herein for representing anatomical imaging data within crystals. We create scaled three-dimensional models of biomedical imaging data for use in Sub-Surface Laser Engraving (SSLE) of crystal glass. This tool offers a useful complement to computational display or three-dimensionally printed models used within clinical or educational settings.
FAQs
Introduced pathogens can establish local colonization, activate host immune responses, and disrupt normal bone remodeling. These linked changes allow investigators to examine how microbial persistence relates to inflammation and tissue damage rather than studying each process in isolation. Measuring these responses helps connect infection biology with skeletal consequences and supports evaluation of interventions under controlled experimental conditions.
Each system captures a different level of disease biology. Cultured bone cells support focused studies of cellular responses, while three-dimensional tissues provide a more tissue-like setting for interactions between microbes and skeletal structures. Animal systems extend the investigation to integrated host responses. Selecting among them depends on whether the study emphasizes cellular mechanisms, tissue behavior, or broader biological interactions.
Infection-associated biomaterials provide experimental settings for examining osteomyelitis in relation to materials linked with infection. They can help researchers investigate how microbial colonization, host inflammation, and altered bone remodeling interact around a material-associated condition. This makes them particularly relevant for studying implant-associated infections and for testing strategies intended to address both infection and skeletal tissue damage.
A study generally begins by selecting an experimental system suited to the research question, followed by introducing a pathogen under controlled conditions. Investigators then examine local colonization, immune responses, and changes in bone remodeling. The same model can subsequently be used to assess an antimicrobial treatment, an implant-associated infection strategy, or an approach aimed at bone repair.
Researchers can use these models when they need to examine antimicrobial treatments, implant-associated infections, or strategies for bone repair in a controlled setting. The experimental system allows treatment-related effects to be considered alongside microbial persistence, inflammation, and tissue damage. This supports comparisons that are difficult to perform directly in patients and helps link intervention outcomes to underlying disease biology.
These models can reveal how microbes, immune cells, and skeletal tissue influence one another during infection. In addition to indicating whether microbial colonization occurs, they support analysis of inflammatory responses and altered bone remodeling. Such information helps explain disease mechanisms and provides biological context for interpreting treatment effects, implant-associated complications, and attempts to promote bone repair.
