Bone tissue, with its complex structure, often necessitates decalcification of the hard tissue for ex vivo morphological studies. The choice of a suitable decalcification method plays a crucial role in preserving desired features and ensuring compatibility with diverse imaging techniques. The search for a universal decalcification method that is suitable for a range of biophotonic analyses remains an ongoing challenge.

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder affecting mainly type I collagen, which leads to bone fragility and deformities. OI patients also present craniofacial abnormalities such as macrocephaly and malocclusion. Recently, craniofacial dysmorphism was highlighted in the osteogenesis imperfecta mouse (oim), a validated model of the most severe form of OI.

The application of Clear Gorilla Glue® household adhesive to microscope slides has been found to enhance the mounting and retention of traditionally difficult tissue types, notably bone and tooth specimens. Improvement in end results were observed across H&E staining, immunohistochemistry, and hybridization.

Background: Anchovy is a commonly used food ingredient due to its high calcium content, which supports craniofacial growth. Calcium stimulates the formation of osteoblasts, which produce osteoprotegerin (OPG). OPG binds to RANKL, blocking RANKL-RANK bonding and limiting osteoclast development.

Biomaterials are widely used as orthopaedic implants and bone graft substitutes. We aimed to develop a rapid osteogenic assessment method using a murine tibial periosteal ossification model to evaluate the bone formation/remodelling potential of a biomaterial within 2-4 weeks. A novel hydroxyapatite/aragonite (HAA) biomaterial was implanted into C57BL/6 mice juxtaskeletally between the tibia and tibialis anterior muscle.
