Abstract excerpt
A histological analysis was performed on two secondary cartilages, the mandibular condyle and the medial end of clavicle, in transgenic mice harboring two different types of mutations in the cartilage-specific type II collagen gene. Considerable differences were observed in the maturation zone of...
