Additionally, trabeculae in larger animals are thicker, further apart, and less densely connected than those in smaller animals. Intra-trabecular osteon can commonly be found in thick trabeculae of larger animals, as well as thinner trabeculae of smaller animals such as cheetah and lemurs. The osteons play a role in the diffusion of nutrients ...
The trabeculae carneae (columnae carneae or meaty ridges) are rounded or irregular muscular columns which project from the inner surface of the right and left ventricle of the heart. [1] These are different from the pectinate muscles, which are present in the atria of the heart. In development, trabeculae carneae are among the first of the ...
Trabecular cartilages (trabeculae cranii, sometimes simply trabeculae, prechordal cartilages) are paired, rod-shaped cartilages, which develop in the head of the vertebrate embryo. They are the primordia of the anterior part of the cranial base , and are derived from the cranial neural crest cells .
The trabeculae are aligned towards the mechanical load distribution that a bone experiences within long bones such as the femur. As far as short bones are concerned, trabecular alignment has been studied in the vertebral pedicle. [15] Thin formations of osteoblasts covered in endosteum create an irregular network of spaces, [16] known
The fibroelastic coat of the spleen invests the organ, and at the hilum is reflected inward upon the vessels in the form of sheaths. From these sheaths, as well as from the inner surface of the fibroelastic coat, numerous small fibrous bands, the trabeculae of the spleen (or splenic trabeculae), emerge from all directions; these uniting, constitute the frame-work of the spleen.
The arachnoid trabeculae (AT) are delicate strands of connective tissue that loosely connect the two innermost layers of the meninges – the arachnoid mater and the pia mater. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They are found within the subarachnoid space where cerebrospinal fluid is also found.
The arachnoid mater is named after the Greek word arachne ("spider"), the suffix -oid ("in the image of"), and the Latin word mater ("mother"), because of the fine spider-web–like appearance of the delicate fibres of the arachnoid (arachnoid trabeculae) which extend down through the subarachnoid space and attach to the pia mater.
Diploë (/ ˈ d ɪ p l oʊ i / or DIP-lo-ee) is the spongy cancellous bone separating the inner and outer layers of the cortical bone of the skull. [1] It is a subclass of trabecular bone.
