Deep fascia is less extensible than superficial fascia.It is essentially avascular, [2] but is richly innervated with sensory receptors that report the presence of pain (nociceptors); change in movement (proprioceptors); change in pressure and vibration (mechanoreceptors); change in the chemical milieu (chemoreceptors); and fluctuation in temperature (thermoreceptors).
Deep fascia was originally considered to be essentially avascular but later investigations have confirmed a rich presence of thin blood vessels. [20] Deep fascia is also richly supplied with sensory receptors. [21] Examples of deep fascia are fascia lata, fascia cruris, brachial fascia, plantar fascia, thoracolumbar fascia and Buck's fascia.
Vasodilator innervation is restricted to the following sites : 1.) The vessels of the skeletal muscle are dilated by cholinergic sympathetic nerves 2.) The vessels of the exocrine gland are dilated on parasympathetic stimulation 3.) The cutaneous vessels are dilated locally to produce the flare after an injury.
Vascular smooth muscle is innervated primarily by the sympathetic nervous system through adrenergic receptors (adrenoceptors). The three types present are: alpha-1, alpha-2 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors|. The main endogenous agonist of these cell receptors is norepinephrine (NE).
an outer (fibrous membrane, fibrous stratum) composed of avascular white fibrous tissue an inner ( synovial membrane , synovial stratum ) which is a secreting layer On the inside of the capsule, articular cartilage covers the end surfaces of the bones that articulate within that joint.

Hilton's law, espoused by John Hilton in a series of medical lectures given in 1860–1862, [1] is the observation that in the study of anatomy, the nerve supplying the muscles extending directly across and acting at a given joint not only supplies the muscle, but also innervates the joint and the skin overlying the muscle.
Adopted by Gen Z and Gen Alpha, it gained new prominence in 2024, according to Oxford, as a term used to capture concerns about the impact of consuming excessive amounts of "low-quality online ...
