Abstract:Nerves in bone play well-established roles in pain and vasoregulation and have been associated with progression of skeletal disorders including osteoporosis, fracture, arthritis and tumor metastasis. However, isolation of the region-specific mechanisms underlying these relationships is limited by our lack of comprehensive maps of skeletal innervation. To overcome this, we mapped sympathetic adrenergic and sensory peptidergic axons within the limb in two strains of mice (B6 and C3H). In the periosteum, these ma… Show more
