The role of peripheral nerve fibers and their neurotransmitters in cartilage and bone physiology and pathophysiology
The peripheral nervous system is critically involved in bone metabolism, osteogenesis, and bone remodeling. Nerve fibers of sympathetic and sensory origin innervate synovial tissue and subchondral bone of diathrodial joints. They modulate vascularization and matrix differentiation during endochondra...
