The musculoskeletal system consists of bones, blood vessels, nerves, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage, which work together to perform the structural and kinematic functions of the organism. These musculoskeletal tissues all have a composite structure of cells embedded in a matrix produced by the cells themselves. [Pg.115]

Tea extracts have been demonstrated to inhibit a wide range of inflammatory responses and may be useful in treating chronic inflammatory states. For example, rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease that causes pain, swelling, stiffness and loss of function in the joints. The antioxidants in green tea may prevent or reduce the severity of these symptoms by reducing inflammation and slowing cartilage breakdown (Adcocks et al, 2002 Haqqi et al, 1999). [Pg.136]

The VN cartilage, the VN glands and the vasomotor network are all functionally necessary components without whose various contributions the receptor cells would be unlikely to function. These ancillary constituents show a parallel developmental sequence. The cartilage may become partly ossified and incompletely surrounds the organ, the enclosure lessening towards the posterior end. In the mature organ, maximum enclosure is usually found along the sensory section. [Pg.80]
