... their neighbouring osteones, the same relationship between anterior and posterior interstitial lamellae as a function of angle was found as for the osteones. The anisotropy of these Young’s moduli determined by nanoindentation shows a close relationship with what was to be expected from the histological findings...

.... There was no change in the degree of orientation (anisotropy) of capillaries, capillary-to-fiber ratio or fiber type distribution compared with controls. The volume density of mitochondria and lipid droplets in aerobic fibers and capillary diameter increased in response to cold, while the linear relationship between...
