NL and MF collected human bone samples from autopsies at the Forensic Science Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark.
East Asian mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) especially of Koreans has been used to determine single nucleotide polymorphisms in mtDNA in human bone samples from premodern Joseon tombs in Republic of Korea (C. S. Oh et al).. Archeological materials useful for the study of bioarcheology are conserved in museums throughout the world.
Experiments on human trabecular bone samples from a healthy male donor revealed that failure of such samples is highly localized in fracture bands.
Human studies also concur with experimental animal models that suggested that bone samples from animals with diabetes were weaker than those from animals without diabetes, possibly due to mechanical deterioration and decrease in bone strength (12, 13).
Previously described experiments with high hydrostatic pressure application about 600 MPa to human bone samples led to a complete disinfection in no more than 2 of 37 bone samples from patients with chronic osteomyelitis [ 51].
Additionally, research by Brodziak-Dopierala et al. [ 14] performed on trabecular bone samples taken from human femoral heads reveals interactions between Pb and Cd with a high correlation coefficient.
A total of 74 bone marrow samples from human leukemia patients and 15 bone marrow samples taken as normal controls were collected from Changhai Hospital in Shanghai with written consent.
To investigate the significance of Class I HDACs (HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, and HDAC8), HDAC11, and Klfs (Klf1, KLf3, Klf4, and Klf7) in the pathogenesis of human leukemia, we used real-time RT-PCR to evaluate the expression of HDACs and Klfs in bone marrow samples from human leukemia patients.
The bone samples were harvested from human femoral heads during orthopaedical procedures of hip joint implantation.
Bone marrow samples from healthy human were obtained from (Lonza, Walkersville, USA).
