This and the pattern of expression of this gene in chicken inner ear paralleled the histologic findings of acidophilic deposits, consistent with mucopolysaccharide ground substance, in temporal bones from DFNA9 ( autosomal dominant nonsyndromic sensorineural deafness 9 ) patients.

Cartilage is composed of specialized cells called chondrocytes that produce a large amount of extracellular matrix composed of Type II collagen ( except Fibrocartilage which also contains type I collagen ) fibers, abundant ground substance rich in proteoglycan, and elastin fibers.

Each type of connective tissue in animals has a type of ECM : collagen fibers and bone mineral comprise the ECM of bone tissue; reticular fibers and ground substance comprise the ECM of loose connective tissue; and blood plasma is the ECM of blood.

It is primarily associated with a characteristic histologic appearance known as'medial necrosis'or'Erdheim cystic medial necrosis'in which there is degeneration and fragmentation of elastic fibers, loss of smooth muscle cells, and an accumulation of basophilic ground substance.

:Like quartz crystal, collagen in the ground substance and the more stable connective tissues ( fascia, tendons, bones, etc . ) . transforms mechanical energy ( pressure, torsion, stretch ) into electromagnetic energy, which then resonates through the ground substance ( Athenstaedt, 1974 ).

He worked again with Goldman as an assistant professor researching connective tissue ground substance, work that was to form a chapter in Rothman s book " Physiology and Biochemistry of the Skin ", ( Chicago, University of Chicago Press, 1954 . ) That year Wells and his wife returned to England.

Research by Heine indicates that unresolved emotional traumas release a neurotransmitter substance P which causes the collagen to take on a hexagonal structure that is more ordered than their usual structure, putting the ground substance out of balance, what he calls an " emotional scar " providing " an important scientific verification that diseases can have psychological causes . " ( see also Bruce Lipton)

The idea that protoplasm of eukaryotes is simply divisible into a ground substance called " cytoplasm " and a structural body called the cell nucleus reflects the more primitive knowledge of cell structure that preceded the development of electron microscopy, when it seemed that cytoplasm was a homogeneous fluid and the existence of most sub-cellular compartments, or how cells maintain their shape, was unknown.
40.
It is made up of 70 % inorganic materials ( mainly hydroxylapatite and some non-crystalline amorphous calcium phosphate ), 20 % organic materials ( 90 % of which is collagen type 1 and the remaining 10 % ground substance, which includes dentine-specific proteins ), and 10 % water ( which is absorbed on the surface of the minerals or between the crystals ).
