I referred to the textbook in some of my posts to support my ideas. For example, the quote "It is mentioned…

Ligaments connect bones together and are made up of grossly parallel, fibrous, dense connective tissue.1 Many ligaments are parts of anatomically inseparable structures known as joint capsules, and this is certainly the case with the wrist. Ligaments often have a more vascular overlying layer termed the "epiligament" covering their surface. This layer is often indistinguishable from the actual ligament and merges into the periosteum of the bone around the attachment sites of the ligament.7…

An important transcription factor necessary for T cell development and differentiation is Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1), also known as acute myeloid leukemia 1 protein (AML1) or core-binding factor subunit alpha-2 (CBFA2) (10, 11). It is one of three RUNX proteins found in humans, all of which possess a highly conserved 128 amino acid Runt DNA-binding domain at the N-terminus. The Runt domain is important for binding with consensus sequence (PyGPyGGTPy) in DNA and with core binding…
