It might also be an important cause of hip osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore in this study we evaluated the frequency of cam-type FAI in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients as a potential alternative cause of hip or trochanteric pain.
Chromosomes are made from DNA. Genes are short sections of DNA. Genetically identical cells are produced by a type of cell division called mitosis. In sexual reproduction, a male gamete fuses with a female gamete to produce a new cell. This is called fertilisation. Gametes are produced by a type of cell division called meiosis.
DNA is organized in sections called genes. Genes code for proteins, and it is proteins that do all the work in the cell. They function as structural proteins â serving as the building blocks of cells and bodies. And they function as enzymes â directing all the chemical reactions in living organisms.
