Responsible Research involves setting moral examples before fellow academicians and the society as a whole. The concept of Responsible Research applies appropriately to ethical sourcing and handling of human tissues. The present study was undertaken to analyze present situation regarding implementation of attributes of Relevant Research in relation to body donors in anatomical research. A literature search of relevant, peer-reviewed, published articles was undertaken from indexed databases (Medline & PubMed, Scopus, Embase, CINAHL Plus, Web of Science and Google Scholar) for this study. The following attributes of Responsible Research were identified for possible intervention: the fact that research was conducted on human tissues from body donors and details regarding ethical handling thereof may be explicitly mentioned in method section; expression of gratitude towards body donors by authors may be included in acknowledgement section; editor’s and publisher’s note in support of adoption of attributes of Responsible Research may be included in published research. Adherence to best practices in terms of ethical guidelines requires anatomists to embrace a responsible approach in research from an inclusive perspective. Accordingly, practice of acknowledging the body donors may be nurtured and augmented to include the anonymised dead (human tissues from unclaimed bodies and unknown source) provided the research protocol received clearance from authorities concerned with ethical scrutiny. Moreover, adoption of the practice in review articles will enhance the boundaries of Responsible Research in anatomical science. Thus, few recommendations are proposed as epilogue for effectual implementation of the notion floated in present study.

负责任的研究涉及在院士同行和整个社会面前树立道德榜样。负责任的研究概念适当地适用于人体组织的道德采购和处理。本研究旨在分析解剖学研究中与遗体捐献者相关的相关研究属性的实施现状。本研究从索引数据库（Medline & PubMed、Scopus、Embase、CINAHL Plus、Web of Science 和 Google Scholar）中对相关的、经过同行评审的已发表文章进行了文献检索。负责任研究的以下属性被确定为可能的干预措施：研究是对来自捐献者的人体组织进行的事实，以及有关道德处理的细节可以在方法部分明确提及；作者对遗体捐赠者表达的谢意可以包含在致谢部分；支持采用负责任研究属性的编辑和出版商注释可以包含在已发表的研究中。遵守道德准则方面的最佳实践要求解剖学家从包容性的角度采取负责任的研究方法。因此，如果研究方案得到了有关伦理审查的当局的批准，那么承认尸体捐赠者的做法可能会得到培育和扩大，以包括匿名死者（来自无人认领尸体和未知来源的人体组织）。此外，在评论文章中采用这种做法将扩大解剖科学中负责任研究的界限。因此，很少有人提出建议作为有效实施本研究中提出的概念的结语。
