33
Q

How do we develop and make bone?

A

there are two different paths of development and each one will use the same two steps to make the bone and we end up with two different types of bone so…2 by 2 by 2 makes bone! (intramembranous or Endochondral formation makes 1. primary=woven and 2. secondary bone=lamellar, to end up with 1. Compact Cortical bone or 2. Spongy Cancellous Trabecular bone

34
Q

The two processes of making bone

A

osteoblasts begin to make bone in : 1. Loose connective tissue in a process called intramembranous bone formation. -or- 2. Hylanine cartilage that makes a matrix and has just died in a process called endochondral bone formation.

35
Q

what is bone formation on loose connective tissue?

A

intramembranous bone formation

36
Q

bone formation on cartilage matrix

A

endochondral bone formation

37
Q

the two steps in bone formation

A
  1. primary bone = woven bone; 2. Secondary bone = Lamellar bone
38
Q

what is woven bone

A

random collagen fiber orientation: temporary bone that is removed or replaced with secondary bone

39
Q

what is secondary bone

A

parrallel collagen fibers arranged in layres, can become permanent but will be continuously remodeled.

40
Q

The two types of mature bone:

A

compact bone = cortical bone; Spongy bone=cancellous bone=trabecular bone

41
Q

what is trabecular bone

A

thin bone that can be nourished form outside

42
Q

what is compact bone

A

thick bone that requires internal blood supply: osteons

43
Q

the microscopic organization of primary (woven bone)

A

randomly oriented collagen fibers: an orientation called trabecular

44
Q

when does Primary (woven) bone appear?

A

appears during development or during repair!

45
Q

What is the fate of primary bone?

A

to be replaced by mature lamellar bone or removed to make marrow cavity.

46
Q

Describe the microscopic organization of secondary bone

A

Lamellar bone is composed of layers of matrix that are parallel to each other, oriented 90 degrees from fibers in adjacent lamellae. (like a sheet of plywood, or a skateboard deck!)

47
Q

Where are the osteocytes in lamellar bones?

A

they are in lacunae between the lamellae layers! (stuck in the glue between layers of the skateboard deck!)

48
Q

The Microscopic orientation of all mature adult bone:

A

Lamellar.

49
Q

The composition of most compact bones:

A

they consists of osteons, or haversian systems in long lines around canals of nerves blood and lymph called haversian canals.

50
Q

lamellae of bone surrounding individual haversian canals

A

Osteons

51
Q

the contents of osteons

A

Layers of mature secodary bone wrapped around haversian canals that contain nerves, blood vessels and lymphatics

52
Q

the vertical connections between seperate lines of haversian canals

A

volkmanns canals

53
Q

if it is thick enough, trabecular spongy bone bone can also have..

A

osteons

54
Q

Enclose osteons, and are close to blood vessels in connective tissue coverings

A

circumferential lamellae

55
Q

The canals in the middle of Osteons

A

haversian canals

56
Q

the canals that connect haversian canal

A

volkmann canal

57
Q

the space between osteons (triangular space)

A

intersitial lamella

58
Q

the tissue between two osteons that are a little darker staining

A

Cement lines

59
Q

The type of bone development that is responsible for the development of flat bones of skull and mandible

A

intramembranous ossification

60
Q

How do long bones grow in diameter?

A

in the pericardium of the cartilage, the osteoblasts invade and begin to calcify the tissue and kill the cartilage and the osteoclasts then chew up the bones in the middle and the osteoblasts build it on the outside. This is called: INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION

61
Q

how can you make a bone wider and not make it heavier?

A

add on the outside and chew up on the inside (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) or INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION

62
Q

How do long bones grow longer?

A

they grow through endochondral ossification: replacement of cartilage model with bone! the cartilage continues to grow and is alive under the developing bone, creating a secondary center of ossification above the living cartilage model now called the epiphyseal growth plate.

63
Q

The layers of the epiphyseal growth plate

A

the resting cartilage, the proliferation zone, the maturation/hypertrophy zone, the calcification zone, and the ossification zone! (transition from cartilage to ossified bone!)

64
Q

Does the bone in the epiphyseal growth plate get remodeled?

A

yes deffinetly! it is being deposited and removed simultaneously in the growth plate! (osteoclasts / osteoblasts at work)

65
Q

Why do we every stop growin?

A

Systemic growth hormone production stops and chondroblast produced factors are lost as chondroblast proliferation stops leading to the closure of the epiphyseal growth plate when all of the cartilage becomes bone!

66
Q

bone growth will continue until closure of…

A

the epiphyseal growth plate

67
Q

how can the movement and stress on a bone affect growth?

A

the physical forces influence bone modeling that is constantly taking place with osteoclast/blasts

68
Q

how much bone is replaced in an adult?

A

about 10% of total bone is replaced yearly.

69
Q

the way that bone is replaced

A

osteoclasts degrade old osteons and osteoblasts generate newe osteons

70
Q

how is fracture repaired?

A

blood clot soon invaded by myofibroblasts, chondroblasts, osteoblasts; soft callus formed (loose CT and hyaline cartilage) then intramembranous and endochondral bone formation happens initially; then hard callus of primary woven bone and then remodeled to lamellar bone

71
Q

what is the overriding factor that balances bone resorption in the body?

A

calcium mobilization

72
Q

what is the condition where the bone formation balance doesn’t match resorption?

A

osteoporosis

73
Q

what is the cause of osteoporsis

A

activity of osteoclasts outpaces the now much lazy osteoblasts

74
Q

what happens in osteoporosis in bone?

A

decrease in bone mass with composistion of bone matrix is normal.

75
Q

factors associated with osteoporosis?

A

aging, decreased estrogen in postmenopausal women, inactivity (space flight)

76
Q

decreased bone resorption due to defective osteoclasts:

A

osteopetrosis

77
Q

the results of osteopetrosis

A

reduced marrow cavity, decreased blood formation, anemia and infection.

78
Q

what is the deffect in osteoclasts in osteopetrosis?

A

no ruffled border so can’t make the little cacoon

79
Q

disease with loss of articular cartilage

A

osteoarthritis (OA)

80
Q

what happens in osteoarthritis?

A

erosion of articular cartilage that reduces joint function: leads to bone remodeling, pain, and loss of activity.

81
Q

Describe the change in the joints that may lead to osteoarthritis?

A

the stable chondrocytes in the articular surface change and start acting more like transient growth cartilage, they proliferate and become Hypertrophic-like, turning over matrix more quickly. this leads to worse damage.
