Q

Haversian Canals

A

longitudinal canals

surrounded by concentric Lamellae

17
Q

Haversian Systems

A

arrangements of concentric lamellae
aka Osteons

18
Q

Lamellae

A

plates of mineralized extracellular matrix

19
Q

Lacunae
“lake”

A

spaces where osteocytes are located

20
Q

Perforating Canal

A

transverse canal that connects periosteum level into haversian canal

Periosteal Arteries and nerves

aka Volkmann’s Canal

21
Q

Trabeculae

A

irregular lattice pattern

makes it look spongy

22
Q

Nutrient Canal

A

Nutrient Arteries at oblique angle
leads from Nutrient Foramen, into Medullary Cavity

23
Q

Compact Bone

A

consists of Osteons

over spongy bone

strongest form

24
Q

Spongy Bone

A

consists of trabeculae

forms most of short, flat, irregular bone and epiphyses

resistance along the line of stress

25
Q

Ossification

A

process of bone tissue forming

aka osteogenesis

26
Q

2 Types of Embryonic Formation

A

Endochondral Ossification and Intramembranous Ossification

27
Q

Endochondral Ossification

A

bone replaces hyaline cartilage

  1. cartialge model develops (mesenchymal cells -> chondroblast -> cartilage model)
  2. cartilage model grows thru cell division @ shaft
  3. primary ossification center forms @ shaft
  4. development of medullary cavity by osteoclast
  5. secondary ossification center forms @ ends of bone
  6. articular cartilage and epiphyseal plate forms

ex) long bones

28
Q

Intramembranous Ossification

A

bone replaces mesenchyme

  1. osteoblasts secrete organic extracelluar matrix
  2. calcification (osteoblasts -> osteocyte)
  3. formation of spongy bone trabeculae (working around blood vessels)
  4. development of periosteum (mesenchyme at periphery of the bone)

ex) flat bones

29
Q

Interstitial Growth of Bone

A

growth in length

epiphyseal plate -> epiphyseal line

30
Q

Appositional Growth of Bone

A

growth in thickness

31
Q

Factors Affecting Bone Growth and Remodeling

A

minerals, vitamins, hormones, stress endured

32
Q

Pott’s Fracture

A

Fx of distal end of fibula w/ serious injury to distal tibial articulation

33
Q

Colles’ Fracture

A

Fx of distal end of radius; FOOSH

34
Q

Bone Repair Process

A
  1. Reactive Phase - hematoma formation
  2. Reparative Phase - fibrocartilaginous callus formation
  3. Reparative Phase - bony callus formation (spongy bone)
  4. Bone remodeling - peripheral spongy bone -> compact bone
35
Q

Roel of Ca2+

A

blood clotting
nerve/muscle cells function
cofactor for enzymatic processes

36
Q

When Ca2+ goes down…

A
  1. parathyroid gland detects
  2. cAMP⬆️
  3. PTH⬆️
  4. Osteoclasts bone resorption ⬆️
    Kidneys loss of Ca2+ ⬇️
    Calcitriol (vitamin D) ⬆️

Ca2+⬆️

37
Q

When Ca2+ goes up…

A
  1. thyroid gland detects
  2. parafollicular cells secrete Calcitonin
  3. osteoclasts activity ⬇️
    osteoblast activity ⬆️
    Ca2+ deposition ⬆️

Ca2+ lowers in bloodstream
