ANAT Flashcards
MSK system
- Organ system for movement = muscular + skeletal system
- Provides:
- Form, support, stability, movement to body
- Supports and binds tissues and organs tgt
skeletal functions
- Main storage for calcium and phosphorous (electrolyte balance)
- Regulate mineral balance in bloodstream
- Fluctuation of minerals is HIGH = storage
- Minerals low = withdrawn from bone
- Hematopoiesis occurs in bones (blood formation)
- Yellow bone marrow – fatty connective tissue, in marrow cavity (ENERGY)
- Red bone marrow – hematopoiesis/ blood cell production
- Erythrocytes, PLT, leukocytes formed –> migrate to circ
- Protection of vital organs
- Provide structural support for body
- support, movement
- acid-base balance
- storage of energy
patho
- injury to bone, muscles etc
- arthritis (gout, RA, OA)
- osteoporosis
osteoblast
bone matrix synthesis and subsequent mineralization – BONE GROWTH
○ cells lining bone surface –> rest stage/ surround by matrix to form osteocytes
○ Derived from mesenchymal stem cells
osteocytes
Are osteoblasts that become incorporated within newly formed osteoid –> calcified bone
- bone maintenance, remodel, mechano-sensing (bone organisation) COMMUNICATE
○ situated deep in bone matrix
○ Maintain contact by canaliculi (extensive network of cell processes) contact with osteoblast & osteoclast
○ transduce message to initiate formation and resorption
osteoclast
RESORPTION of mineralised tissue – allow expansion, remodel
○ Multinucleated, like macrophage (derived from hematopoietic lineage)
○ Attached to bone surface at sites of active bone resorption
types of bones
long (leg)
short (appendages)
flat (sternum, skull)
irregular (vertebrae)
206 bones in human
Axial skeleton (80bones)
* Skull (cranial + skull bones) 29
* Vertebral column 26
* Thorax (ribs + sternum) 25
Appendicular skeleton (126 bones)
* Pectoral girdle - shoulder. UPPER limbs 64
* Pelvic girdle – hips. LOWER limbs 62
bone composition
- Bone tissue (Hard connective tissues, calcified = COMPACT / SPONGY)
- Periosteum (outer most covering)
- Marrow cavity (RED/YELLOW)
- endosteum (lines marrow cavity)
- Articular cartilage (covers bones end)
- Blood vessels
- nerves
part of bone
diaphysis (shaft)
epiphysis (end)
metaphysis (near end) & epiphysis (disc of cartilage –> line) child –> adult
bone tissue cells and matrix
- Cells
○ Osteocytes (Trapped in lacunae within bone matrix)
○ Osteoclasts (Inside to dissolve bone, allow for expansion)
○ Osteoblasts (outside) - Mineralised matrix
○ Organic
○ Inorganic
organic components of bone
○ Organic: protein fibers (collagen), cells, osteoid (by osteoblast = ground substances + collagen fibers)
contribute to structure, flexibility, tensile strength of bone
inorganic components of bone
○ Inorganic : hydroxyapatite (Ca10 (PO4)6 (OH)2), CaCO3, Mg, Na,K, F, SO4, CO3, OH
makes bones hard
compact bone
- found on Outer layer of ALL bones & shaft of long bones
- Almost no space b. layers of bone tissue
○ OSTEON (structural unit)
* Osteocytes, Lacunae, Canaliculi
○ Lamellae (collagen fibers)
* Concentric lamellae, interstitial lamellae
○ Central & perforating canals (in each osteon) - osteon: lamaellae alternating direction + osteocytes in between + lacunae + canaculi (connect the layers)
spongy bone tissue
- Interior of skull, vertebrae, sternum, pelvis, end of long bones
- Marrow cavities between trabeculae beams/ plate of bone
○ Contains RED bone marrow in cavity
○ Osteoblast (Surface), osteocyte, osteoclasts (found in specific parts, may be bigger)
periosteum
outermost
* Fibrous outer & osteogenic underneath layer
- thin layer of membranous connective tissue that covers all bones in the body.
- Not on articular cartilage
marrow cavity
- Holds red/ yellow bone marrow
- Has endosteum lining
RED: in flat, irregular bones. Ends of adult femur, humerus (HAEMATOPOIETIC)
YELLOW: fat tissue (differentiate into RED upon stress)
