Q

What proteins are commonly mutated that cause osteoporosis?

A

ATPase
Chloride channel Cathepsin K

22
Q

What do you have to be defined as to be clinically diagnosed with osteoporosis?

A

You have to be defined as having a BMD >2.5 SD below the average

23
Q

What drug is of great use in combating osteoporosis?

A

Bisphosphonates

24
Q

What are bisphosphonate?

A

They are non-hydrolyzable analogs of pyrophosphates

25
Q

What do bisphosphonates inhibit?

A

Mineralization

26
Q

What can bisphosphonates cause?

A

Osteonecrosis of the jaw

27
Q

What are the criteria needed to be classified with osteonecrosis of the jaw?

A
  1. Current or previous treatment with a bisphosphonate
  2. Exposed, necrotic bone in the maxillofacial region that has been present for 8 weeks
  3. No history of radiation therapy to the jaw
28
Q

What is the timeline of fracture healing

A
  1. Inflammatory/reactive phase: days to weeks
  2. Reparative phase: weeks to months
  3. Remodeling phase: months to years
29
Q

Is the pathogenesis of BONJ understood?

A

no

30
Q

What are the 4 stages of fracture healing? (VFTB)

A
  1. Vascular hematoma formation 2. Fibrocartilage callus formation 3. Tissue metaplasia
  2. Bone remodeling/turnover
31
Q

What cytokines are released when a hematoma is formed?

A

Tumor necrosis factor
Interleukins

32
Q

What does both TNF and IL release lead to?

A

Inflammatory cell recruitment and infiltration

33
Q

What tissue gets deposited when the fibrocartilage callus is formed?

A

Granulation tissue

34
Q

Some ends of the bone break will become hypoxic, when this occurs, what happens to the mesenchymal stem cells?

A

They start endochondral bone formation

35
Q

Where is the major source of osteogenic precursors found at?

A

Periosteum

36
Q

What are the three cells that can become osteogenic?

A

a. 1. Mesenchymal stem cells
b. 2. Pericyte
c. 3. Muscle satellite cells

37
Q

In formation of the bony callus, what happens to the cartilage?

A

It undergoes endochondral ossification

38
Q

Once the endochondral ossification is completed in the bony callus, what bone type is formed?

A

Woven bone

39
Q

Are genes expressed during fracture healing?

A

yes

40
Q

What are the 3 main signaling molecules that are important in fracture healing?

A

a. 1. Pro-inflammatory cytokines
b. 2. TGF beta
c. 3. Angiogenic factors

41
Q

When TNF and Interleukins get released, what does their release cause?

A
  1. Recruitment of other inflammatory cells and mesenchymal stem cells differentiation
  2. Apoptosis of hypertrophic chondrocytes
  3. Osteoclast formation
42
Q

What does TGF, BMP, and GDF proteins do?

A
  1. Promote ECM synthesis and assembly 2. Promote osteogenic differentiation
  2. Cell proliferation
43
Q

What angiogenic factors are released during fracture repair?

A

VEGF
PDGF
Angiopoietin

44
Q

What do these factors do?

A

Cause the promotion of vascular ingrowth
