Bone Flashcards
Bone matrix composition
collagen 1, water, proteoglycan, other non collagenous proteins, hydroxyapatite mineral
woven bone
collagen fibers that make up in random orientation
present in fetal developement and repairment
lamellar bone
sheets of bone made from lamallae
1 directional sheets every layer but different differections per layer for strength
osteoblasts characteristics
respond/secrete high levels of growth factors and cytokine
high levels of alkaline phosphatase
bone forming
seen on cell surfaces whether active or inactive
high amounts of ER and golgi to modify synthesize export proteins for bone formation
osteocyte functions
mechanosensors, secrete alot of cytokines for osteoblasts and osteoclasts modulation, detect microdamage
